4,819 institutional investors reported holding Broadcom Inc stock in Q2 2026, up 4.1% from 4,629 in Q1 2026. New position openings outpaced closures by nearly two to one — 280 funds started a position versus 146 that closed one out.

Holder count trend

Broadcom's institutional holder base has grown every quarter for the past five, with the fastest pace — 9.8% — in Q4 2025, before cooling to 0.5% in Q1 2026 and then reaccelerating to 4.1% in Q2 2026.

New vs. closed positions

Among managers that filed both Q1 and Q2 2026, 280 opened a brand-new AVGO position while only 146 closed one out — a net gain of 134 in new-versus-closed activity. That imbalance lines up with the broader holder-count growth this quarter and marks AVGO's new-position activity as notably more one-sided than the churn seen in some other large-cap names.

Largest new positions

Ranked by how large a share of each fund's own portfolio the new AVGO stake represents, not dollar size:

Fund% of fund's portfolio
First Trust Bank, Ltd.10.60%
BlueSpruce Investments, LP7.69%
Point Break Capital Management, LLC6.84%
BSN Capital Partners Ltd6.25%
Spear Holdings RSC Ltd5.07%
Tensor Edge Capital, LLC5.01%

BlueSpruce Investments also shows up as a top new buyer of META this quarter (per 13Foresight's who-owns data on that stock), suggesting at least one fund is building fresh conviction across more than one large-cap tech name — worth checking on fund overlap.

Full exits

The largest full exits, ranked by how big the position had been in each fund's Q1 2026 portfolio:

Fund% of fund's portfolio in Q1 2026
CSU Producer Resources, Inc.16.85%
Hillman Co10.54%
Fourier Capital Management Ltd9.52%
Grand Alliance Asset Management Ltd8.99%
SeaTown Holdings Pte. Ltd.8.28%
Kinetic Partners Management, LP6.25%

Highest-conviction holders

These funds carry the largest share of their own reported portfolio in AVGO. Several are small vehicles where a single stock filing can dominate the book — this reflects concentration, not an endorsement:

Fund% of fund's portfolio
Ask Capital Management, LLC88.81%
Milestone Resources Group Ltd27.87%
Haven Capital Group, Inc.21.62%
M & L Capital Management Ltd17.96%
Crescent Park Management, L.P.17.15%
Integrated Financial Solutions, Inc.15.74%
Cincinnati Specialty Underwriters Insurance CO14.65%
Investment Insight Wealth Management, LLC14.58%

Ask Capital Management's reported 88.81% weighting is the single highest conviction figure in either the AVGO or META datasets this quarter — a reminder that for a fund this concentrated, one 13F line item can be nearly the entire portfolio.

What to watch at the Q3 2026 deadline

Q3 2026 13F filings are due by 2026-11-16. Worth tracking: whether the 280-vs-146 new-versus-closed gap holds up, whether holder-count growth stays above 4% for a second straight quarter, and whether any of the six full exits above reappear as new positions elsewhere. Track AVGO alongside the rest of the semiconductor group on the sector heatmap, check how crowded the position is, or see which funds overlap on it. The fund rankings page and early filer tracker are useful once Q3 filings begin arriving.
