    Ackman deploys $5B closed-end fund with 45% concentration in META, MSFT, and UBER

    Question

    Ackman deploys $5B closed-end fund with 45% concentration in META, MSFT, and UBER

    Direct answer

    Pershing Square USA's initial $5 billion portfolio deployment shows heavy concentration, allocating 45% of gross assets into Microsoft, Meta Platforms, and Uber Technologies. The repositioning follows Pershing's complete exit from Alphabet during Q2 2026. Meta Platforms has rallied 19% following the Q2 reporting period, supported by engagement with its Muse AI product suite. The institutional rotation underscores a selective approach within mega-cap communications and software assets rather than broad-based index exposure.
