Bill Ackman, the billionaire manager of prominent hedge fund Pershing Square Capital, is one of the most outspoken voices on Wall Street. This has earned him a devoted following of individual investors who follow his trades.
Although he has been on the wrong side of several bets, Ackman earned notoriety for his profitable investments in Chipotle (CMG) and Wendy’s (WEN) and his work in restructuring mall operator General Growth Properties.
