Commentary Highlights
June 30, 2025- Markets: U.S. equities rebounded strongly from tariff and geopolitical scares to deliver healthy gains in the second quarter. The S&P 500 returned 10.9% in the quarter, swinging from a near bear market to an all-time high. The benchmark Russell Midcap Growth Index advanced a market-leading 18.2% as risk-on sentiment took hold. Growth stocks led across market caps, with the Russell Midcap Growth Index outperforming its value counterpart by more than 1,200 basis points.
- Contributors: Holdings in Broadcom, Robinhood Markets, CrowdStrike and Snowflake. Stock selection in the information technology (IT), financials and consumer staples sectors, overweight to IT.
- Detractors: Holdings in Vertex Pharmaceuticals, UnitedHealth Group and TJX. Stock selection in the health care and consumer discretionary sectors.
- Outlook: While the full impacts of updated tariff policies with U.S. trading partners have yet to be felt globally, we feel confident that our holdings with strong market positions, value-based offerings and pricing power are well-positioned to weather tariff-related cost inflation.

Composite Performance
Calendar Year Returns
As of 09/30/2025
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.
