Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
Stock selection and sector allocation decisions were positive contributors to performance relative to the Russell 1000 Value Index (C$). Portfolio holdings in the energy, industrials and business services, materials, and information technology sectors outperformed, offsetting relative weakness in financials and utilities. Stock selection drove the energy sector's position as the largest contributor to relative performance, while stock selection and an underweight position made the financials sector the largest detractor. Returns were weaker in Canadian dollar terms due to hedging as the U.S. dollar strengthened versus the Canadian dollar during the quarter.
