A Deep Dive into Lattice Strategies LLC Q4 2018 vs. Q1 2019 13F Holdings Comparison
Ava Hoppe | 23 April, 2023
Lattice Strategies LLC releases its 13F filing every quarter, which discloses their holdings the last quarter and gives an opportunity to track the fund's buying and selling activities. In this blog post, we will analyze and compare Lattice Strategies LLC's Q4 2018 and Q1 2019 holdings using their 13F filing. We will also discuss the changes made by the fund in its individual holdings, sectors, and the reasons behind those decisions.
First, let's review the top ten holdings of Lattice Strategies LLC in both quarters. In Q4 2018, Lattice Strategies LLC's top five holdings by value were RODM, ROSC, ROUS, EWT, and EWH. In comparison, in Q1 2019, the top five holdings by value were RODM, ROUS, RORE, EWT, and EMLC. We can see that Lattice Strategies LLC maintained their position in RODM and ROUS but shifted its weightage from ROSC to RORE.
Moreover, in Q1 2019, Lattice Strategies LLC added RORE, which is "LATTICE STRATEGIES TR" stock, to their top ten holdings. It's worth noting that the stock's value increased from $610k to $638k or by 4.6%. This decision shows that Lattice Strategies LLC saw potential in RORE and believed that it would perform well.
In contrast, Lattice Strategies LLC reduced its stake in ROAM, "LATTICE STRATEGIES TR", by 26%. This decision could be due to various reasons, such as negative news coverage, concerns about the management, a change in market conditions, or re-balancing. That said, we cannot say for sure why Lattice Strategies LLC reduced its stake in ROAM.
Moving forward, Lattice Strategies LLC increased its position in ECH, "ISHARES INC", from 892 to 1318, accounting for a 47.8% change. This decision could be related to the positive outlook for the Chilean economy and markets or expectations for the underlying assets held by the fund to deliver favorable gains.
Furthermore, in the Q4 2018 to Q1 2019 comparison, we note that Lattice Strategies LLC had a position in some stocks in Q4 2018 but closed it in Q1 2019. For example, Lattice Strategies LLC held 47050 shares of EWM, "ISHARES INC", in Q4 2018 worth $0. But they sold EWM during Q1 2019, valued at $1.4 million. We cannot say for sure why Lattice Strategies LLC decided to sell the EWM shares. Still, it's fair to assume that it had to do with their macroeconomic outlook or other stock-specific risks.
Overall, analyzing Lattice Strategies LLC's 13F filing shows that the fund made certain changes to its holdings, but its top five holdings remained relatively unchanged between Q4 2018 and Q1 2019. This stability could be due to market conditions, investment strategy, or their expectations for the underlying assets. However, it's important to remember that the 13F filings are released after a 45-day lag, and the fund could have already traded the stocks they held at the end of Q1 2019. That said, the 13F filings give us an insight into the fund's buying and selling activities and can be a valuable tool for investors who want to emulate the fund's investment strategy.
