Western Asset Ownership

The market capitalization of Western Asset Premier is $137.28 Million. Over half of Western Asset's outstanding shares are owned by institutional investors. These institutional investors are typically referred to as corporate investors that purchase positions in a given instrument to benefit from reduced trade commissions. Note, that even with negative profits, if the true value of the etf is larger than the current market value, you may still be able to generate positive returns on investment in this company. Some institutional investors establish a significant position in etfs such as Western Asset in order to find ways to drive up its value. Retail investors, on the other hand, need to know that institutional holders can own millions of shares of Western Asset, and when they decide to sell, the etf will often sell-off, which may instantly impact shareholders' value. So, traders who get in early or near the beginning of the institutional investor's buying cycle could potentially generate profits.
