Description

Bill Ackman's $5B Pershing Square IPO stumbled on day one due to retail investor settlement issues, but Ackman quickly bought 1.3M shares personally and deployed ~$1.75B into an AI-focused portfolio including Meta, Alphabet, Uber, and Amazon. He called Zuckerberg an effective capital allocator and said AI ad returns are already boosting Meta's customers.
