As experts in trading and Warren Buffett’s investment strategies, Extreme Investor Network is always on the lookout for the latest moves in the market. One recent development that caught our attention was Baupost’s Seth Klarman’s investment decisions last quarter.
Klarman made some significant moves, taking a sizable stake in discount retailer Dollar General, while also exiting his investment in Capri, the parent company of Michael Kors. This bold move paid off as Capri’s planned merger with Tapestry was blocked by regulators, causing a sharp decline in the company’s stock price.
Dollar General, on the other hand, has been facing challenges this year, with a decrease in sales and profit guidance. Despite these setbacks, Klarman saw potential in the retailer and built a $195 million stake in the company, making it one of his top holdings.
Klarman’s investment decisions reflect his patient and disciplined approach, similar to Warren Buffett’s investing style. Often dubbed “The Oracle of Boston,” Klarman has made a name for himself by following the principles of value investing laid out by Benjamin Graham.
In addition to his investments in Dollar General and Capri, Klarman also increased his positions in companies like Alphabet, Wesco International, and Eagle Materials. He also added a small stake in Tamboran Resources, an Australian oil and gas firm, which could potentially be a value play.
