Analysis of Hedge Fund Holdings in US Bancorp for Q1 2025
Recent analysis of 13F filings for the quarter ending March 31, 2025, reveals that US Bancorp (Symbol: USB) was held by 11 hedge funds. When multiple hedge fund managers show similar interests, it often suggests a deeper investigation is warranted.
It’s essential to note that 13F filings provide only a partial picture. Funds are required to disclose their long positions but not their short positions. For instance, a fund may hold short positions against a stock while also maintaining some long exposure. Consequently, this long component appearing in a 13F filing might create an impression of bullishness, which could be misleading since the bearish aspects are not reported.
With this caveat in mind, examining groups of 13F filings can yield insightful information, especially when contrasting holding periods. Below, we look at the shifts in USB positions among these recent filers.
In terms of share ownership, 5 of the reviewed funds increased their USB positions between December 31, 2024, and March 31, 2025, while 4 funds reduced theirs.
