In the third quarter, the market digested the notable first-half of the year returns and a substantial increase in interest rates. The soft landing scenario and strong gains in July gave way to higher for longer interest rates, recession fears and a broad correction in August and September. All Argent strategies (Large Cap, Dividend Select, Mid Cap, SMID and Focused Small Cap) outperformed their benchmarks net of fees in the third quarter.
