13F stock ownership research
MICROSOFT CORP (MSFT) institutional holdings and quarterly fund activity
This reverse-ownership view starts with MSFT and shows every matching position in SnowballHare's tracked 13F manager universe. It connects holder-level changes with four-quarter history and company research without presenting delayed filings as live ownership.
Deterministic analysis from filing data
MSFT holder activity in the latest 13F cycle
MSFT's current holder list starts with reported scale. 6 active managers reported $4.1B in aggregate value. Pershing Square is the largest tracked holder. The top five account for 99.9% of tracked value.
MSFT's most visible fund moves were not evenly distributed. Third Point made the largest measured share-count move at -100.0%. 1 manager initiated positions, led by Pershing Square. 1 manager exited, including Third Point. These filings describe quarter-end positions and do not confirm what managers held after the reporting date.
MSFT's ownership trend is more informative than one filing alone. Holder count remains near the trailing average of 6.0. Aggregate value also moves with quarter-end share prices, so dollar changes do not measure active buying by themselves.
Peer ownership data gives the holder figures a reference point. Related ownership pages include AAPL, AMD, NVDA. Return to MSFT stock research for financial statements, earnings, and company risks.

Holder type breakdown
Holder types are a deterministic classification of SnowballHare's small tracked-manager universe, not an SEC legal category. The breakdown helps distinguish concentrated investment firms from diversified institutions and family-office style portfolios.
Rolling filing history
