BBH Select Series - Large Cap Fund Quarterly Update - Q4 2023

The benchmark S&P 500 Index (“the Index”) rebounded from a weak third quarter to end the year with a gain of 11.69% over the final three months, lead primarily by the Real Estate, Information Technology, and Financials sectors, which were up 18.83%, 17.17%, and 14.03%, respectively. The only detractor for the period was the Energy sector, which was down -6.94% and offset all the gains made earlier in the year. This reflected the sharp downturn in oil and natural gas prices, which has been pressured by strong supplies and concerns about tepid demand.
