Cole is also part of the group that will buy Jordan's majority stake, the Hornets said.

Securities filings released this week signaled that many hedge funds also appear to be catching the AI bug. Betting on AI heavyweights Alphabet popped up as one of the most common AI plays among big investors in the first quarter. Microsoft bet billions on AI capabilities, funneling another multibillion-dollar investment in January into ChatGPT maker OpenAI. Beyond Alphabet and Microsoft Outside heavyweight giants Alphabet and Microsoft, many hedge funds beefed up other AI-related holdings in the first quarter. His Nvidia bet equaled roughly $1.4 billion at the end of March.
Andreas Halvorsen's Viking Global Investors took new positions in Lululemon Athletica and Sherwin-Williams in the first quarter, according to the hedge fund's latest 13F filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Fellow hedge fund manager Dan Sundheim of DQ Capital Partners dumped his entire holding in Sherwin-Williams in the first quarter. A 46% increase to Halvorsen's McKesson stake put the stock in the number two slot among his biggest holdings, at $1.14 billion. Of Halvorsen's top 10 holdings, all were increased stakes in the quarter besides Amazon, which was cut almost 40%. Correction: A previous version misstated Viking Global's actions in the first quarter as a result of an incorrect quarterly comparison.
Dan Sundheim's D1 Capital Partners bet on PNC Financial Services as turmoil unraveled across banks in the first quarter. The hedge fund, founded in 2018, opened a $43-million stake in the Pittsburgh-based regional bank in the first quarter, which saw the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in March, according to securities filings. D1 also made new bets on the healthcare sector, opening new positions in UnitedHealth and Danaher , and a stake worth at least $314 million in Elevance Health . While technology stocks rebounded during the first quarter, and investors gravitated back toward beaten-up growth stocks as bonds yields offered some relief, D1 reduced its exposure to some popular names. D1 managed roughly $27.6 billion in assets at the end of March, according to securities filings.
The New York-based hedge fund bought a $205 million initial position in Floor & Decor Holdings , and $104 million worth of shares in mattress maker Tempur Sealy in the fourth quarter. Sundheim placed new bets on fintech companies Bill.com Holdings and Intuit , buying about $91 million and $14 million worth of shares in each company, respectively.

A stunning reversal in Chinese stocks in November has investors once again reassessing whether now is the time to double down on this once-hot market. "Biden's comments that he did not see an imminent threat to Taiwan from China were also noteworthy...," said Chang to CNBC. Investors CNBC spoke to remain encouraged by the country's much-needed reopening but want more evidence to suggest Beijing is easing its zero-Covid policy. The latest third-quarter 13F filings ending Sept. 30 also show several reputable hedge funds reducing their exposure to Chinese tech stocks. These positions may have changed since the end of September, but the data does suggest buy-side investors remain cautious on owning Chinese tech.
D1 Capital doubled down on its tech bets in the third quarter, adding some big names to its portfolio. The quarterly hedge fund filing shows only the positions at the end of September, not any details about the trades. D1 also added a handful of smaller new positions, worth less than $100 million a piece. Sundheim is a hedge fund veteran who previously worked as the chief investment officer at Viking Global Investors. D1, which he started in 2018, managed about $40 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2022.
The hedge fund industry in the early days of a consolidation wave, according to headhunter Ilana Weinstein. The writing is on the wall for hedge funds whose performance have taken massive hits over the last few months. The S&P 500 and the average hedge fund, according to Hedge Fund Research, dropped 18% and 4% year to date, respectively. To stay competitive amid consolidation in the hedge fund industry, Tolkin said $14.1 billion Schonfeld Strategic Advisors is looking to attract talent from different backgrounds and that can provide different ideas. This will help the firm become one of the "winners" amid the industry consolidation, Tolkin said.
