Tiger Global Management LLC is taking bold risks. Chase Coleman's hedge fund made <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/hedge-funds">aggressive fourth-quarter 2024 bets</a> on high-growth names while shedding some underperformers, signaling a clear preference for tech and digital dominance.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Big Buys: Betting On Disruption</h2>
Tiger Global&#8217;s latest 13F <a href="https://13f.info/13f/000091957425001475-tiger-global-management-llc-q4-2024#google_vignette">filing </a>shows that as of Dec. 31, 2024, it increased its stakes in several growth stocks, with Spotify Technology SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) leading the charge—a 2.13% increase in its portfolio weighting.
The fund also jumped on Reddit Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>) ahead of its much-anticipated public momentum, boosting its position by 1.11%. 
Cybersecurity leader Zscaler Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZS#NASDAQ">ZS</a>) and e-commerce giant PDD Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) also saw meaningful increases, reinforcing Tiger's focus on digital transformation.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Major Exits: A Health Check On UnitedHealth</h2>
The biggest surprise? Tiger Global slashed its UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>) stake by 5.06%, moving away from the insurance titan amid regulatory uncertainties.
Also on the chopping block were Nu Holdings Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NU#NYSE">NU</a>), ZoomInfo Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZI#NASDAQ">ZI</a>) and Toast Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TOST#NYSE">TOST</a>) &#8211; all seeing reductions, albeit on a smaller scale.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Core Holdings: Meta Still Reigns Supreme</h2>
Despite the shake-ups, Tiger's core conviction remains clear: Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) still dominates its portfolio, making up 16.52% of its holdings. 
Other tech titans like Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) and Apollo Global Management (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>) round out the top positions, showcasing a clear tilt toward AI, cloud computing, and digital media.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Takeaway: Tiger's Tech-Forward Playbook</h2>
Tiger Global's fourth-quarter strategy signals a full-speed-ahead approach to tech, AI, and digital consumer trends while dialing back on legacy finance and healthcare.
With AI-driven companies and disruptive digital platforms leading the portfolio, Coleman&#8217;s fund continues to invest heavily in technology&#8217;s future &#8211; systematically removing exposure to declining sectors.

Check Out What Whales Are Doing With Nu Holdings

Nu Holdings's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NU#NYSE">NU</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.25% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 128.96 million shares sold short, which is 3.45% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.71 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Nu Holdings has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Nu Holdings's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Nu Holdings's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 0.97%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Shares of companies within the banking and financial sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness as investors react to developments regarding advancements in Chinese artificial intelligence. Additionally, investors could be assessing the economic impact of potential tariffs and trade uncertainty.

On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said he is worried about The Wendy&#8217;s Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">WEN</a>).
Cramer says it should not have a 7% yield, adding, &#8220;That, to me, suggests something may be wrong here.
Morgan Stanley analyst John Glass supported his view on Jan. 21, downgrading Wendy&#8217;s from Equal-Weight to Underweight and lowering the price target from $22 to $14.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Nu Is A &#8216;Really Hard&#8217; Company</h3>
Nu Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NU#NYSE">NU</a>) is a &#8220;really hard&#8221; company. Cramer added that he prefers SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>) over the fintech firm.
Supporting his view, Citigroup analyst Ashwin Shirvaikar, on Dec. 2, downgraded the rating from Neutral to Sell on the stock and lowered its price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NU/analyst-ratings">target from $14.6 to $11</a>.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Other Stocks In Focus</h3>
TETRA Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTI#NYSE">TTI</a>) is a &#8220;very good company, and it did come up from the ashes,&#8221; Cramer said. &#8220;As a matter of fact, it's come up so much, it's up 28% for the year, so I cannot sanction buying it.&#8221;
The company's stock also jumped more than 33% over the past month.
When asked about Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABT#NYSE">ABT</a>), he said, &#8220;I can't recommend anything on a straight line. But if it pulls back a couple bucks, though, it's good, because this should be one of the great pharma stories because it's got the best growth in device and pharmaceuticals.&#8221;
Abbott Laboratories, meanwhile, on Jan. 22, reported fourth-quarter sales of $10.97 billion, up 7.2% year over year, missing the consensus of $11.01 billion.
&#8220;This one has been around forever, and it just caught fire,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about Casella Waste Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CWST#NASDAQ">CWST</a>). The &#8220;Mad Money&#8221; host added that although it's good he will go back to Waste Management, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WM#NYSE">WM</a>).
Adding support to his choice, Jefferies analyst Stephanie Moore, on Jan. 23, downgraded Casella Waste from Buy to Hold and lowered the price target from $115 to $113.
Price Action:
<ul>
<li>TETRA Technologies shares fell 1.7% to settle at $4.60 on Friday.</li>
<li>Abbott shares gained 1.5% to close at $125.03 during the session.</li>
<li>Wendy's shares gained 0.6% to settle at $14.30 on Friday.</li>

Jim Cramer Is Worried About This Consumer Cyclical Stock: 7% Yield? 'Something May Be Wrong Here'

Despite his well-known disdain for cryptocurrencies, the &#8216;Oracle Of Omaha&#8217; &#8211; Warren Buffett&#8216;s Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) has invested in a company that supports the cryptocurrency market and has soared by 27.43% in 2024.
What Happened: Buffett&#8217;s Berkshire had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/39093145/berkshire-hathaway-profits-f[%E2%80%A6]to-despite-warren-buffets-stance-on-not-buying-even-if-all-w">initially</a> invested $500 million in a Series G funding round and subsequently another $250 million in Nu Holdings Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NU#NYSE">NU</a>). 
Nu, a Brazilian digital banking company launched its cryptocurrency platform, Nubank Cripto, in 2022. Berkshire has since added 0.3% of this company&#8217;s shares in 18 months as of the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2024. 
Berkshire increased its holdings from 0.1% in the fourth quarter that ended Dec. 31, 2022, to 0.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Initially supporting Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), and Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/matic/usd">MATIC</a>), the platform, Nubank Cripto, now includes Uniswap (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/uni/usd">UNI</a>) and Chainlink (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/link/usd">LINK</a>). It allows users to send, receive, and convert cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins like USD Coin.
In 2018, during Berkshire Hathaway Inc.&#8217;s annual <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37513063/warren-buffett-says-he-wouldnt-pay-25-for-all-the-bitcoin-in-the-world-he-considers-crypto-rat-poiso">shareholder</a> meeting, Buffett famously described Bitcoin as &#8220;probably rat poison squared&#8221;. On the contrary, Berkshire has profited substantially through its investment in Nu.

Why It Matters: According to its 13F filings, Berkshire held 86.438 million shares of Nu valued at $1.179 billion, as of the end of the third quarter.
With data for the fourth quarter not available at the time of writing, assuming that Berkshire&#8217;s holdings in Nu don&#8217;t change during this period, the value of these shares would have declined by 24.10% as of the quarter ended Dec. 31, when the share price was $10.36, as compared to $13.65 on Sept. 30, 2024.
However, Nu&#8217;s shares have risen by 27.43% in 2024, according to the data compiled by <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-730370" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-1024x576.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-300x169.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-768x432.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024-1536x864.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/13074755/nu-in-2024.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure>
While Nu offers cryptocurrency services, one can argue in favor of Buffett that it&#8217;s not primarily a cryptocurrency company.
However, back in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37513063/warren-buffett-says-he-wouldnt-pay-25-for-all-the-bitcoin-in-the-world-he-considers-crypto-rat-poiso">2018</a>, Buffett also said &#8220;In terms of cryptocurrencies generally, I can say almost with certainty that they will come to a bad ending.&#8221;

Shares of banking and financial services stocks are trading higher following strong bank earnings.

Nu Holdings's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NU#NYSE">NU</a>) short percent of float has fallen 4.91% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 135.97 million shares sold short, which is 3.68% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.97 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Nu Holdings Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1736784011_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Nu Holdings has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Nu Holdings's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Nu Holdings's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 0.98%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
