Baker Bros. remains one of Madrigal\u2019s larger shareholders with an 8.4% stake. <\/p>\n<h2>Increases in Holdings<\/h2>\n<p>\n        Bioventus<br \/>\n       (BVS)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Juniper Investment<\/strong> raised its position in the maker of medical devices to 6,656,987 shares, excluding those held by Juniper Investment co-founder John Bartholdson.
