Billionaire Doubles Down On Valeant

Billionaire hedge fund manager John Paulson has more than tripled the size of his stake in Valeant Pharmaceuticals Intl Inc. (TSX:VRX)(NYSE:VRX), which could suggest the biotech giant has a lot more upside ahead of it.

Valeant has become a favourite among hedge funds. Since 2010 shares have climbed more than 15-fold, making early investors rich in the process. However, Paulson’s position indicates the company still has a long-growth runway.

According to SEC filings published last week, the money manager increased his stake in Valeant nearly fourfold during the first quarter.
