Super-rich family offices increased their bets on chip stocks in the first quarter, with mixed attitudes toward energy stocks.
ME News, May 21 (UTC+8): Regulatory filings show that, in the first quarter of 2026, private investment vehicles owned by ultra-wealthy individuals continued to increase their positions in chipmakers. Some family offices also added positions in energy producers, betting that conflicts in the Middle East would push up oil prices, while others chose to lock in profits.
David Tepper’s family office, Appaloosa Management, increased its stake in Micron Technology (MU.O) by 11%, making it its second-largest holding as of the end of March. Appaloosa also raised its stake in TSMC (TSM.N) by 18% to $448.6 million, and newly built a $79.0 million position in SanDisk (SNDK.O).
Stanley Druckenmiller’s private investment firm, Duquesne Family Office, also disclosed a new $24 million position in SanDisk (SNDK.O) and a $161 million holding in Broadcom (AVGO.O). Soros Fund Management, under George Soros, increased its stake in Nvidia (NVDA.O) by 61% to $187 million.
Duquesne, meanwhile, locked in some gains by liquidating positions in Entegris and ON Semiconductor (ON.O). Appaloosa also cut its Nvidia holdings by 13%.
Against the backdrop of the Iran war, billionaire family offices adopted different strategies toward energy stocks. Appaloosa increased its stake in Texas power and generation company Vistra Corp by more than double to $304 million, while billionaire hedge fund manager Michael Platt’s private investment firm, BlueCrest Capital Management, liquidated its $103 million position in the same stock.
