What fund managers bought in May 2026

Holdings: August 2026 · Returns updated 13 Sep 2026

How we calculate this

Month-end holdings disclosures for active-equity funds. We count share-quantity adds and cuts, not portfolio weight. Cash, TREPS, ETFs, fund units and derivatives are dropped. Funds with no prior-month book (a first disclosure) are excluded from month-on-month counts so the whole book is not treated as "bought." 2 funds were excluded this month.
