Whitepaper Series
In this multi-part whitepaper series, the Nuance team makes the case for Value Investing.
September, 2026
A handful of mega-cap growth stocks now dominate benchmark performance and investor returns. Increasingly, they also define the risk profile of many portfolios. In our view, this environment has created an unusually attractive entry point into a diversifying asset class with a long-term record of leadership and a durable advantage: Mid Cap Value.
September, 2026
Capital has crowded into a concentrated set of exposures including mega-cap growth stocks, artificial intelligence (AI) capex beneficiaries, passive S&P 500 indexes, and leveraged private-market vehicles. These approaches are not inherently flawed, but their risks may be underappreciated, and the scale of capital flows has starved other areas of the market. Value investing, a long-established discipline, has been a particular casualty of this neglect, but history suggests this doesn’t persist indefinitely. Prior periods of extreme style dispersion have given way to a renewed relevance for strategies grounded in valuation and risk discipline. If prior cycles are a guide, the coming decade should favor disciplined value investors.
