Bill Ackman’s latest portfolio transactions and
his biggest positions originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Some of you might
know Bill Ackman because of the phone battle against Carl Icahn on CNBC. He is
an activist with around USD 10 billion in assets under management. In his
management company “Pershing Square Capital” he has only 10 stock holdings.
As an activist, Ackman tries to increase
pressure on the management of a company in order to implement own visions of
the company’s future. Nearly half of his positions have voting rights over 10
percent.
His main investment focus is on defensive stocks
from the consumer and industrial sector. Around 70 percent of his exposure is
related to these two sectors.
Below is a small list of Bill Ackman’s latest
Portfolio transactions. He is a lazy guy. Last quarter, he bought only one
stock and he needed more than a year to complete his latest 20 transactions.
From his 20 latest transactions are 12 unique
positions of which 10 pay dividends. Dividend payments are not in focus of Ackman’s
investment strategy. Only one company yields above the 3 percent mark.
