Einhorn's Greenlight Capital Moves Gold Holdings Into Bullion From ETFs (GLD)

July 14, 2009 6:25 PM EDT

According to reports from Bloomberg, David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital hedge fund switched its gold holdings from ETF SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE: GLD) into bullion in the second quarter. Einhorn said it is cheaper to keep the gold in a storage facility than the fees paid for the ETF. Einhorn has been buying gold due to concerns about inflation.

Greenlight Capital gained 16.3% in the second quarter, bringing its YTD return to 21.5%. Last year, the fund lost 23%.
