AI Analysis · Q1 2026

A 28.1% cut to Bunge was the sharpest move in an otherwise exit-free Q1 2026 for Aldebaran Capital, a concentrated $130.8 million, 43-position value shop anchored by Berkshire Hathaway (14.7% of assets), with real commodity and energy conviction running through Occidental Petroleum, Suncor Energy, Chevron, Freeport-McMoRan and Century Aluminum, plus a satellite of small-cap biotech names. Notably, the fund didn't fully exit a single position this quarter — every holding it had is still on the books. The largest genuine move was a 28.1% share cut in Bunge, the agricultural commodities trader, pulling out roughly $3.4 million — more than four times the size of any other reduction — even though Bunge's dollar value actually rose slightly on price strength. Suncor Energy shows a similar pattern: shares cut 10.3%, yet the position's value climbed $1.7 million. On the buying side, Microsoft shares were increased 12.2% even as the position's total value fell $1.2 million on a weaker stock price — Aldebaran added into the decline rather than chasing strength. The largest new commitment is a fresh $5.1 million stake in Glencore, the commodities trading giant, alongside new positions in LKQ Corp, Ziff Davis, and a handful of smaller additions including Exxon Mobil and Bank of Montreal.

No sales, but a decisive trim

Every position Aldebaran held last quarter is still held this quarter — the sold-positions list is empty. That makes the one large reduction stand out more: Bunge Limited, the agricultural commodities trader, was cut 28.1% in shares, a genuine $3.4 million outflow that dwarfs every other trim in the book. Yet Bunge's total dollar value actually rose slightly quarter over quarter, because the stock's price gain partly offset the share sale — Aldebaran was taking real profits even as the position looked larger on paper. Suncor Energy shows the identical pattern at smaller scale: a 10.3% share cut (-$782,000 in flow) alongside a $1.7 million rise in the position's reported value.
