Greenlight Capital, an investment management firm, recently released its Q3 2026 investor letter. A copy of the letter can be downloaded here. The funds returned -3.3% in the third quarter of 2026, compared with a 2.3% gain for the S&P 500, bringing their year-to-date return to -1.5% against the index’s 12.7% advance. The disappointing performance reflected weakness across the fund’s long portfolio, which declined 8.5%, while its short portfolio gained 7.1%. Several holdings fell between 10% and 25% without identifiable company-specific catalysts. A significant portion of the letter focused on the economics of artificial intelligence. The firm estimated that current worldwide end-user AI revenue is probably below $100 billion, compared with the approximately $30 trillion total addressable market claimed by some industry participants. It also highlighted the intense competition among AI providers, the availability of open-source models, and the possibility that substantial capital could be destroyed during the infrastructure buildout. The macro portfolio lost 2.0% during the quarter, bringing its year-to-date decline to 6.0%, largely because the fund’s position anticipating Federal Reserve rate cuts moved against it. Greenlight reduced that position by one-third for risk-management purposes. In addition, please check the Fund’s top five holdings to know its best picks in 2026.
