Funds that sold out of NKTR in Q2 2026 (43)
Held NKTR at the end of Q1 2026 and filed a Q2 2026 13F without it. Not in the list above, because they no longer hold it. Largest prior position first.
Source: Form 13F-HR filings on SEC EDGAR, Q2 2026. Values are as reported by each manager at quarter end. “% of portfolio” is the position’s share of the manager’s total reported 13F value for the same quarter. “New” means the manager filed a 13F for Q1 2026 without this position; a dash means no comparison is available. Where a manager’s own filing is internally inconsistent its value is withheld and it is listed last. 13F data shows reported holdings, not recommendations.
