The strong buying from a sovereign wealth fund and a mega-passive manager suggests long-term conviction in Snowflake's platform value, potentially ahead of a broader sector rebound in cloud/data infrastructure. Traders should monitor for follow-on buying and any upcoming earnings or product catalysts.
Executive Summary
Three major institutions — Wells Fargo, Norges Bank, and Two Sigma — significantly increased or initiated positions in Snowflake (SNOW) during 2025-Q4, collectively adding $1.30B in net new exposure. This buying was partially offset by a full exit from RenTech, which sold its entire $130.7M stake. The cluster suggests growing institutional confidence in SNOW despite mixed signals from quant funds.
