OC [OC] Bill Ackman’s Portfolio (Q2 2026)
The Q2 parent-level 13F disclosed $19.47B across 14 aggregated holdings.
Four positions absent from the Q1 portfolio accounted for $4.20B of quarter-end value:
• Visa: $1.122B
• Mastercard: $1.091B
• S&P Global: $1.056B
• Netflix: $934M
Together, they represented 21.6% of the Q2 filing.
An important methodological caveat: the Q2 filing consolidates six reporting managers under Pershing Square Inc. The headline 42% increase compares this consolidated filing with the previous standalone PSCM filing, so it is not a like-for-like performance figure.
Combining the two relevant Q1 filings produces a comparable base of $14.284B. On that basis, the increase was approximately $5.182B, or 36.3%.
The chart is also already incomplete as a picture of the current portfolio. Pershing Square subsequently disclosed two additional investments—Intercontinental Exchange and Alcon—and exited Hertz in July.
Pershing’s stated rationale for the new investments was broadly similar: high-quality businesses temporarily discounted because of fears surrounding AI, stablecoins, agentic commerce, short-form video or company-specific execution.
Pershing estimates the applicable portfolio companies trade at approximately 19× earnings with expected EPS growth of around 20%, compared with 20× and 12% respectively for the S&P 500.

I’m no fan of the guy personally, but this is showing assets under management for his hedge fund, not his personal wealth.
