Also, to reply to one of the comments below, the ford foundation has been disconnected from ford motor co for at least half a century
Yes, publicly available in the annual reports. Largest institutional are vanguard (11.7%), blackrock (8.1%), state street (4.6%). All of these represent other people’s money though through index funds, mutual funds and similar vehicles. And frankly immaterial since the ford family has disproportionate voting power irrespective of their shareholding.
Vanguard and Blackrock are the biggest holders.
I was told last week by some opinionated type its all scam.
The Ford Foundation is were the money is at and zero tax to boot.
I don’t know how Ford gets away with it, but only the class-B stock can control the company, and Henry’s descendants own that.
I’ve never figured out what value the class-A common stock has, other than the dividend.
@b0+1jv9963pb thank you for educating me on this without fluff. Appreciate it
Since Ford is virtually controlled by the Ford family via their Class B shares, you won’t find an investor that buys a large amount, rather everyone has a bit of stock in their portfolio since it is an age old dividend paying stock.
Stocks with a short list of investors who have low double/high single percentage ownership, and thus can be influential, will only happen if that share ownership comes with voting rights, Or, if the stock is growing a lot, some people won’t care about who is CEO if they are getting double digit growth for a few years
