David Tepper — Appaloosa

B+ SEC EDGAR (13F-HR) ↗ Appaloosa founded 1993; current 13F series under Appaloosa LP since 2016

A sworn SEC filing, but a lagged quarterly window: long US-listed equities only, up to 45 days old on arrival, no return series derivable. The fund-era record (public-filing years) is historical.

Asset focusUS equities with a distressed-and-macro heritage — 25 positions, led by the mega-cap complex and China exposure
StyleOpportunistic concentration where the macro case is loudest; Appaloosa returned outside capital in 2019 and runs as a family office
StandingA single Tepper television appearance can move indices; the filing is read for the macro signal

The Closelook read

Twenty-five positions behind one of the most market-moving voices in US investing — a book that concentrates where the macro case is loudest, currently led by Amazon at 16.0%.

Tepper sits between the Ackman and Druckenmiller poles: concentrated enough that single filings carry signal, rotated enough that the lag matters. Since outside capital was returned in 2019, the filing is a family-office book — nobody audits it against client statements, which is the structural reason a 13F caps at B+ in this catalogue no matter how famous the filer. The record that made the name, including the 2009 financials trade, predates this filing series.
