Contributors to relative performance: Health Care - Healthcare outperformed this quarter due to selection effect. Biotechnology and pharmaceuticals holdings outperformed while being underweight the index.

Detractors from relative performance: Real Estate - Eagle continues to find growth utilities and growth REITs to be the most attractive, since the yield, not future opportunities dominate total valuations in these spaces.
