Eli Lilly's stock price has underperformed this year, much of it on the back of drug pricing concerns, potential tariff impacts and, perhaps, less enthusiasm for GLP-1 drugs. The primary drag for the quarter was Oracle, accounting for almost all of the Portfolio's relative underperformance in Q4, completely reversing its performance from the prior quarter and giving back all of the gains experienced in Q3. Polen Capital initiated a 2.25% position in Intuitive Surgical who maintain a de facto monopoly in soft tissue robotic surgery globally.

IWB mirrors the broad US market, with tech-heavy exposure and no unique drivers, making it sensitive to macroeconomic trends. Fed policy remains cautious and data-dependent, with rate cuts unlikely before September, contributing to ongoing market uncertainty. Trade tensions, geopolitical risks, and recent fund outflows point to heightened volatility and weak market sentiment for IWB.
