The largest five stakes are Alphabet Inc. (GOOG), Apple Inc. (AAPL),Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), Oracle Corporation (ORCL), and 3M (MMM) and they add up to ~21% of the portfolio.

Note: Last January, Jeremey Grantham predicted the market to be in a melt-up (S&P 3400 to 3800 in short order). At the time, he thought emerging markets were a safe bet. As a secondary recommendation, EAFE equities were suggested. Consistent with that call, he increased the iShares MSCI Emerging Market ETF (EEM) allocation to a 3.11% portfolio stake thru last quarter. That quarter saw the position reduced by ~80% to a small 0.72% portfolio stake.
