Tidemark LLC Adjusts Investment Portfolio, Cuts S&P 100 ETF While Boosting Gold and Bonds
Anonymous
Tidemark LLC reduced its stake in the iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) by 32.9% during the fourth quarter, cutting holdings to 26,491 shares worth about $9.1 million and making it a 14th-largest position at roughly 2.6% of the portfolio. The firm simultaneously increased its gold exposure, boosting the SPDR Gold MiniShares Trust (GLDM) by 26.1% to 120,980 shares worth about $10.3 million, where it became its 10th-largest holding; the ETF’s moves were framed alongside ongoing central bank demand for gold as reserves. Tidemark also added to fixed-income ETFs, raising Fidelity Total Bond ETF (FBND) by 11.7% to 379,078 shares worth about $17.5 million—its second-largest position near 5.0% of the portfolio. It further increased the iShares Flexible Income Active ETF (BINC) by 9.5% to 187,508 shares worth about $9.9 million, or about 2.8% of the portfolio. Across these funds, other institutional investors were also actively adjusting positions, suggesting broad-based rebalancing rather than changes driven by Tidemark alone.
