At Holdings Channel, we have reviewed the latest batch of the 23 most recent 13F filings for the 03/31/2025 reporting period, and noticed that Palantir Technologies Inc (Symbol: PLTR) was held by 14 of these funds. When hedge fund managers appear to be thinking alike, we find it is a good idea to take a closer look.
Before we proceed, it is important to point out that 13F filings do not tell the whole story, because these funds are only required to disclose their long positions with the SEC, but are not required to disclose their short positions. A fund making a bearish bet against a stock by shorting calls, for example, might also be long some amount of stock as they trade around their overall bearish position. This long component could show up in a 13F filing and everyone might assume the fund is bullish, but this tells only part of the story because the bearish/short side of the position is not seen.
Having given that caveat, we believe that looking at groups of 13F filings can be revealing, especially when comparing one holding period to another. Below, let's take a look at the change in PLTR positions, for this latest batch of 13F filers:

Looking beyond these particular funds in this one batch of most recent filers, we tallied up the PLTR share count in the aggregate among all of the funds which held PLTR at the 03/31/2025 reporting period (out of the 2,807 we looked at in total). We then compared that number to the sum total of PLTR shares those same funds held back at the 12/31/2024 period, to see how the aggregate share count held by hedge funds has moved for PLTR. We found that between these two periods, funds reduced their holdings by 392,771 shares in the aggregate, from 74,949,247 down to 74,556,476 for a share count decline of approximately -0.52%. The overall top three funds holding PLTR on 03/31/2025 were:
| » | Fund | Shares of PLTR Held |

We'll keep following the latest 13F filings by hedge fund managers and bring you interesting stories derived from a look at the aggregate information across groups of managers between filing periods. While looking at individual 13F filings can sometimes be misleading due to the long-only nature of the information, the sum total across groups of funds from one reporting period to another can be a lot more revealing and relevant, providing interesting stock ideas that merit further research, like Palantir Technologies Inc (Symbol: PLTR).
