Overall, the company made significant changes to its investment portfolio during the Q3 and Q4 period, investing in companies and reducing stakes in others. Conversely, it sold all its shares of ALLETE Inc (ALE), all its options in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufactu (TSM), and all shares in Amgen Inc (AMGN). Campbell & CO Investment Adviser LLC sold these shares in the hope of purchasing other shares that have a better opportunity for growth.
Campbell & Co. accumulated the most significant stake in Textainer Group Holdings during the period. The shipping container leasing company has seen rough waters over the years, but the company's return to stability has come with excellent financial results. During the third quarter of 2022, Textainer Group Holdings had reported earnings per share of $8.6 million on revenue of $254.9 million. The revenue was 40.5% higher year over year, while earnings per share grew by 550.6%.
Additionally, the company acquired more shares in Veritiv Corporation, which distributes print paper, packaging, and other facility products across the United States through distribution centers. Veritiv's central difference is in partnering with manufacturers to develop custom and innovative products that will be sold to end-users at a lower price than competitors.

In contrast, the firm significantly reduced its shares in Nucor Corporation (NUE), a steel production firm, by almost 46%.
