  "account": "First Pacific Advisors recently unveiled its Q2 2026 investor letter, showcasing the impressive performance of the FPA Queens Road Small Cap Value Fund. The fund's growth accelerated relative to large-cap stocks, particularly in the small-cap technology sector, which surged nearly 100% in the first half of 2026. Small-cap earnings growth also outpaced that of large-cap companies. The fund's technology holdings contributed 14.87 percentage points to the fund's 16.62% return, compared to the Russell 2000 Value Index's 12.73% return on a fully invested basis. The fund trimmed appreciated technology holdings amid the AI-driven rally while maintaining a bottom-up approach and avoiding beaten-down SaaS stocks. Vontier (NYSE:VNT), a small-cap technology company, was highlighted in the fund's investor letter, with its shares trading between $27.25 and $48.20 over the last 52 weeks. The fund stated that Vontier's shares were attractively priced at roughly 9x earnings. Despite being held by a few hedge funds, the fund believes Vontier's potential sales to the convenience store end market and its position within the AI sector make it an overlooked value stock.",
