“We sold Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW) and thereby reduced our subsector weight in software. We see risks to the consumption model from further spending cuts and rationalizations across their core verticals which include finance, technology and media. These three verticals have contributed to the weaknesses in the digital advertising space. We have increasing concerns that even the company’s conservative Fiscal Year 2023 guidance for revenue growth could now be pressured, as customer spending cuts have accelerated.”
