Commentary
Growth stocks surged in Q2 2025, rebounding from the tariff shock at the beginning of April to end the quarter at record highs. Tech and AI-focused sectors drove the growth rally as easing trade tensions, including a temporary pause with China, helped restore investor confidence. While volatility related to tariffs persisted through the quarter, investors leaned back into resilient earnings, innovation, and dampened geopolitical risk amidst a better-than-expected macroeconomic backdrop. The Commerce MidCap Growth Fund’s return of 11.94% underperformed the Russell Mid Cap Growth Index return of 18.20%.
Stock selection detracted from the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s strongest stocks were NRG Energy, Inc. (1.17%), Amphenol Corporation Class A (1.15%), and Howmet Aerospace Inc. (2.15%), returning 68.87%, 50.82%, and 43.57%, respectively. The Fund’s top detractors were Chemed Corporation (0.98%), Church & Dwight Co., Inc. (1.12%), and not owning Coinbase Global, Inc. Class A (0.00%), returning -20.80%, -12.43%, and 103.50%, respectively.
The Fund’s sector allocation was neutral to the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s 0.80% underweight in the Energy sector, which returned -9.75%, added to performance as it was the worst-performing sector. The Index had a 4.11% weight in the Energy sector. However, The Fund’s 1.67% underweight in the Communication Services sector, which returned 36.47%, detracted from performance as it was one of the better performing sectors.
