  "account": "Sands Capital's Q2 2026 investor letter revealed Carpenter Technology Corporation (NYSE:CRS) to be a standout performer, contributing 1.7% to the fund's 1.7% quarter return. The specialty metals manufacturer, which specializes in providing nickel alloys for the aerospace industry, saw significant operating leverage in the third fiscal quarter due to a strong recovery in aerospace equipment sales. The aerospace equipment cycle's revival bolstered Specialty Alloys Operations, which generated an 86% incremental margin in a quarter when volume grew at its strongest rate since the post-COVID aerospace recovery. Carpenter Technology's leadership in specialized materials, pricing power, and exposure to a multi-year aerospace production rebound were highlighted as key factors driving the company's success. Despite not ranking among the top 40 most popular stocks among hedge funds, Carpenter Technology Corporation (NYSE:CRS) holds a 4.2% portfolio weight in the Sands Capital Select Growth Fund.",
