Dalio is a billionaire investor and a hedge fund manager. He is also the Co-Chief Investment Officer at Bridgewater Associates, one of the world’s largest investment management firms. As per Forbes, as of January 21, 2022, Dalio had an estimated net worth of $20 billion.
Transaction Details
In Bridgewater’s latest filing, Tesla’s 25,500 shares worth $27 million (as of December 2021) were missing, indicating that the hedge fund manager divested his stake. The twists and turns in Musk’s Twitter (TWTR) deal may have triggered Dalio to sell his stake.
