The latest round of 13F filings from institutional investors is out, revealing to the world the stocks that some of the richest and most successful investors have been buying and selling.

Takeaways From 13F Season

Investors who follow particular fund managers can easily look up what each was buying and selling in the quarter, but other investors may be more interested in overall themes from 13F filings. Overall, it appears buying and selling among fund managers was split relatively evenly in the third quarter.

  • Surprisingly, despite a 27.1% drop in Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) shares in the third quarter, no major fund manager mentioned below was buying or selling shares.
  • The FANG group didn’t get much attention at all in the third quarter aside from David Tepper buying Facebook, Amazon and Google.
  • Carl Icahn took a gamble on Caesars Entertainment, while George Soros dialed back his position.
  • Several fund managers made major adjustments to their ETF positions, including Tepper selling the XOP ETF, Leon Cooperman buying the GLD ETF, and Soros selling both the QQQ and the IWB funds.
  • As interest rates fell, dividend stocks were getting some love this quarter, with fund managers buying stocks like General Motors, BP and Carnival, each of which yield more than 4%.
