Published on Mar. 2, 2026

Royce & Associates LP, an investment management firm, has trimmed its position in Brunswick Corporation (NYSE:BC) by 22.2% during the third quarter, according to a recent disclosure with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The firm now owns 398,145 shares of the company's stock, down from 512,079 shares previously.

Why it matters

Brunswick is a major player in the recreational boating and marine engine industries, so changes in institutional ownership of its stock can signal shifts in investor sentiment around the company and the broader marine market.

The details

Royce & Associates sold 113,934 shares of Brunswick stock during the third quarter, reducing its overall stake in the company to about 0.61%. The investment firm cited general portfolio rebalancing as the reason for the reduced position. Brunswick's stock price has risen over 30% in the past year as the company has benefited from strong consumer demand for boats and engines.
