- Due to the large weight new additions of mega-cap stocks Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta in the Russell 1000 Value benchmark, we thought it would be helpful to provide our analysis. - We believe our focus on valuation discipline was a foundational pillar of our process over that time period. - Rather than entering the benchmark at a discount in 2025, each of these stocks are more expensive than the benchmark upon entry. - We also discuss how this change also occurs at a time when growth stocks trade at close to historic premiums to value stocks.

Powell Puts September Rate Cuts Firmly In Play
Andy Richman's update on the upcoming September Federal Open Market Committee meeting.

- This summer, we found it difficult to find an area that has experienced a greater historic performance than high beta stocks. - We discuss how beta, or stocks with greater than average measured price swings, may be tied to the fundamental characteristics of these stocks. - We also show how investors have embraced and shed risk in dynamic fashion over the past year to place the performance of client investments in context.

- Why would several mega-cap stocks that have been classified as 100% growth in the past be classified, even partially, in value? - FTSE Russell uses an objective style and methodology that splits the Russell 1000® Index into growth and value based primarily on earnings growth, sales growth, and price-to-book measures (the last reconstitution was June 27, 2025). - We discuss the reasons for these changes and why they occurred. - We are aware of the changes, and our focus remains committed to the same process and mandate that has stood for decades.
