What it bought and sold
we took advantage of that opportunity to exit our position.
We trimmed our large position in CRH earlier in the year but still view it as a core position within the sector.
We exited Hologic, Inc. (HOLX) following the announced transaction to be taken private by Blackstone and TPG.
we established a new position in Mondelez International (MDLZ), one of the global snacking leaders, after the company witnessed over a 700 basis points (bps) decline in its gross margin
We eliminated our position in Equitable Holdings (EQH) near the end of the quarter due to a capital allocation decision that violated our thesis.
We exited the position shortly after receiving it.
Early in the quarter we initiated a position in Honeywell International (HON), which is nearing the end of a multi-year simplification process.
we used the weakness to add to our position.
