Ava Hoppe | 8 May, 2023
Bristlecone Advisors, LLC has released their Q3 2022 vs. Q4 2022 13F Holdings report, and it's time to analyze the data. The report details the changes in holdings of various funds and provides a glimpse into which companies are thriving and which are not. In this article, we'll take a closer look at some of the companies that saw an increase or decrease in their holdings and what this means for them.
First, we have Microsoft Corp (MSFT), which saw a slight increase of 3.6% in their shares from Q3 to Q4. The value of their shares also increased from $77,773,000 in Q3 to $80,536,000 in Q4. This increase may be attributed to the continued growth of cloud computing and the demand for Microsoft's services in this area. Microsoft's strong financials and positive outlook could be the reason behind Bristlecone's decision to increase their holdings.
On the other hand, Apple Inc (AAPL) saw a decrease in their shares from Q3 to Q4, dropping by 12.8%. The value of their shares also decreased from $33,731,000 in Q3 to $29,416,000 in Q4. While Apple is still one of the most valuable companies in the world, recent concerns over a slowdown in iPhone demand and the impact of the pandemic on their supply chain may have contributed to the decline in their holdings.
Amazon.com Inc (AMZN) saw a similar decrease in their holdings, with a drop of 22.7%. The value of their shares decreased from $19,299,000 in Q3 to $14,915,000 in Q4. Like Apple, Amazon is still a powerhouse in the world of e-commerce, but recent antitrust concerns and increased competition from other retailers may have contributed to the decline in their holdings.
Not all companies saw a decrease in their holdings, however. WisdomTree Trust (DLN) saw an impressive increase of 23.5% in their shares from Q3 to Q4. The value of their shares also increased from $12,008,000 in Q3 to $14,827,000 in Q4. This increase could be attributed to the company's recently announced acquisition of ACSI Funds, which will expand their offerings and strengthen their position in the market.
Another company that saw a significant increase in their holdings was United Parcel Service, Inc (UPS), with a 181% increase in their shares from Q3 to Q4. The value of their shares also increased from $2,542,000 in Q3 to $7,141,000 in Q4. This increase could be attributed to the growth of e-commerce and the demand for shipping and logistics services.
In conclusion, Bristlecone Advisors' Q3 2022 vs. Q4 2022 13F Holdings report provides valuable insights into the changes in holdings of various funds. While some companies saw an increase in their holdings, others saw a decline. The reasons behind these changes are varied and can be attributed to various factors, including market conditions, financial performance, and company-specific developments.
