What this transaction means for investors
SEC filings do not typically reveal why a fund sold a specific stock. However, in the case of Penn Davis McFarland, they likely unloaded most of their shares because of the massive decline in the stock price over the last year.

Key Data Points
The stock offers a 5.3% dividend yield and sells at a P/E ratio of around 7.5. Nonetheless, such attributes may not justify staying in a stock when it seems to be in freefall.
While the earnings multiple may indicate the stock is oversold, the company has steadily lost subscribers. Moreover, its satellite radio monopoly in the U.S. is relatively meaningless when users can stream media from their smartphones.
Additionally, it was never a major position in the fund. Today, it is around 0.3% of Penn Davis McFarland’s holdings, and even before the sale, it made up just 1.5% of the fund. Fortunately, that blunts the impact of the decline in SiriusXM stock, allowing the overall fund to make gains during the quarter despite SiriusXM’s performance.
