High-profile investors Jeff Smith and Alex Sacerdote hit home runs after Cisco 's buyout of cybersecurity software company Splunk sent shares surging. The move marked a big win for the two hedge fund investors with big stakes in Splunk. Splunk was Smith's Starboard Value's third-biggest holding at the end of June, with a bet worth more than $430 million. The stock, Whale Rock's fifth-biggest stock bet as of the end of June, has soared more than 66% this year. Sacerdote also had a big bet on another cybersecurity company like Splunk, Fortinet .

☆ Starboard Value’s Jeffrey Smith, who's bullish on A.I., reveals his top picks in latest 13F
  + stars: | 2023-08-14 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Starboard Value's Jeffrey Smith has called artificial intelligence "an enormous opportunity," and there are hints of his enthusiasm in his latest, quarterly 13F filing to SEC. The activist investor drastically increased his stake in Wix.com , making it his ninth-biggest holding at the end of June. The hedge fund manager said there's more room for Salesforce to grow and the stock can rally another 30% on the back of the AI boom. Nine years later he spun out his New York-based hedge fund and became the CEO. The hedge fund manager also added a relatively small stake in British life science company Abcam PLC last quarter.
