Definition
Property, land, or investments owned by a person or organization; possessions of value.
Etymology
From 'hold' (Old English 'haldan'), meaning to possess or maintain. 'Holding' as a noun referring to possessed land dates to medieval times when land was the primary form of wealth.
Kelly Says
The word 'holdings' reveals how feudal systems shaped English—a 'holding' was literally land you held from a lord, a concept so central to medieval life that it became our term for any valuable possessions.
