    The investment firm formerly helmed by U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is unloading hundreds of millions of dollars in the Nvidia (NVDA) rival AMD (AMD).

    Data from the firm’s latest 13F filing shows that Cantor Fitzgerald sold $295 million in AMD shares last quarter, trimming its exposure by 75%.

    As of the end of the quarter, Cantor holds 465,672 shares in AMD valued at $99.728 million.

    During the last quarter of 2025, the investment firm also fully exited its position in Meta (META), dumping 24,892 shares previously worth $18.280 million.

    Cantor additionally exited its stake in Alphabet’s Class A stock (GOOGL), selling 39,799 shares previously valued at $9.675 million.

    And the firm dropped 100% of its exposure in the Chinese tech conglomerate Alibaba (BABA), dumping 24,140 BABA shares previously worth $4.314 million.

    While Cantor sold its GOOGL shares, it bought 147,863 shares in Alphabet’s Class C, boosting its exposure to 161,360 shares valued at $50.634 million.

    The company also increased its position in the AI cloud service provider IREN (IREN) by 2,442%. Cantor Fitzgerald bought an additional 3,333,423 IREN shares in Q4 to lift its stake to 3,469,904 shares worth $131.058 million.

    But the firm placed a $190 million put option on IREN as a hedge, giving Cantor the right, but not the obligation, to sell IREN on a specified date before the contract expires.

    Cantor also loaded up on Oracle (ORCL), buying 409,436 shares to boost its stake to 726,362 shares valued at $141.575 million.

    Similar to IREN, Cantor hedged its Oracle holdings, buying put options worth $97.455 million.

    And the investment firm snapped up 729,654 shares in the chipmaker Intel (INTC), increasing its exposure to 2,555,851 shares valued at $94.310 million.

    Just like IREN and ORCL, Cantor hedged its INTC stake after buying $73.800 million worth of put options.

    Lastly, Cantor accumulated 157,062 Amazon (AMZN) shares in Q4, boosting its stake to 326,025 shares valued at $75.253 million.
