Billionaire Bill Ackman Explains Why He Invested 11% Of His Fund In Berkshire Hathaway Hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman of Pershing Square Capital Management is riding high after a multi-year stretch of trouble. A publicly traded vehicle that houses the vast majority of his fund's assets is up 48% net of fees as of August 13, about triple the return of the S&P 500 Index.
