Billionaire Stanley Druckenmiller Dumps $2,500,000,000 Portfolio, Pours Millions Into New Asset: Report

Billionaire Stanley Druckenmiller is exploring new opportunities after dumping more than $2.5 billion in stocks. The famed investor and head of Duquesne Family Office sold all of the firm’s shares of Nvidia (NVDA) last year, along with nearly all of the firm’s stake in Palantir (PLTR). Now, Druckenmiller is beginning to pour some of the firm’s massive cash stockpile into Teva Pharmaceutical (TEVA), buying 1,427,950 shares worth about $30.3 million, reports the Motley Fool. The stock surged more than 100% in 2024, as the company settled opioid litigation and reported strong growth after centering its efforts on brand-name drugs. As of Q3 2024, the top holdings at the Duquesne Family Office include Natera (NTRA) worth $452 million, Coupang (CPNG) valued at $287 million, Coherent (COHR) at $264 million, Woodward (WWD) at $181 million and Seagate Technology (STX) at $179 million. In a recent interview with Nicolai Tangen, CEO of Norges Bank Investment Management, Druckenmiller said his top concern is whether the Federal Reserve started cutting rates too soon. “When this whole inflationary episode started, and I’d say two years ago or a year and a half ago, I was very confident that inflation was going to come down, which I was right on. But I was worried about the economy, which I was completely wrong on. You can take this with a grain of salt since I had one right and one wrong there, I’ve switched to being more worried about inflation going forward than the economy itself. I’m a little worried that the Fed has declared victory too early. I don’t have conviction like I had in 2021 that inflation was going to go up, that’s when the money supply was growing 40% and all sorts of things were happening. But I also don’t have conviction that they’ve snuffed this thing out and won the battle.” Don`t Miss a Beat – Subscribe to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox Check Price Action Follow us on X , Facebook and Telegram Surf The Daily Hodl Mix Disclaimer: Opinions expressed at The Daily Hodl are not investment advice.

Bitcoin Dominates 2024, Outperforms Gold And Major Indices – Details

If there’s one crypto asset that is expected to make it big this 2025, it has got to be Bitcoin. The premiere crypto has demonstrated remarkable success as it ushers in 2025. Registering solid numbers in the last few weeks, analysts have high hopes that it can make further breakthroughs. In fact, based on latest research, Bitcoin has surpassed conventional asset classes such as gold, cementing the optimism behind the coin. The digital coin’s success this year is unsurprising, attributable to several advantageous market conditions, including Donald Trump’s victory in the recent US elections.

According to a report from Creative Planning, and from a post on Twitter/X by Charlie Bilello, Bitcoin’s performance dwarfed the results of other asset classes, with gold offering returns of just 26%. The same data shows the Nasdaq 100 gained 25%, US large caps 24%, mid-caps 13%, and convertible bonds 10%. Although proving showing decent numbers, Bitcoin is still a volatile asset with dramatic price swings. With the exception of Long Duration Treasuries, every major asset finished higher in 2024 with Bitcoin leading the way for the second straight year.https://t.co/l5IYmkf6Ih pic.twitter.com/TyStoT73rp — Charlie Bilello (@charliebilello) January 1, 2025 Bitcoin Edges Gold And Other US Indexes Although Bitcoin has received a few criticisms and was the subject of regulatory actions, it remains a top-performing asset class. Since 2011, BTC has led all other asset classes, except for at least three years where it yielded negative returns to holders. For example, in 2018, Bitcoin’s yield was at -73%. But most of the time, Bitcoin was a consistent performer, and there were even some instances when yields topped 1,000%. According to the same chart, Bitcoin even offered yields of 1,437% in 2011, even beating long-term treasuries with a “modest” 34%. There were instances when Bitcoin’s yield disappointed its holders and investors. If we check the asset’s yield this year, we’ll discover that it’s lower than last year’s 156% return. Last year, Bitcoin was also the top performer among major asset classes, also beating gold. Bitcoin Shows Strength, But Volatility Remains While most of the past 14 years have seen great performance of Bitcoin against other asset classes, its volatility still raises questions. Owning Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies always has hazards related to erratic price swings and even policy announcements.
