The strategy returns shown are preliminary composite returns, subject to future revision (downward or upward). Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. An investment in this strategy can lose value.  

Performance data represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate with market conditions, and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your shares. Periods less than one year are not annualized. Performance results are for the composite which includes all actual, fully discretionary accounts with substantially similar investment policies and objectives managed to the composite's investment strategy. Composite returns are stated in U.S. dollars and assume reinvestment of any dividends, interest income, capital gains, or other earnings. The composite may include account(s) that are gross of fees and pure gross of fees. “Pure” gross-of-fee returns do not reflect the deduction of any expenses, including transaction costs. A traditional (or "true") gross-of-fee return reflects performance after the reduction of transaction costs but before the reduction of the investment advisory fee. The gross-of-fee return may include a blend of "true" gross-of-fee returns for non-wrap accounts and "pure” gross-of-fee returns for wrap accounts. Net-of-fee returns is reduced by a model “wrap fee” (3.0% is the maximum anticipated wrap fee for equity and balanced portfolios) which includes trading expenses as well as investment management, administrative and custodial fees. The model wrap fee used represents the highest anticipated wrap fee applicable to the strategy. Actual fees and account minimums may vary.  

For fee schedules, contact your financial professional, or if you enter into an agreement directly with Franklin Templeton Private Portfolio Group, LLC (“FTPPG”), refer to FTPPG’s Form ADV Part 2A disclosure document. Management and performance of individual accounts may vary for reasons that include the existence of different implementation practices and model requirements in different investment programs.

Commentary Highlights

September 30, 2026
  • Markets:  International equities produced mixed results as a sharp reversal in momentum-driven AI stocks pressured growth companies while rising rates and inflation concerns supported value. The MSCI EAFE Index gained 0.8%, while the MSCI EAFE Growth Index fell 2.5%, trailing the MSCI EAFE Value Index by 680 basis points.
  • Contributors:  Komatsu, Agnico Eagle Mines, Recruit Holdings, not holding Murata Manufacturing and Nestle.
  • Detractors:  Prysmian, Kioxia, Infineon, Tokyo Electron and AstraZeneca,. Stock selection in information technology (IT), industrials, health care.
  • Outlook:  We believe the third-quarter AI-related selloff was primarily rotational and sentiment driven. We remain focused on durable growth businesses positioned to benefit from AI investment, while diversifying exposure and managing portfolio risk in a narrow, trend-driven market.
