In its second-quarter 2026 investor letter, Greenskeeper **** et Management highlighted Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) as a leading performance contributor. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG), the parent company of Google, offers various platforms and services, including online search and advertising, cloud solutions, and artificial intelligence. On August 03, 2026, Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) closed at $372.47 per share, reflecting a market capitalization of $4.56 trillion. Alphabet Inc.

Greenskeeper **** et Management stated the following regarding Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG), +23.2%, was our third-best performer in the quarter. After more than two years of market concern that AI chatbots would cannibalize Google's core search business, recent results are proving those fears unfounded. Boosted by AI Overviews and AI mode, Search revenue grew nearly 20% in the most recent quarter. This performance was driven primarily by higher paid-click volume, alongside a modest rise in revenue per click— demonstrating that AI integration is enhancing, rather than displacing, the platform's core value proposition. Alphabet's Cloud division is showing even stronger momentum: its backlog has nearly doubled, while operating margins expanded to 33%, highlighting both robust demand and expanding operating leverage. Meanwhile, management continues to invest heavily in compute infrastructure. With market-leading positions across search, cloud, digital advertising, and AI, we believe Alphabet remains exceptionally well-positioned to earn strong returns on its capex and compound intrinsic value over time."
Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) ranks 7th on our list of 40 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. According to our database, 201 hedge fund portfolios held Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) at the end of the first quarter, compared to 203 in the previous quarter. In 2025, Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) achieved its first-ever $400 billion annual revenue and in Q1 2026 its consolidated revenue reached $109.9 billion, up 22% or 19% in constant currency. While we acknowledge the potential of Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Greenskeeper **** et Management stated the following regarding ICON Public Limited Company (NASDAQ:ICLR) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"Our top performer in the second quarter was ICON Public Limited Company (NASDAQ:ICLR), which gained 57%. The surge followed the release of ICLR's delayed year-end and first-quarter results, which provided clarity on the accounting issues that had previously weighed heavily on the stock.
ICLR had been the Value Fund's largest detractor in the first quarter, after announcing in February that it would delay its year-end results and restate its 2023 and 2024 financial statements due to revenue overstatements. The stock plummeted as investors rushed to sell amid the uncertainty..." (Click here to read the full text)

"Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE:ELV) was another strong contributor during the quarter, gaining 32.1%. Profitability has begun to turn the corner following a challenging period marked by elevated medical cost inflation across its government sponsored insurance plans. While medical utilization remains elevated, cost trends have stabilized into a more predictable pattern, and government reimbursement updates were more favorable than expected. We anticipate 2026 will mark the bottom for operating margins, with disciplined repricing and better alignment between premiums and medical expenses driving an earnings recovery in 2027. Our investment thesis remains grounded in the strength of ELV's commercial health insurance franchise, which continues to perform well and provides a durable foundation for the company's long-term earnings power."
Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE:ELV) is not on our list of the 40 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 87 hedge fund portfolios held Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE:ELV) at the end of the first quarter which was 78 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the potential of Elevance Health, Inc.

The one-month return of Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) was 9.51%, and its shares gained 36.91% over the past 52 weeks. Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) has a market capitalization of $135.32 billion.
Greenskeeper **** et Management stated the following regarding Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) was our second-largest detractor during the quarter, declining 15.7%. The sell-off was primarily driven by execution challenges within its Aeronautics division, which delayed aircraft deliveries and required additional rework on certain fixed-price contracts. These issues weighed on near-term profitability and raised concerns about the company's ability to meet its production targets.
We view these operational headwinds as temporary. Global demand for defence capabilities remains exceptionally strong as governments replenish depleted inventories and navigate an increasingly complex geopolitical backdrop. Anchored by leading positions across critical defence programs, Lockheed Martin remains well-positioned to drive long-term cash generation as execution normalizes and order backlogs convert into deliveries."

Greenskeeper ****** et Management, an independent firm that specializes in disciplined value investing, recently released its Q1 2026 scorecard. A copy is available to download here. The Middle East conflict triggered a sharp stock sell-off in the market, resulting in the Greenskeeper Value Fund posting a -8.1% return in Q1. Despite this challenging quarter, the fund took the opportunity to reinforce its portfolio. Please review the Fund's top five holdings to gain insights into their key selections for 2026.
In its first-quarter 2026 investor letter, Greenskeeper ****** et Management highlighted The Hershey Company (NYSE:HSY).

Greenskeeper ****** et Management stated the following regarding The Hershey Company (NYSE:HSY) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:
"The Hershey Company (NYSE:HSY) performed well during the quarter, gaining +14.2% as cocoa costs finally retreated, reversing the extreme inflationary pressures of the past two years. As this lower-cost inventory works its way through the balance sheet, we expect input-cost pressures to ease significantly. Crucially, consumer demand has proven resilient; volumes remain above management's original expectations despite the price hikes taken to defend margins. This reinforces our original thesis: Hershey's brand equity is robust enough to withstand significant macro shocks without compromising its long-term competitive position. Furthermore, the company's expansion into salty snacks continues to diversify the earnings stream and support consistent profit growth."

Greenskeeper **** et Management stated the following regarding ICON Public Limited Company (NASDAQ:ICLR) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:
"ICON Public Limited Company (NASDAQ:ICLR) -39.3% was our primary detractor this quarter following the February announcement of an internal Audit Committee investigation into revenue recognition practices from 2023 through 2025. While the market's reaction was severe, we believe it was an overreaction. Management anticipates the revenue restatement will be less than 2% for each affected year. While disappointing, we believe this issue was an internal matter and will not have any material long-term impact on ICLR's ability to serve its customers. It is also unlikely to have a material impact on the company's $1 billion of free cash flow. We used the selloff as an opportunity to increase our position, and the stock has already begun to rebound. As the pharmaceutical environment continues to improve, we remain confident that the company will capture its fair share of clinical trial activity. With the stock trading at roughly 10x trailing earnings, we believe that the shares remain materially undervalued."

Greenskeeper ***** et Management stated the following regarding Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:BRK-B) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:
"A feature article in this weekend's Barron's captured the current market sentiment and the disconnect regarding our largest holding—Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:BRK-B). The stock has declined 7% year-to-date and underperformed the S&P 500 by 40% over the past year. This marks one of the worst periods of relative performance in its history. We view Berkshire as fundamentally undervalued. Management appears to share our conviction, having resumed share buybacks last month. With its $370 billion cash pile, we suspect that it will continue to retire shares. The lower the price, the more aggressively they will act and capture value for long-term shareholders
Fellow Canadian Greg Abel is now in charge. No successor to Buffett can ever hope to replicate his stock-picking genius. But we believe Greg brings a distinct set of strengths to the CEO role. Greg is hands-on, detail-oriented, and— crucially—willing to engage in the operational friction necessary to drive efficiency. Unlike the hands-off approach of the past, we believe Abel will hold subsidiary management teams to a higher standard of accountability, driving margin expansion across Berkshire's diverse operations…" (Click here to read the full text)

Greenskeeper **** et Management stated the following regarding Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:
"Our second-worst performer in the quarter was Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) -13.8%. Visa's fundamentals remain exceptional, with 2025 global payment volumes rising 8% and driving double-digit growth in both revenue and earnings. However, the stock has been pressured by macro concerns, specifically the risk of a global slowdown and rising oil prices stemming from the conflict in the Middle East. Higher fuel costs typically dampen cross-border travel—one of Visa's highest-margin revenue streams. Despite these near-term headwinds, Visa remains one of the highest-quality businesses we have ever encountered. We remain confident that its long-term earnings power will compound at attractive rates for many, many years."
