During the quarter, relative to the sector weights in this benchmark, the portfolio was overweight the Consumer Discretionary sector, modestly overweight the Financials, Industrials, Health Care, and Technology sectors, underweight the Consumer Staples, Energy, Telecommunication Services, and Utilities sectors, and essentially market weight the Materials sector.
