If You Invested $100 In This Stock 20 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

Billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller&#8216;s family office Duquesne has divested his entire stake in Broadcom, simultaneously increasing his investments in major tech companies, as revealed in a recent 13-F filing.
What Happened: According to a recent&nbsp;SEC filing, Druckenmiller, a seasoned investor, sold all his shares of&nbsp;Broadcom Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) in the fourth quarter. This move comes on the heels of his total exit from Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), a competing chipmaker, a few months prior.
In the closing months of 2024, Druckenmiller significantly reduced his tech stock portfolio, selling his entire stakes in&nbsp;Microsoft Corp.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>),&nbsp;Adobe Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADBE#NASDAQ">ADBE</a>) and&nbsp;Autodesk Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADSK#NASDAQ">ADSK</a>). He also completely sold his stake in&nbsp;Starbucks Corp.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>) and his shares in insurance company&nbsp;Chubb Ltd.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CB#NYSE">CB</a>).
Despite these divestments, Druckenmiller increased his investments in several big tech companies in the same quarter, acquiring new positions in&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>),&nbsp;Amazon.com Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), and Elon Musk&#8216;s electric vehicle manufacturer&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
Druckenmiller&#8217;s Duquesne also initiated new investments in United Airlines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NYSE">UAL</a>), Delta Air Lines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), Warner Bros. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NYSE">WBD</a>), Skechers (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SKX#NYSE">SKX</a>), and Eli Lilly (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>).
The most significant holding in his Duquesne Family Office remains Natera (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTRA#NASDAQ">NTRA</a>), the clinical genetic-testing company in which they held a stake since 2022. Natera holdings account for just over 15% of the portfolio. Meanwhile, the firm increased its stake in Teva Pharmaceuticals (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEVA#NYSE">TEVA</a>) by nearly 6.3 times. 
SEE ALSO: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43649046/warner-bros-jinjiang-international-collaborate-for-harry-potter-studio-tour-in-shanghai">Warner Bros Announces Shanghai Harry Potter Studio Tour—Set To Be Four Times Larger Than London&#8217;s</a>
Why It Matters: Druckenmiller, who formerly managed hedge funds for George Soros, now manages his own wealth through the Duquesne Family Office, which has investments worth nearly $3.72 billion.
The billionaire investor&#8217;s latest moves follow his earlier divestments in AI stocks. During the third quarter of 2024, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42668157/stanley-druckenmiller-dumps-streets-hottest-ai-stocks-heres-what-the-billionaire-investor-is-betting-on-next">Druckenmiller sold all of its Nvidia shares and significantly reduced its Palantir holdings</a> by 95%. This occurred despite Nvidia and Palantir experiencing significant stock surges that year, with Nvidia&#8217;s stock increasing nearly 190% and Palantir&#8217;s shares gaining over 386%. 
The current quarter&#8217;s exit from Broadcom despite the stock surging more than 100% over the past year appears as a profit booking move. Meanwhile, other additions in big tech stocks show his growing confidence in the sector.
Druckenmiller added Tesla to its portfolio which surged over 83% in the past year. However, the stock plunged more than 16% over the last month, amid declining global sales, regulatory roadblocks in China, earnings disappointment, and Musk&#8217;s increasing political involvement.

Billionaire Investor Stanley Druckenmiller Dumps Broadcom, Bets Big On Tesla, Amazon And Other Big Tech Stocks In Q4

Winter weather is moving into nearly every part of the country this week and threatens to bring several different weather hazards depending on location. An atmospheric river is taking aim at fire-scarred areas of Southern California, while the MidAtlantic and Northeast regions brace for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43544471/winter-storm">more snow and ice.&nbsp;</a>
MidAtlantic Snow: The first major weather event of this busy week will strike the MidAtlantic region on Tuesday with snow and ice spreading through the Washington D.C., Philadelphia and New York City metro areas.&nbsp;

AccuWeather meteorologists warn that the <a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/winter-weather/early-week-winter-storm-to-dump-snow-from-dc-to-philly-nyc/1743253">storm</a> will trigger plowing operations and deicing activity at airports in an area covering approximately 200,000 square miles. 
Travelers should prepare for delays and disruptions. Two of the largest airlines serving the Washington D.C. and Philadelphia airports are American Airlines Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) and Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>).&nbsp;
Northeast Snow: A second snow and ice storm will follow quickly on the heels of the MidAtlantic snow, arriving on Wednesday night with snow forecast for New England and rain further south. Snow will change to sleet and freezing rain during the day on Thursday and come to an end on Thursday night. 
Grocery and home improvement stores may see increased traffic as people stock up on food and essentials before the storm. Retailers like Walmart, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) and Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) could see a boost in revenue from storm-related sales.&nbsp;
California Rain: An atmospheric river is lining up and will hit California on Wednesday, with the worst of the weather expected on Thursday. The storm is expected to be the strongest in a year, according to <a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-02-11/strongest-southern-california-storm-in-a-year-what-to-know">the</a> Los Angeles Times and will bring heavy rains to the entire state, including fire-damaged areas of Los Angeles. 
The National Weather Service warned of "potentially life-threatening and damaging flooding and debris flows," which are a type of landslide that may affect the recently burned areas.&nbsp;
Residents and insurance companies in Southern California, like Allstate Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Chubb Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CB#NYSE">CB</a>), may take another hit if further damage is caused by landslides and debris flows in the fire-ravaged areas.&nbsp;

Chubb Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CB#NYSE">CB</a>), one of the largest domestic property and casualty insurers, held its fourth-quarter earnings call on Wednesday and addressed the future financial impacts resulting from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43168966/la-wildfire-update-hughes-fire-burns-10000-acres-travelers-insurance-says-fires-will-have-material-impact-on-q1-earnings">recent California wildfires. </a>
The Details: Chubb CEO Evan Greenberg opened the call by expressing his condolences to the wildfire victims and gratitude to the first responders.&nbsp;
"We&#8217;re doing all we can in small and big ways to ease their burden. Our thoughts are with those who have suffered, and our gratitude goes to those firefighters and emergency workers who served tirelessly," Greenberg said.&nbsp;

The Chubb CEO then estimated losses from the wildfire catastrophe at $1.5 billion net pre-tax to be recognized in the first quarter.&nbsp;
Piper Sandler analyst Paul Newsome said that given Chubb's exposure to the high net worth area that was affected, investors will likely see Chubb's current loss estimate as in-line or less than what they had expected.&nbsp;
BofA Securities analysts had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43068088/allstate-chubb-progressive-face-significant-losses-from-wildfires-weather-events-say-analysts-ahead-of-q4-reports">previously projected </a>$1.3 billion in first-quarter catastrophe losses resulting from the wildfires. Chubb's current estimate exceeds that figure by $200 million.&nbsp;
Chubb's CEO Greenberg also addressed an analyst's question regarding the fallout from the fires on California&#8217;s troubled insurance market. 
Greenberg said California is a "difficult" market for insurance companies due to the risk of natural disasters, high cost of reconstruction and state regulations that "suppresses the ability to charge a fair price for the risk."
He pointed to California's FAIR plan, its state-backed insurer of last resort, as also underpriced.&nbsp;
"Frankly, it&#8217;s an unsustainable model. And one way or the other, the citizens of the state pay the price for coverage," Greenberg said.&nbsp;
The CEO explained that Chubb has been reducing its exposure to the affected area "for some time" and reduced its exposure now by over 50%. 
"We&#8217;re not going to write insurance where we cannot achieve a reasonable risk-adjusted return for taking the risk," Greenberg concluded.&nbsp;

Chubb CEO Expects $1.5 Billion Loss From LA Wildfires: 'California Is A Difficult Market For Insurance Companies'

Caution dominates Wednesday's midday trading session in New York as investors anxiously await the Federal Open Market Committee decision <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">at 2 p.m. ET</a>.
The Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates unchanged at 4.25%-4.5%. Market participants remain highly focused on any signals from Fed Chair Jerome Powell regarding the path forward for rate cuts.
The December meeting delivered a shock to markets, with Powell adopting a more hawkish tone than anticipated, suggesting that interest rates have moved closer to a neutral zone.
This FOMC meeting is also the first since Donald Trump's administration took office, fueling speculation over whether Powell will address questions about the president's pledge to &#8220;lower interest rates immediately.&#8221;
Major equity indices are little changed, with tech stocks under slight pressure as Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) fell 5%, weighing on the sector. Tech titans Microsoft Corp.
