Across its top 20 institutional holders, MCO's holder base skews toward low-concentration, low-turnover investors on average (avg. concentration score 15/100, avg. turnover score 28/100).
MCO ranks #270 out of 37501 tracked stocks by institutional interest — one of the most closely watched names in our coverage.
MCO is a disclosed holding of Warren Buffett (Berkshire Hathaway Inc), one of the tracked superinvestors on AlphaSMO — it makes up 3.7% of that fund's own 13F portfolio.
MCO is a top-conviction position for Valley Forge Capital Management, LP — at 19.1% of their entire disclosed 13F portfolio, it's one of their largest single bets, not just a passing allocation.
The largest dollar stake in MCO belongs to Berkshire Hathaway Inc, but the position matters far more to Valley Forge Capital Management, LP, who has 19.1% 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.
Cliff Asness has added to its MCO position for two straight quarters, increasing it by $430.3M to reach $471.0M today.
BlackRock has trimmed its MCO position for two straight quarters, cutting it by $1.5B while still holding $5.6B.
MCO is down 2% today, but institutions show net buying of $27.9B this quarter — a divergence between today's price move and the underlying institutional flow.
MCO posted net income of $2.8B over the trailing twelve months, and currently trades at a P/E of 32.5.

Mixed signals: flat institutional flows, light insider selling
Signal Basis
Institutional net value change was just -$51.5M against a $72.4B aggregate position (roughly -0.07%), with buyers (647) narrowly outnumbering sellers (634) and 139 new positions versus 113 exits — essentially balanced. Insiders show zero buys versus five sales totaling ~$1.45M over 90 days (CEO Robert Fauber accounted for both August 3 trades), a modest figure with a 0.0 confidence score that appears too small to be decisive.
Confirmation
Another quarterly 13F showing near-zero net flow, paired with insiders continuing to sell without any offsetting purchases, would confirm the current wait-and-see stance.
Invalidation Risk
A decisive one-sided turn — high-conviction holders such as TCI (12.3% weight) or Berkshire materially reducing, or a fresh cluster of insider buying or selling emerging — would invalidate the neutral read.
AI-generated from institutional holders' SEC EDGAR disclosures and limited to historical data. Should not be relied upon as the sole basis for any investment decision.
See the institutional 13F filings behind this signalMCO 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.
