Analysis of Q4 2024 13F filings reveals a notable increase in institutional ownership of S&P Global Inc. (SPGI), signaling positive sentiment among fund managers. Across all tracked funds, aggregate holdings in SPGI increased by 1,930,334 shares, a 2.66% rise from the previous quarter, to a total of 74,454,527 shares. A closer look at a recent sample of 29 filers corroborates this trend, with a net increase of 104,686 shares. This accumulation was driven by significant new positions, such as Trivest Advisors Ltd acquiring 36,400 shares, and substantial additions from existing holders like the Teacher Retirement System of Texas, which increased its position by 50,165 shares. While this pattern indicates broad-based buying, it is important to note the limitations of 13F data, which excludes short positions and complex derivatives. The exit of Magnetar Financial LLC from its SPGI position serves as a reminder that conviction is not universal. Nonetheless, the overall data points to a clear trend of institutional accumulation in SPGI during the fourth quarter.
