What is happening

Recent company-specific developments and publisher coverage.

July 17, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF declined modestly, weighed down by broad risk-off sentiment as tech and AI-linked stocks retreated on Friday. Key holdings Alphabet (GOOG, 5.4%) and Microsoft (MSFT, 3.9%) faced pressure—Alphabet fell on delayed Gemini 3.5 Pro rollout, raising competitive concerns versus OpenAI and Anthropic, while global semiconductor stocks extended a multi-week slide amid AI ROI concerns. Offsetting headwinds, top holding Philip Morris (PM, 4.2%) surged on strong earnings, and Aon (AON, 3.6%) rallied after beating revenue and EPS estimates. The XLF financial sector ETF edged higher in after-hours trading, buoyed by solid bank earnings earlier in the week.

-1.1073

July 15, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF closed essentially flat, edging down just 0.14%, as the fund's diversified large-cap holdings navigated a mixed session shaped by a cooler-than-expected June CPI report (headline inflation fell to 3.5% from 4.2%) that lifted broader equities. Key holdings saw divergent action: Goldman Sachs surged ~7.7% on a strong Q2 earnings beat with record asset management fees, while Aon advanced on a JPMorgan price target raise and a new API integration announcement. However, Becton Dickinson declined nearly 3% on analyst pressure and Apple slipped after a KeyBanc downgrade. In after-hours, EQTY is trading down 2%, tracking broader market caution amid ongoing Iran-related geopolitical tensions and elevated oil prices.

-0.1361

July 10, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF edged higher on Friday, outperforming the broader financial sector (XLF) as the S&P 500 closed near 52-week highs. The ETF's concentrated large-cap portfolio faced mixed crosscurrents: top holding Intercontinental Exchange (ICE, ~4.5%) slid ~4% on softer June volume trends and analyst estimate cuts, while Google (GOOG, ~5.4%) benefited from record World Cup-driven search traffic ahead of its July 23 earnings. Aon (AON, ~3.6%) declared a quarterly dividend and scheduled Q2 results for July 29, adding a near-term catalyst for the fund.

0.7405

July 9, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF edged modestly higher, outperforming a mixed financial services sector as the XLF closed roughly flat. The ETF's concentrated, quality-oriented portfolio faces a nuanced backdrop: top holding Intercontinental Exchange (ICE, ~4.5%) slid roughly 4% after analyst estimate cuts tied to softer June trading volumes, while Alphabet (GOOG, ~5.4%) held steady amid record World Cup search traffic and continued AI optimism. Charles Schwab (SCHW, ~3.7%) remained resilient near recent highs after strong Q1 results, and Philip Morris (PM, ~4.2%) edged lower ahead of its upcoming Q2 report. Broader macro uncertainty—including renewed U.S.-Iran strikes reigniting oil and inflation concerns—kept investor sentiment cautious heading into a pivotal bank earnings season next week.

0.3894

July 8, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF closed modestly lower as broad market risk-off sentiment weighed on its diversified large-cap portfolio, with the S&P 500 selling off after President Trump declared the U.S.-Iran interim peace deal 'over,' sending oil prices surging over 5% and rattling equities. The fund's top holdings faced mixed headwinds: Alphabet and Amazon each declined as tech and consumer sentiment soured, while Philip Morris—another top position—bucked the trend, rising on strong earnings momentum. Meanwhile, Intercontinental Exchange reported robust June trading statistics with open interest up 20% year-over-year, and Charles Schwab's STAX index hit a four-year high, providing some fundamental support for the ETF's financial-sector-heavy holdings even as geopolitical uncertainty dominated the session.

-0.8073

July 7, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF edged down modestly, closing off 0.42% as broader U.S. equities faced headwinds from a broad semiconductor selloff — with chip stocks like AMD and Intel dropping over 7% — and rising Treasury yields, with the 30-year briefly crossing 5%. Key holdings contributed mixed performance: top position ICE gained ~1.6% on strong June trading volume data showing 20% year-over-year open interest growth, while Charles Schwab rose ~3.7% after its STAX retail investor sentiment index hit a four-year high. However, Microsoft weighed on the portfolio amid a securities fraud class action and ongoing Copilot concerns, and Google's Alphabet faced modest softness despite analysts calling it ~15% undervalued.

-0.4197

July 6, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF edged higher on Monday, touching a new 52-week high of $28.62, as several of its top holdings rallied on a broad market advance led by a semiconductor rebound. Key holdings Alphabet (GOOG, 5.4%) and Amazon (AMZN, 4.8%) benefited from positive AI momentum, while Intercontinental Exchange (ICE, 4.5%) released strong June statistics showing 20% year-over-year open interest growth. The broader financial sector ETF (XLF) also firmed, and investors are now focused on upcoming Fed minutes and Q2 earnings season as potential catalysts for the fund's diversified large-cap portfolio.

0.6329

July 1, 2026Kovitz Core Equity ETF closed modestly higher, touching near its 52-week high of $28.37 on the first day of Q3, as several of its top holdings delivered positive momentum. Key positions Philip Morris International benefited from a landmark FDA authorization of 20 Zyn nicotine pouch products with reduced-risk claims—a first for the category—while Intercontinental Exchange announced plans to launch AI compute futures contracts with NATIVX, signaling innovation in its product suite. The broader market opened Q3 cautiously, with the S&P 500 finishing a record-setting Q2 and investors weighing softer ADP jobs data (98K vs. 118K expected), Fed Chair Warsh's ECB remarks, and ongoing U.S.-Iran diplomatic uncertainty.
