Greenlight Capital's Q4 Letter: New Positions in Micron, BP, & Anadarko Petroleum

David Einhorn's hedge fund Greenlight Capital returned 19.1% net in 2013.  Greenlight's fourth quarter letter to investors unveils their thesis on new positions in Micron Technology (MU), BP (BP), and Anadarko Petroleum (APC).

Greenlight likes Micron because the industry has started to act a bit more rationally and MU will buyback shares instead of building new factories.

Their BP stake is a play on increasingly shareholder friendly capital allocation policies as well and they think the company is worth $70 per share (it trades around $49 now).  

Additionally, their letter talks about some positions they've closed recently like Airbus Group (formerly EADS), and ThyssenKrupp.

At the end of 2013, Greenlight's largest positions in alphabetical order were: Apple (AAPL), General Motors (GM), Marvell Technology (MRVL), Micron (MU), and Vodafone (VOD).
