Is it really concentrated?

LUK market cap is ~$12B, so the 13F portfolio is 4% of market cap.

Revenues for LUK in ’07 were ~$1.2B. Cash and cash equivalents as of 12/31/07 were ~$457MM.

Please take a look at the annual report to better understand the company’s investment holdings (public and private).

I know they own outright other businesses such as wineries and have a real estate arm. they are also a 10% investor in Pershing for Target.

FYI, market cap is not equal to the company’s equity.

the company’s 5,347Million.

Hence, it makes the stocks holding equal to 9% of the company’s net worth.
