MCHI holdings

MCHI reports 581 holdings and behaves like 28.7 equally weighted ones, computed from its SEC Form N-PORT filing for 2026-05-31. The fact sheet publishes the first number; this page computes the second, and traces it across 27 quarters of filings.

Measured concentration

as of 2026-05-31

Read this figure with the following in mind

2.5% of net assets is securities-lending cash collateral, excluded from the figure; counted as filed the fund would read 28.4

The figure below is what the filing says, published unchanged. What it may not do is sit beside a plain long-only fund and be read as the same quantity. How comparability is decided.

As filed, collateral included

2.52% collateral

MCHI's filing lists 582 positions including 2.52% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 28.4 effective holdings with a top ten of 42.16%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 28.7 with a top ten of 41.43%. The collateral is matched by a liability and is not a holding the fund chose; since 2026-09-18 every figure on this site sets it aside (methodology). Both numbers are in the data.

Who borrows MCHI's shares

2026-05-31

The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-05-31, $158m was out to 11 borrowers, 2.48% of net assets. The largest, MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC, held 44.8% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $71m 44.8%
BofA Securities, Inc. $43m 27.6%
GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. $12m 7.8%
UBS AG $11m 7.0%
JP MORGAN SECURITIES LLC $8m 5.0%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 2.52% of net assets, 101.5% of the amount lent. That is a floor on the collateral, not the whole of it — collateral the fund does not hold as a position is not in this filing, so a figure under 100% is not evidence of under-collateralisation. How that figure behaves across all funds. Every quarter MCHI has filed, with each borrower: MCHI.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

560 positions became 580: 40 added (1.9% of the fund at the later date), 20 dropped (0.6% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 8.7%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of MCHI compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

Derivative exposure and counterparties

as of 2026-05-31

A position count cannot describe a fund that uses derivatives, because a swap is filed at its unrealised gain, not its exposure. These are the notionals the fund itself reported, against net assets of $6.35B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
