In a market buoyed by forces that may not endure — geopolitical oil shocks, election-year generosity, and AI exuberance — portfolio manager Darren Sissons is practicing the ancient investor's art of looking where others are not looking. Rather than chasing what has already risen, he turns toward the neglected corners of the market, where underperformance has quietly created opportunity. His counsel is not alarm but calibration: small, deliberate adjustments that honor both the gains already made and the uncertainty that lies ahead.
