Glenview Capital Management, led by billionaire Larry Robbins, took new stakes in Dick's Sporting Goods, Thermo Fisher, and Surgery Partners in Q2, according to its 13F filing. The hedge fund also exited its position in Disney. Robbins' fund increased its holdings in several other major companies, including Domino's Pizza, General Motors, and TJX Companies.
In the second quarter of 2025, Glenview Capital Management, led by billionaire Larry Robbins, disclosed significant changes in its investment portfolio. According to its latest 13F filing, the hedge fund took new stakes in Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS), Thermo Fisher (TMO), and Surgery Partners (SRGY), while exiting its position in Disney (DIS) [1].
The fund increased its stake in Dick's Sporting Goods by 1.05 million shares, indicating confidence in the company's growth prospects. This move comes as the sporting goods retailer continues to expand its margin and achieve synergies through its acquisition of Foot Locker. Similarly, Thermo Fisher and Surgery Partners were added to the portfolio, suggesting Glenview's belief in their potential for growth [1].
In contrast, Glenview reduced its stake in Disney by 3.75 million shares, signaling a shift in the fund's investment strategy. The move follows a broader trend in the entertainment sector, with companies like Disney facing headwinds due to changing consumer preferences and increased competition [1].
Glenview's Q2 moves underscore its commitment to actively managing its portfolio to maximize returns. By taking new stakes in companies with strong growth prospects and exiting positions in those with less favorable outlooks, the fund demonstrates its ability to adapt to changing market conditions [1].
As the second-quarter earnings season winds down, investors will be closely watching the performance of companies like NVIDIA (NVDA), which is scheduled to report on August 27. The earnings season has been marked by strong performance, with 81% of S&P 500 companies reporting earnings above consensus estimates [1].
In addition to earnings reports, investors will be keeping an eye on key economic indicators, such as retail sales and consumer inflation (CPI), which could provide insights into the health of the US economy [2].
