The two hedge fund managers are of similar age and manage money in similar fashion, and we believe they do talk to each other from time to time, making it meaningful to find out what stocks they jointly own. One of the premium features of GuruFocus.com – The Aggregated Portfolio feature makes the task really easy. Select the Einhorn and Loeb from the list of Gurus, we found they actually own five stocks in common.
