The firm also took fresh positions in GXO Logistics and Flowserve while slashing its Johnson & Johnson stake by more than half.
The moves signal a broad portfolio shift — out of a blue-chip pharma stalwart and into mortgage fintech, industrial logistics, and tax-free bonds. Okabena is not alone in eyeing Rocket Companies. Vanguard and Morgan Stanley each made massive moves into the stock this quarter tickerreport.com.
Vanguard and Morgan Stanley Pile Into Rocket Companies
Okabena's new $1.6 million Rocket Companies stake is small compared to what the big players did. Vanguard boosted its position by 280.3%, ending up with 87,256,540 shares worth about $1.689 billion watchlistnews.com. Morgan Stanley went even further, surging 461.2% to 27,009,279 shares valued at roughly $522.9 million.
Despite those giant buys, institutional investors and hedge funds still own just 4.59% of Rocket Companies tickerreport.com. That low number is striking. It suggests Wall Street is only beginning to treat RKT as a core holding rather than a niche mortgage lender. Vanguard and Morgan Stanley's moves could pull more institutions into the stock.
Okabena Cuts Johnson & Johnson Stake by More Than Half
Okabena slashed its JNJ position to about 5,100 shares, worth roughly $1.1 million — down more than 50% from its prior holding watchlistnews.com. The trim comes even as other large funds stay committed to the healthcare giant. Institutional investors collectively own 69.55% of Johnson & Johnson.
Norway's Norges Bank, which manages the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, took a brand-new JNJ position worth about $6.924 million in the fourth quarter tickerreport.com. JPMorgan raised its JNJ price target from $250 to $260, though it kept a "neutral" rating. The mixed signals show the market is divided on J&J's near-term path.
Municipal Bond ETF Grows as Okabena Seeks Tax-Free Income
Okabena added 7,713 shares to its iShares National Muni Bond ETF position, a 9.8% increase watchlistnews.com. The firm now holds 86,457 shares worth about $9.3 million. MUB is now Okabena's 18th-largest holding, making up about 1.8% of its total portfolio.
Municipal bond ETFs like MUB pay income that is exempt from federal taxes. That makes them a top choice for high-net-worth firms managing money for wealthy clients. About 90.19% of MUB is owned by hedge funds and institutional investors — a sign this is a crowded but trusted trade watchlistnews.com.
New Bets on GXO and Flowserve Split Analyst Opinion
Okabena bought roughly 13,000 shares of GXO Logistics for about $690,000 and around 21,000 shares of Flowserve for about $1.47 million tickerreport.com. Both are new positions. They reflect a bet on supply chain automation and industrial infrastructure heading into the second half of 2026.
Analyst views are split. On GXO, Wall Street Zen upgraded the stock to "buy" on May 31, while Goldman Sachs moved in the opposite direction, cutting it to "neutral" tickerreport.com. On Flowserve, Jefferies holds a "buy" rating with a $90 target, Goldman Sachs stands at "neutral" with an $83 target, and Wall Street Zen downgraded it to "hold" on April 25.
