Deep Tide TechFlow News, May 17, According to documents submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Gates Foundation Trust sold the remaining approximately 7.7 million Microsoft shares in the first quarter of 2026, valued at about $3.2 billion at current stock prices. By the end of the first quarter, the charity no longer held any Microsoft shares.
Market analysts believe this liquidation aligns with Bill Gates' recent philanthropic planning direction. In May 2025, Gates announced that he would gradually wind down the foundation's operations over the next 20 years and invest all assets into charitable purposes, aiming to permanently close the foundation by December 31, 2045, with charitable expenditures expected to exceed $200 billion during this period.
