Key Points
In the first quarter of 2023, seven out of eight billionaires analyzing their Form 13F filings sold shares of Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), a tech giant with a history of earnings growth and potential in AI. Notably, only Bill Ackman of Pershing Square Capital opened a position, buying 5,654,078 shares, which constitutes over 14% of his portfolio.
David Tepper cut his Microsoft holdings by 82% to 90,000 shares, while several others, including Stephen Mandel Jr. and Dan Loeb, fully exited their positions. Microsoft stock trades at 25 times forward earnings estimates amid differing views on its AI growth potential.
Investors are left to consider whether to align with the selling billionaires or follow Ackman’s lead, balancing their own investment strategies in the face of fluctuating market sentiment.
