Carl Icahn is one of the top billionaire activist investors that traders actively watch (and follow with real money trades). On Thursday, an Icahn Enterprises (NYSE: IEP) subsidiary announced the closing of its sale of four Nevada casinos to a Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) managed real estate fund called Whitehall Funds.
Valued at $1.2 billion, the sale includes the Vegas-strip Stratosphere, two off-strip Arizona Charlie’s casinos and Aquarius Casino in Laughlin.
Last month the transaction was approved by the Nevada Gaming Commission, so Icahn is definitely getting the funds. Here’s a full list of Icahn’s most current top holdings, and Mr. Icahn is buried in some of these positions. He may want to average down rather than go after new targets.
