Hedge Fund-Owned REIT Beats Analyst Expectations
Hedge fund manager David Einhorn’s Green Brick Partners—a $420M residential REIT—saw a 17% jump at the close of last week, erasing this year's losses.
Green Brick traded for $7.39 at 4 pm Friday—up $1.07—producing adjusted earnings over the last three months that blows most companies out of the water, Bloomberg reports.
And Einhorn has even more reasons to be pleased. Q4 revenue from the sale of residential properties jumped 34% to $75.1M. If that wasn’t enough, his main hedge fund rose 3.3% this year through February while his Greenlight Capital is up 17% since Dec. 31. [Bloomberg]
