• Valuations reflect expectations for “peaking”profitability/returns,which weview
as overly-pessimistic.
• Easing regulatory burdens, rising capital returns, steady credit trends and revamped cost
structuresarelikely to support higher profitability andreturns in the intermediateterm.
• Banks remainunloved bythe sell-side andunder-owned byinvestors.
• Divergence in valuation spreads between mega-cap and mid-cap double digit earnings growth
companies has presented opportunities to add to higher quality cyclicals in the Consumer
Discretionary, Materials, andIndustrials sectors.
• In particular, we are finding value in growth retailers that cater to lower income consumers
(Dollar Stores, Auto Parts retail), select Engineering & Construction companies exposed to
rising Utility capitalspending,andMaterialscompanies exposedto Agricultural endmarkets.
