What it reported after the quarter end (Q2 2026)
The 13F shows the portfolio as of Jun 30, 2026. Since then Gates Foundation Trust has filed these own trades with the SEC (Form 4, when it owns more than 10% of a company or holds a role in it) and stakes above 5% (13D and 13G). It is not everything it did: only what it must report before the next 13F.

How we classify it
Not counted as a concentrated manager: it is a foundation or endowment; what it reports is usually donated stock or the direct slice of a portfolio run by others. Its portfolio is shown all the same, but it is left out of manager counts, the consensus and the ranking. How this is decided
Managers of a similar size
A 13F portfolio value between a third and three times this one, whatever the type of filer. It is not a comparison of what they hold.
