đCalpersâ 13F Moves: First Added BE, Bigger Bets on NVDA & ORCLâ Whatâs the Signal?
As the largest public pension system in the United States, Calpers is on the move again. In its latest 13F filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the fund made several notable adjustments to its portfolio. Overall, the $500B âking of long-term capitalâ is leaning further into AI and clean energy.
Calpers: Scale & Influence
Calpers currently:
Serves more than 2 million members
Manages over $500 billion in assets
Held $592.37 billion in equity positions as of November 25
It remains one of the most influential long-term institutional investors in global markets.
Here are the key highlights from the filingđ
1. New Position in Clean Energy Star â $Bloom Energy Corp(BE)$
Initiated a position of 361,883 shares in Bloom Energy (BE.US)
Worth ~$30.6 million at purchase
Now valued at ~$341 million based on Tuesdayâs close
BE shares are up 326% YTD
Bloom Energyâs fuel-cell systems allow customers to bypass the traditional power grid. Even more importantly, the company entered a tech partnership with Oracle earlier this year, boosting its visibility.
2. New Position in Drone & Autonomous Systems Maker $AeroVironment(AVAV)$
Purchased 50,332 shares of AVAV (~$15.8 million at the time)
Currently valued at just over $14 million
The stock is up nearly 80% YTD
AeroVironment is a long-established player in unmanned aircraft and autonomous defense systemsâa key name in the U.S. defense technology space.
3. Continued AI Accumulation: $Oracle(ORCL)$ + Big Tech
Hereâs the part AI investors care most about:
Calpers increased its Oracle (ORCL.US) holdings by 250,000+ shares, bringing its total to 3,021,454 shares. Despite ongoing debate over AI infrastructure spending, Calpersâ stance is clear: it remains confident.
The fund also increased positions in:
$Alphabet(GOOG)$ $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ â both Class A & Class C shares
4. Confidence in $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Still Maxed Out
The most notable move is Calpersâ continued bet on NVIDIA:
Raised its holdings from 64,728,856 to 66,062,378 shares
An increase of roughly 1.33 million shares
With NVIDIA now the worldâs most valuable company and the core engine of the AI revolution, Calpersâ message is unmistakable: stay overweight.
5. Structural Adjustments
Trimmed $Microsoft(MSFT)$ from 21.8M â 19.39M shares
Fully exited $Acadia Healthcare(ACHC)$ , selling all 134,205 shares (then worth just over $3M). The stock has since fallen 24%
These moves suggest portfolio optimization â shifting capital toward areas with the strongest growth conviction.
đŹ Community Discussion â Whatâs Your Take?
Here are a few prompts to spark your thoughts đ
Does Calpersâ increased exposure to NVIDIA, Oracle, and other AI names indicate an early bet on the next AI upcycle?
Does trimming Microsoft signal weakening confidence in its AI competitiveness, or is it simply portfolio balancing?
Bloom Energyâs stock has surged over 300% this year â do you think it still has room to run, or is the rally largely priced in?
