Dow Jones News
Billionaire investor George Soros' hedge fund bought more shares
of blue chips AT&T Inc. (T) and Monsanto Co. (MON) in the third
quarter, according to a regulatory filing late Monday.
Soros, who has said that gold is the ultimate bubble, reduced
his direct ownership stake in the SPDR Gold Trust, a gold-backed
exchange-traded fund, by 501,300 shares to 4.7 million shares. The
position was valued at $600.8 million on Sept. 30.
He disclosed, however, call options on 705,000 shares of the
SPDR Gold Trust, which will appreciate in value if shares of the
fund rise. Soros had previously reported a 46,389 "shared" holding
in the fund, but reported no such position at the end of the third
quarter.
The value of Soros's stock holdings was $6.7 billion at the end
of the third quarter. The fund reported stockholdings worth $5.1
billion at the end of the second quarter. The value changes due to
a combination of market action and share purchases and sales.
Soros Fund Management bought 1.3 million shares of AT&T,
raising the value of the position to $51.4 million as of Sept. 30,
according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Soros also purchased 897,813 shares of Monsanto--his
second-largest holding on a dollar basis--during the quarter. The
position is now valued at $312.6 million.
The fund also reported a new position in drug maker Dendreon
Corp. (DNDN), disclosing that it purchased 1.8 million shares
valued at $74.8 million at the end of the third quarter.
In a reversal from its second-quarter disclosure, the fund
bought 2.1 million shares of pharmaceutical giant Pfizer Inc.
(PFE). Soros had previously sold 5 million shares of Pfizer in the
second quarter. His position is now valued at $41.4 million.
Additionally, Soros reported no stake in Best Buy Co. (BBY). The
fund sold 936,895 shares during the third quarter.
Other new holdings include Mentor Graphics Corp. (MENT). Soros
disclosed the purchase of 76.5 million convertible notes of the
company, valued at $79.5 million
Many investors that manage more than $100 million are required
to file 13-Fs with their stock holdings within 45 days of the end
of a given quarter, giving the public its freshest possible glimpse
into the portfolios of well-known money managers. Most hedge-fund
managers and others wait until the last possible moment to make
these filings.
The third quarter's deadline is Monday.
