Major Purchases This Quarter
Citizens Financial Group demonstrated significant buying activity during Q3 2026, most notably in the Industrials sector. The investor increased their position in SPCX (SPACE EXPLORATION TECHN CORP) by an enormous 7323.04%, suggesting a strong confidence in this emerging sector. This substantial allocation change can be viewed in more detail on the investor's page.
Conversely, the investor's stake in WFC (WELLS FARGO & CO NEW) saw a significant reduction, with a -61.8% change in holdings. This indicates a strategic decision to exit or reduce exposure to this major Financial Services company.
Other notable purchases included a large increase in XOM (EXXONMOBIL HOLDINGS CORP) with a 591.62% change, a substantial increase in APH (AMPHENOL CORP NEW) by 281.68%, and significant additions to SUB (ISHARES TR) with a 21.45% increase, as well as a considerable build-up in VEA (VANGUARD TAX MANAGED INTL FD) allocation of 5.61%.
Significant Sales and Reductions
While the investor showed buying interest in several areas, they also disposed of considerable holdings during the quarter. The most prominent sale was observed in AGGY (WISDOMTREE TR), where the position decreased by a staggering -92.83%, effectively exiting this holding.
Other sectors witnessed notable reductions. In the Financial Services sector, besides the significant decrease in WFC, the investor also reduced their position in LDI (LOANDEPOT INC) by -148.62%, indicating a shift away from this specific type of financial stock.
Furthermore, the investor decreased their stake in UBER (UBER TECHNOLOGIES INC) by -75.5%, and there was a moderate reduction in IWH (ISHARES TR) with a -4.84% change, although the latter's data appears duplicated in the provided 'changed_holdings'.

On the sell side, besides the already mentioned AGGY and LDI, the investor disposed of HONA (HONDA MOTOR CO) during the quarter, although specific percentage data wasn't provided in the 'changed_holdings' list.
It's also worth noting that the investor disposed of other holdings like HII (HUGHES INC) and RVMD (RIVUMD INC), though again, the exact percentage changes weren't detailed in the provided data.
