Logo of Public Investment Fund (PIF)


The Public Investment Fund (PIF) cut its ownership in US equities from $35.2 billion in Q4 2023 to $20.6 billion in Q1 2024, according to a US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing.

 

The Kingdom’s sovereign wealth fund lowered its holdings in 11 companies, Air Products and Chemicals, PayPal, Meta Platform, Adobe Inc., Starbucks, Microsoft, Alphabet, Salesforce Inc., Amazon, Advanced Micro Devices, and Booking Holding.

 

The fund exited its investment in several companies and purchased options contracts in others.

 

It invested in three new companies during the first quarter of this year, namely Nu Holdings, ARM and NVIDIA.

 

The following table illustrates the fund’s holding of US equities at the end of Q1 2024:
