Across its top 20 institutional holders, IQV's holder base skews toward low-concentration, low-turnover investors on average (avg. concentration score 5/100, avg. turnover score 38/100).
IQV ranks #413 out of 37501 tracked stocks by institutional interest — one of the most closely watched names in our coverage.
IQV is a disclosed holding of Bill Nygren (Harris Associates L.P.), one of the tracked superinvestors on AlphaSMO — it makes up 3.1% of that fund's own 13F portfolio.
IQV is a top-conviction position for Cadian Capital Management, LP — at 11.9% of their entire disclosed 13F portfolio, it's one of their largest single bets, not just a passing allocation.
The largest dollar stake in IQV belongs to BlackRock, Inc., but the position matters far more to Cadian Capital Management, LP, who has 11.9% of their own portfolio riding on it — a reminder that the biggest holder by size and the holder with the biggest bet aren't always the same fund.
JPMorgan has added to its IQV position for two straight quarters, increasing it by $330.2M to reach $1.2B today.
Fidelity has trimmed its IQV position for two straight quarters, cutting it by $549.7M while still holding $234.3M.
IQV is up 0.3% today, and institutions have been net buyers of $7.8B this quarter — today's price move and the underlying institutional flow are pointing the same direction.
IQV posted net income of $1.4B over the trailing twelve months, and currently trades at a P/E of 32.9.

Top 5 Institutional Movers
Institutional accumulation diverges from insider selling
Signal Basis
13F filings show a net value increase of approximately $7.78 billion, yet the buyer count of 535 nearly matches the 541 sellers, suggesting the institutional signal is broad but not decisive. Meanwhile, insiders executed 8 sells totaling roughly $29.19 million over 90 days with zero purchases, indicating sustained insider distribution.
Confirmation
A subsequent quarter of expanding institutional net inflows paired with any insider buy transactions would confirm a bullish thesis.
Invalidation Risk
Continued insider selling at increasing volumes, combined with institutional buyer counts falling further below seller counts, would invalidate the neutral stance toward bearish.
This game-theory analysis is AI-assisted and derived from institutional holders' SEC EDGAR filings, covering historical data only. For informational purposes, not investment advice — source filings linked below.
See the institutional 13F filings behind this signalIQV does not currently show a 13F-and-insider convergence signal — its insider confidence score is 0/100, below the threshold this product uses to flag combined buying pressure.
13F data as of 2026-06-30 quarterly filings. Note: many large institutions file close to the 45-day post-quarter deadline, so early-quarter flow figures can shift substantially as more filings arrive.
