Read on the quarter
What the moves add up to
Capital Research Global Investors’ Q2 2026 activity points to a rotation toward AI- and platform-led megacap tech, even as several marquee holdings were pared. The most notable trims were Broadcom (weight 5.96%, share count down 2.5%), Microsoft (4.93%, down 1.4%), Eli Lilly & (3.49%, down 15.3%), Apple (2.4%, down 7.2%), and Applied Matls (2.23%, down 24.8%).
That de-risking in select names was more than offset by increases in other large technology and communications leaders. Nvidia was added to 5.66% (up 5.0%), Alphabet added to 3.12% (up 8.7%), and Meta Platforms added to 3.11% (up 28.2%). Additional adds in the top set included Amazon at 4.01% (up 1.8%) and Philip Morris Intl at 2.13% (up 5.6%), alongside a further Alphabet position at 2.11% (up 6.4%). With the portfolio top-10 concentration at 37.0%, these moves suggest reinforcement at the core rather than broad deconcentration, supported by 35 new positions and 148 adds alongside 206 trims and 68 exits.
Context
How to read this filing
A Form 13F is a quarterly snapshot institutional managers with over $100M in US-listed assets must file within 45 days of quarter end. It shows long equity positions only: no short book, no cash, no non-US listings, no timing inside the quarter. Treat it as a delayed map of where the manager's conviction sat on the reporting date — not a live portfolio, and not a buy list.
