It's that time of quarter - when the whales of investing have to reveal what they are doing on the long side to the SEC (they can still keep secret their shorts).  There are a lot of websites that will be looking at these disclosures in the next 48 hours so we'll just focus on a few.  When I did some "Googling" on George Soros last night I was taken aback how controversial a figure this guy is; there are more stories about his politics than investing.   I could care less about his politics, he is a smart guy who uhhh... admittedly plays the gray side of the rule book at times, but <>Goldm...

Chesapeake Cuts a Deal With Plains Exploration & Production: 'Lump Sum Please'

Chesapeake Energy (CHK) knows the value of a dollar today. Wednesday, last week, the company announced it had amended a joint venture agreement with Plains Exploration & Production Company (PXP) in order to receive an up front payment that had previously been scheduled to last over a three year period. According to the deal, PXP will pay $1.1 billion to Chesapeake on September 29, which represents a 12% reduction in the total drilling obligations, but gives Chesapeake access to the capital right away.

Buffett, Rogers and Soros portfolios.

Recently Warren Buffett has been interviewed by CNBC where he provided his prediction for economy and stock markets. He can see stabilizing economy but not significant signs of economic recovery. As he mentioned financial crisis is over. He still believes in attractive valuation at the stock markets. In his opinion stocks are definitely better for next 10 years than government bonds. Among the industries he prefers Consumer goods and Financials. His portfolio holdings are Coca Cola (KO), Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNI) and Wells Fargo (WFC)

Jim Rogers is neutral right now. No short, no lo...

John Paulson Continues to Pile Into Gold (GLD); George Soros Sells Some Petrobras (PBR) and Potash (POT)

Now that SEC filings for 1st quarter 2009 have come in, a very quick look at some moves from the hottest hedge fund manager over the past 3 years, John Paulson and venerable George Soros.

Paulson continues to grow his gold stash as he views inflation rather than deflation the coming scourge. [Mar 17, 2009: John Paulson Joins David Einhorn as Gold Bug with Stake in AngloGold Ashanti (AU)] Amazingly his fund now owns 8.7% of the entire SPRD Gold Trust (GLD) - wow. And if I read this correct a 15% stake in the Gold Miners ETF (GDX).
