What institutions actually bought last quarter

Measured in shares rather than dollars, what did the big funds accumulate?

What we found

Measured properly, in shares rather than market value, the accumulation list looks nothing like the one you will read elsewhere. Several of the biggest apparent 'buys' by value were funds quietly reducing their share count into a rising price.

How we computed it
  • Change in total shares held across all 105 funds, Q4 2025 to Q1 2026.
  • Restricted to companies where funds already held a position and where the current holding exceeds $2bn, so a tiny position doubling does not top the chart.
What this CANNOT tell you
  • A share count can rise because of a stock split. We have not adjusted for corporate actions, so treat any single extreme figure with suspicion and check the company.
  • This is 13F data: long US equity only, filed up to 45 days late.
