Value vs. prior quarter

Knighthead Capital Management’s reported 13F holdings total $1.18B across 10 positions as of 30 June 2026. The ten largest make up 100.0% of it, and its value fell 22.5% from the prior quarter.

Form 13F lists long positions in exchange-traded securities over which the filer had investment discretion, valued at quarter end. It excludes cash, bonds held outside 13(f) securities, private funds, and assets the firm does not have discretion over, so the $1.18B reported here is not the firm's $18.99B in regulatory assets, and it does not represent any individual client's portfolio.

No. Form 13F covers only long positions in exchange-traded securities over which the manager has investment discretion, valued at quarter end. It excludes cash, most bonds, private funds, and any assets the firm does not have discretion over, so it is neither the firm's total assets nor any individual client's portfolio.

How often does Knighthead Capital Management file its 13F?

Every quarter. Managers file within 45 days of each quarter's end, so the figures are a snapshot that changes between filings. This page shows the quarter ended 30 June 2026.
