The recent gold rally is counterintuitive, as high interest rates typically make bullion less attractive. But billionaire investor David Einhorn has a theory that he shared in his latest investor letter. Einhorn suggests that gold's rally is potentially due to countries in the East buying gold from Western nations. To explain the strong run for gold, billionaire investor David Einhorn offered a potential theory in his latest letter to investors published this week. Others, like billionaire investor Ray Dalio, say gold can hedge risks stemming from high government debt levels.

Greenlight Capital's David Einhorn continued to pick up new stocks in the first quarter, including Penn Entertainment , as the longtime value investor struggles to find opportunities in the volatile market. He established the stake at an average cost of $22.69 per share, but the stock has fallen to $17.44 as of Wednesday. Still, Einhorn said sports betting, if executed right, could take the shares much higher. "Were the market to credit PENN with merely 15% of DraftKings' value, that segment alone would be worth $20 per share." Q4 buyer's strike Einhorn had stopped building new stock positions at one point in the fourth quarter, saying he was on a "buyer's strike" due to worries about intensifying geopolitical risks.

The central bank's current chief, Jerome Powell, is yet to defeat his mythical beast — and Wall Street is getting worried. Powell warned on Wednesday that the Fed's fight against inflation isn't over after annualized price growth accelerated to 3.2% in February. AdvertisementRaising the alarmBank of America analysts have suggested that stubborn inflation could mean the Fed doesn't start cutting rates until March next year. It's no wonder, then, that investors are waiting impatiently for the Fed to cut rates. Fundstrat's famously bullish boss, Tom Lee, proclaimed this week that it's dropping "like a rock" and the first rate cut is still likely to be in June.

The smart money gathered in Manhattan Wednesday didn't spend their time pitching artificial intelligence venture bets or bitcoin-linked trading products. At this year's Sohn conference in New York, the biggest names in hedge funds — such as David Einhorn, Elliott's Jesse Cohn, and Kirkoswald's Greg Coffey — preached fundamentals and restraint. Solvay, Einhorn said, has "a relatively high and stable margin, a high return on capital, and a good return of capital." Even hedge funds that are constantly stirring the pot, such as Paul Singer's Elliott Management and Bridgewater, were even-keeled. "You've got a durable business with real differentiation, you've got a strong management team executing," he said.

"I think inflation is reaccelerating. I think there's a lot of indication of that," the famed investor said during the Sohn Investment Conference in New York. As a defense play against a potential market downturn, Einhorn also said he is loading up on his gold position . We own physical bars as well, so gold is a very large position for us," Einhorn said. Value investing opportunities Despite his concerns, Einhorn said opportunities are emerging in value stocks, which he thinks are misunderstood nowadays.

Greenlight's David Einhorn said Wednesday at the Sohn Investment Conference in New York he has bought shares of European chemicals company Solvay . "Solvay is an essential chemical company that holds the number one position across all of its markets" Einhorn said. "While all of these are thought of as commodity businesses, they are higher margin and much more stable than most commodity chemical businesses." "All told, Solvay is a commodity chemical company with relatively high and stable margin, a higher return on capital." "At 3.7 times targeted 2028 earnings per share with almost a double-digit dividend yield, it seems too cheap," Einhorn added.

Schaeffler’s token bump sets up bigger battle

REUTERS/Staff Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Nov 27 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Schaeffler’s (SHA_p.DE) token bump for Vitesco Technologies (VTSCn.DE) may not ensure a smooth ride. The 3.4 billion euro German industrial group raised its tender price for shares in auto parts group Vitesco by 3% to 94 euros. On that basis the 94 euros tender price is only a 7% premium above fair value. Assuming enough shareholders now tender, the final merger price for any remaining shares will be set by a third-party valuer. Yet Vitesco’s board, backed by three banks including JPMorgan (JPM.N) and Lazard (LAZ.N), have now published fairness opinions saying the company is worth more than 94 euros.

He viewed the move as bullish for stocks and likely to fuel inflation at the time.

Greenlight Capital's David Einhorn said he's getting concerned about the stock market after a strong rally and has added sizable downside protection to his portfolio. Between January and June, the S & P 500 popped 15.9% for its best first half since 2019. Einhorn, 54, believes inflation remains a big risk even though data has suggested easing price pressures. Recent inflation readings have shown a noted deceleration and the tailwind from higher rents is likely to dissipate, causing core inflation to fall further," Einhorn said. "Even so, we believe inflation is stickier and more entrenched than the market is currently appraising."
