In early Q1 2026, several U.S. institutional investors adjusted their equity positions. A July 28 report noted that Edgestream Partners increased its stake in Travel+Leisure, while Bank of Nova Scotia dramatically cut its holding in homebuilder Toll Brothers, selling most of its shares. A follow‑up on August 3 recorded further reductions: Shariaportfolio trimmed its Toll Brothers stake by about one‑third, and Sapient Capital cut its position in apparel retailer The TJX Companies by more than 40 %. Across both snapshots, the pattern shows a broader trend of institutional investors scaling back exposure to Toll Brothers and, to a lesser extent, other U.S. consumer firms.
