Bloomberg – Hedge funds run by John Paulson, George Soros and Steve Mandel cut back on bank shares in the second quarter, before Citigroup Inc. and Bank of America Corp. lost more than one-fifth of their value.
Tudor Investment Corp. and TPG-Axon Capital Management LP were among those trimming banks, according to filings made to the Securities and Exchange Commission by yesterday’s deadline. Fidelity Investments, the second-biggest U.S. mutual-fund company, sold 25 million shares of New York-based JPMorgan Chase & Co., or about 21 percent of its stake.
