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.

About the Team

ClearBridge Investments

ClearBridge Investments is an active equity manager offering a broad range of strategies across global developed and emerging markets, local markets, and income. ClearBridge manages diversified, high-conviction portfolios through collaborative fundamental research to meet the needs of some of the world's largest asset owners and financial intermediary platforms. We invest as long-term, risk-aware business owners and seek to deliver consistency of process and performance for our clients through market cycles. A focus on durability drives everything we do; from the business models of the companies we own, to the holding periods of our portfolios, to the stability and longevity of our investment professionals.

Commentary Highlights

June 30, 2026
  • Markets:  U.S. equities advanced sharply in the second quarter, supported by improved risk appetite and continued AI-related capital spending. Mid cap growth stocks participated in the rally but lagged the strongest areas of the market, with the benchmark Russell Midcap Growth Index returning 14.5% versus 16.7% for the Russell 1000 Growth Index and 25.7% for the Russell 2000 Growth Index.
  • Contributors:  Holdings in CrowdStrike, Snowflake and Vertiv. An overweight to IT, lack of exposure to energy and underweight to health care.
  • Detractors:  Holdings in L3Harris Technologies, not owning Astera Labs and Datadog. Stock selection in IT, industrials and communication services.
  • Outlook:  We expect volatility to ease in the third quarter, and we are encouraged that some outsize moves driven more by flows and momentum than fundamentals have begun to reverse. While mindful of the consequences of increased portfolio turnover, we believe repositioning efforts should support positive long-term performance and greater stability of returns over time.
