Dan Loeb Purges Portfolio, Cuts Over Two Thirds Of Equity Holdings, Adds 25 New Positions
In Q2 Dan Loeb went to town to his holdings as of March 31. Of his roughly 38 different positions, Loeb cut 24 names to zero among which Cisco, Marvell Technology, Sara Lee, Google, Wells Fargo (with the Octogenarian of Omaha likely buying every share), El Paso, Abercrobmie, Goldman and many others. Of course, he kept his stake in Yahoo and added to Apple, while cutting his Delphi stake from 13.34 million shares to 11.5 million. He used the proceeds from these sales to add to new positions (latest 13F here) in new names such aws AIG, Aetna, Chesapeake, Cigna, Coca Cola, Enphase, Humana, News Corp, and Unitedhealth Group. Also, Loeb went quite optically against Bill Ackman and bought a $6.5 million share equivalent put in JCPenney. He is significantly in the money in this. Altogether, his disclosed equity stake was at $3.3 billion as of June 30, down from $4.1 billion at March 31. Dry powder? Or more likely getting more into bonds (which he doesn't have to disclose on any filing).
New positions are highlighted in green below.

And nobody buys miners. Just us.
What does Loeb see in Yahoo?
I don't know what he sees but yahoo has been mismanaged for years. second search engine to google it has half the traffic but less than a tenth the market cap. they were and are a prime contender to be bought out by anyone competing with goog and they have a huge database and other assets.
Tyler, how about the quarterly on Leopold's portfolio next ?
I have no idea, but I've long wondered what anyone sees in Yahoo. It's a dead company that will eventually find itself in the dustbin of internet history. The only value I see are its stakes in other companies, like Alibaba. But hey, at least he doesn't own Bank of America.

at least not thoose who have good due diligence skills.
Refuse to acknowledge (and don't want to encourage) the real money creators?
Not me!
Why would anyone buy something that will someday be nationalized?
You gonna get Chavezed!
robo buys miners. .
I buy miners, I have a taste for the pain.
Bill "the Cat" ACKman vs the Frontal Loeb. Should be fun!
roulette isn't a science. Even if the wheel isn't broken, you lose.
That's a boatload of Yahoo. He better hope for a buyout. Maybe he is looking at the Farcebook integration.
im sure sugar britches has some motivation to sell it off. isnt it like 100 million of them? she better yhoo in my world has become a total embarrassment
FB integration w YHOO might be a sure thing if you believe that FB is an essential security tool going forward.
EDIT: would make YHOO a sure thing (not FB)
The Octo from Oma just sold off his stuff as well. Oooooooh, this could mean something!
What's this? Mr. Buy-and-hold is losing his nerve?
He sold off in late june and missed the last move up. Buffet has sucked at trading for years.
I think you mispelled ABERCROMBIE. I think he realizes that Europe will open up some cash opportunities in the near future.
Dan Loeb's trades are retarded.
Yahoo! Marissa is not that pretty. Not for me.
How shitty can you be at picking stocks to begin with if you have to cut most of your portfolio? Who gives these fuckers money?? Let me guess, Calpers?
What, no Altria or Philip Morris??
Funny how the Oracle of Omaha sold a bunch of stock.....I always thought he was a big long term holder......maybe he is buying more derivitives....he loves those....its more like he needs to finance Obama´s campaign.....or maybe Becky Quick´s baby has his DNA in it...
.....or maybe Becky Quick´s baby has his DNA in it...
Eewwww. LOL!
Taking a chance on Chesapeake. Somehow that value doesn't look right at $.79/share. Maybe he's already written them down?
Well atleast I know who I lost money shorting COG. Bastard!
