As part of the weekly research here at The Acquirer’s Multiple we’re always interested in superinvestors who hold the same stocks that appear in our Acquirer’s Multiple Stock Screeners, based on their latest 13F’s. Investors such as Warren Buffett, Joel Greenblatt, Carl Icahn, Jim Simons, Prem Watsa, Jeremy Grantham, Seth Klarman, Ray Dalio, and Howard Marks.
While doing this research we’ve also uncovered a number of stocks that superinvestors have sold, or reduced in their portfolios, according to their latest 13f’s. So we’re now providing a new weekly feature article called ‘One Stock Superinvestors Are Selling‘. This week we’ll take a look at:

2 Comments on “The One Stock That Superinvestors Are Dumping: Is It Time to Sell?”
This is confusing and unclear to me.
Is this the number of shares they sold, the number of shares they are still holding onto?
Without two numbers I don’t see how the data has value.
If they had 2mil shares and now have zero, then that needs to be clearly shown, otherwise there is no valuable information here.
Example:
Ken Fisher – 17,587,320 sold, zero still held
OR
Ken Fisher – 3,000,000 sold, 17,587,320 still held
This is objective and usable information and gives weight to your comments.
Thank you for your time.
Thanks for your comment.
The data includes only the number of shares remaining in the investor’s portfolio after they sold the stock, according to their latest 13f.
