Quarterly Attribution Commentaries – 4Q24

21 January 2025

The fourth quarter marked the conclusion of an extraordinary two-year rally for U.S. equities, with the S&P 500 achieving consecutive annual gains of over 20%. During 2024, all of Argent’s strategies delivered double-digit returns, with Dividend Select, SMID Cap, and Focused Small Cap outperforming their benchmarks net of fees. While Large Cap and Mid Cap trailed their respective benchmarks, they continued to generate strong absolute returns.

Looking ahead, Argent’s strategies remain well-positioned for continued success, consistently outperforming their benchmarks net of fees since inception. This sustained achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to disciplined investment practices and creating enduring value for our clients.
