Extended read

Despite billionaire investor Dan Loeb's public commendation of semiconductors as the 'most attractive sector' in the AI boom, his hedge fund, Third Point, made a significant move by drastically reducing its Nvidia holdings. In the first quarter of 2026, Third Point cut its Nvidia stake by 90%, decreasing from 2.95 million shares to just 190,000 shares. Concurrently, the fund also fully exited its positions in Microsoft and Alibaba, indicating a broader portfolio rebalancing or a shift in investment thesis. This action by a notable investor could be interpreted as a signal of potential valuation concerns for Nvidia, despite the ongoing optimism surrounding the AI sector.
