8 Top Stocks From the World's Largest Hedge Fund

8 Top Stocks From the World's Largest Hedge Fund

https://money.usnews.com/investing/stock-market-news/slideshows/top-stocks-from-the-worlds-largest-hedge-fund?slide=5



Ray Dalio’s Bridgewater Associates is the largest hedge fund in the world with more than $160 billion in assets, and its Pure Alpha fund has averaged an annual gain of about 12% since 1991 and has logged just three down years in that stretch. Thanks to quarterly 13-F filings, any investor can track Dalio’s latest moves.

Here are Bridgewater’s eight largest stock holdings.

1. Biogen (ticker: BIIB). Biogen develops drugs for treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases, and its multiple sclerosis business holds about an 18% share of the $18 billion global market. Dalio owns 240,378 shares of BIIB stock worth about $56.8 million.

2. Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY). Dalio started accumulating his stake in Bristol-Myers in the second quarter of 2018 but raised his stake by 78% in the first quarter to 989,293 shares worth about $47.2 million. Investors emulating Dalio should be buying Bristol-Myers on the dip after the stock dropped 22.2% in the past year in part on concerns about opioid litigation. – Wayne Duggan
