  "account": "Polaris Capital Management's Q2 2026 investor letter highlights ORIX Corporation (NYSE:IX) as one of its top holdings. ORIX, a Japanese financial services company operating in Japan, the United States, and global markets, had a strong quarter, with its stock rising 46.86% over the past 52 weeks. The company's performance was bolstered by the sale of Orix Bank to Daiwa Securities for roughly $2.3 billion, a buyback program, and an increase in profit guidance for FY2027. ORIX also benefited from the gains of its OQCI Fund and its investment in Toshiba, which sold a significant stake in chipmaker Kioxia. Despite ORIX not appearing on Polaris' list of the 40 most popular stocks among hedge funds, the company's potential is recognized, though Polaris believes AI stocks offer greater upside potential with less downside risk.",
