Most Widely Held Stocks
GetMostHeldStocksGet the cross-sectional ranking of stocks by institutional 13F breadth for a given quarter. Returns the stocks ranked by number of 13F filers reporting them as a holding (default), by quarter-over-quarter change in filer count (warming names — 'filersDelta' — or cooling names — 'filersDeltaAsc'), or by total reported dollar value. Includes Δ filers vs the prior quarter, total value, Δ value, and the stock's share of the 13F universe. The output publishes the first complete 13F report quarter; earlier rankings are unavailable, and boundary-quarter deltas are withheld. Only currently-held stocks rank; fully-sold-out names live in GetMarketWide13FActivity's sold-out-positions bucket. While the newest quarter's filing window is open, funds that have not filed yet are carried at their prior-quarter positions (noted in the output). Use this to answer 'which stocks are most owned by institutions right now, and is breadth expanding or contracting?'
