The late‑July 2026 flurry of 13F filings showed institutional investors both expanding and reallocating US equity positions. On July 29, Ashton Thomas Securities lifted its Walmart stake by 142 percent and First Trust Advisors raised holdings in Weyerhaeuser and Willdan Group, while RBF Capital took a sizable block in WillScot Holdings. First Trust added a 21 percent gain in Willdan the next day, and other funds moved into small‑cap construction‑service and flexible‑workspace firms. Also on July 29, Kensington Investment Counsel trimmed its Williams‑Sonoma position by about 41 percent, selling 17,633 shares and reducing the holding to roughly $4.6 million. In the same filings, RBF Capital boosted its Janus International Group stake by roughly 34 percent, purchasing 352,430 shares worth about $7.2 million, a move echoed by RBC, AQR, UBS Asset Management and Jane Street. The trend continued into early August. On August 3, Militia Capital Management acquired 38,389 shares of Williams Companies Inc. for about $2.8 million, adding to the pipeline‑sector interest from investors such as Norges Bank and Brookfield. Meanwhile, Bank of New York Mellon cut its Walker & Dunlop stake by 162,693 shares, lowering its holding to about 0.5 % percent of the mortgage‑finance firm. Other managers, including Deprince Race & Zollo, Balyasny Asset Management and Two Sigma, also adjusted positions. ~~Together, these~~ By late August, filings ~~illustrate an ongoing, sector‑spanning reshuffling~~ indicated further sector-specific shifts.
