If there is one thing that investors never have a shortage of Wall Street, it is data. Trying to digest an attack of win reports every quarter, as well as almost daily economic data releases, can sometimes be overwhelming. It also makes it easy for something important to fall through the cracks.
For example, an argument can be argued that the submission of form 13f to the Securities and Exchange Commission at the latest 45 calendar days after the end is just as important as the profit season. A 13F is a required request by institutional investors with at least $ 100 million in assets assets (AUM) that describes their purchase and sales activity for the previous quarter.
Although 13Fs are far from perfect – snapshots for active hedge funds are often old – they can provide insight into the shares and trends that create the importance of the leading money managers of Wall Street. And when I say 'leading money managers', I am talking about more than just billionaire Warren Buffett.

The billionaire chef Dan Loeb from Third Point has rightly earned the following. Loeb supervises more than $ 6.5 billion in AUM and has demonstrated a talent for generating profit from a mix of small and large caps growth agents.
The trading activity of LEEB during the quarter of March is particularly interesting. Although he has added 11 new positions (of which 10 individual stock holdings are) and have completely left nine interests, it is his approach with two of the most influential companies in Wall Street that stand out.
Perhaps the biggest surprise of the first quarter of Third Point is that all 500,000 shares of the leading manufacturer of North America (EV) of North America (EV) of North America Tesla(Nasdaq: TSLA) got to see the door.
Interestingly, Loeb initiated the position of his fund in Tesla at a certain moment in the third quarter of 2024. This was at a time when Tesla CEO Elon Musk sustained his support for the then candidate Donald Trump. Expected, if Trump won the presidency, it was expected that it would be positive for Tesla. In the aftermath of Trump's victory, Tesla shares doubled effectively.
Loebs first quarter can therefore be nothing more than a well -placed trade that was fed by political puzzle pieces that fell into place. With the average security in the Third Point portfolio for just over 13 months, Loeb has demonstrated the willingness to retain profits.
However, there is the realistic possibility that other factors have played a role in sending Tesla shares to the chopping block in the quarter of March.
To begin with, the Tesla EV segment does not perform well, with his vehicle margin a decrease of two years. Musk has previously noted that the EV price policy of his company is determined by the demand. With the competition that comes up and Tesla's storage climbing, it has no choice but to become more aggressive with prices. More than half a dozen price reductions have weighed heavily on Tesla's operational margin.
Another problem with Tesla is the quality of the income. Although it has been profitable for five consecutive years, a considerable part of its income before taxes comes from untenable sources, such as legal tax credits and interest income on its cash. Trump's new tax and spending legislation, one, large, beautiful account, will eliminate these regulatory credits for Tesla in the US
The exit from Dan Loeb from Tesla can also be influenced by a headwind created by Elon Musk. Despite the expansion of the income flow of his company with energy generation and storage, Musk has a long -term track record of overpromatization and subdivision. Disappointing Cybertruck Sales, a tame robotaxi launch in Austin, TX, and more than a decade of unfulfilled level 5 autonomy promises suggest that Tesla shares are stuck on nothing more than false promises.
Finally, Tesla's appreciation leaves no room for errors. Even with stagnating turnover that is expected in 2025, the Musk company recommends an inexplicable forward year profit several of 105.

On the other side of the spectrum, a shares that have been loading billionaire than Loeb, including dividends, has risen more than 420,000% since its initial public offer (IPO) in January 1999. The 13F of Third Point shows that Loeb has created the 1,450,000 shares of 1,450,000 shares of 1,450,000 shares Nvidia(Nasdaq: NVDA) In the quarter of March, which only marks the second time that he ever has shares of Wall Street's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Schat.
NVIDIA has not become the largest listed company in Wall Street, or since the end of 2022 was accidentally on the north of $ 3.5 trillion in market capitalization. It has achieved this performance thanks to the range of competitive benefits.
The revenue growth of NVIDIA $ 27 billion in reported sales for the entire year in Tax 2023 (ending on January 2023) to an estimated $ 200 billion in the turnover of the entire year in Fiscal 2026 (ending January 2026)-is a reflection of how dominant its graphic processing units are. The question of the Hopper and successor Blackwell GPU architecture remains left behind.
Despite the best efforts of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing To quickly expand its chip-on-Wafer-on-sub-street capacity, the demand for AI-GPUs is conveniently overwhelmed. This has enabled Nvidia to sell more AI-GPUs annually and also to charge an important premium for its chips, compared to external competitors. AI-GPU scarcity helped Nvidia's gross margin to a peak of 78.4% just over a year ago.
Wall Street has also rewarded Nvidia for his continuous investments in innovation. CEO Jensen Huang tries to put a new AI-advanced chip on the market every year, after Blackwell, who debuted last year, Blackwell Ultra (2025), Vera Rubin (2026) and Vera Rubin Ultra (2027) will be, if everything goes according to plan. The introduction of a new chip every year ensures that Nvidia's hardware will retain its calculation benefits.
The other factor that may have played a role in seducing the billionaire investor of Third Point to take the dive is the Swoon of Nvidia's first quarter. In addition to the general weakness of the stock market caused by Trump's tariff and trade policy, NVIDIA shares in January after the release of the China-based Deepseek's R1 large language model Chatbot. The chatbot of Deepseek is said to have used cheaper and less powerful Nvidia chips. This short decline for Nvidia shares lowered its forward year income and gave Loeb the opportunity to discuss.
But despite his success, Nvidia shares can still be in a bubble. Based on what history tells us, no technology for the big thing has avoided a bubble-bursting event in more than three decades. It will take time before AI grows up as a technology, which exposes Nvidia to the possibility that the AI bubble will burst.
The other important problem for Nvidia, outside of Trump's rate and trade policy, is the inevitable driveway in the competition with which he will be confronted. In particular, many of the largest customers per net sales develop internally AI chips to use in their data centers. Although this hardware is not in risk to compete externally with the AI GPUs of NVIDIA, it could cost the AI Darling of Wall Street Valuable Datacenter in the future, reduce AI-GPU scarcity and postpone upgrade cycli.
