TheStreet – Legendary investor George Soros, 81 years old, had a wild second quarter as his $5.6 billion hedge fund added 198 new stocks and sold out of 348 in what turned out to be a wholesale reshuffling of his portfolio.
A few of the largest new acquisitions for Soros Fund Management are: Golar LNG Partners, which operates a fleet of liquid-natural-gas carriers; computer giant International Business Machines; Semiconductor HOLDRs, an exchange traded fund that invests in semiconductor makers; VMware, a provider of virtualization software for cloud-computing systems; and SandRidge Energy, an oil and natural-gas company.
