Here are the top few names from their 13F. We know that most of the value of L is in their publicly listed subsidiaries.

The total equity portfolio is $12.2 billion. They have close to $5 billion of investments at the parent level excluding the three large listed subsidiaries, and I think a couple of the Tisch kids are portfolio managers there (but not sure).
Here are the kids listed in the proxy:
We can't say if the pay is high or low as we don't know, really, what they do. But as portfolio managers, unless they manage a large portion of the $5 billion, it may be a little high. But again, we don't know exactly what they do, so hard to say...Alexander Tisch, son of Mr. A.H. Tisch, is employed as a Vice President in the Company’s Corporate Development Department. Mr. Tisch, an at-will employee, earned compensation of $850,000 in 2015 and participated in benefit programs available to salaried employees generally. In February 2016, he was granted 6,000 restricted stock units under our 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan, subject to approval of the plan by shareholders at the meeting.Benjamin Tisch, son of Mr. J.S. Tisch, is employed as a Vice President in the Company’s Corporate Development Department. Mr. Tisch, an at-will employee, earned compensation of $850,000 for 2015 and participated in benefit programs available to salaried employees generally. In February 2016, he was granted 6,000 restricted stock units under our 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan, subject to approval of the plan by shareholders at the meeting.
In any case, the point is that there is some portfolio management going on at L other than the large sub holdings. A lot of that will be cash/bonds, and maybe some hedge funds, but they do also own stocks.
So let's look at the portfolio excluding the large subs. I think this excludes the CNA portfolio; CNA is a consolidated sub, but they file 13F's separately.

The total equity porfolio excluding the large subs come to $631 million, so less than 10% of the parent company cash and investments. This figure is actually not totally accurate as it includes the notional amounts of both puts and calls. We have no idea what the strike prices of the options are etc. You will notice that some positions have the word "put" or "call" next to them. Those are put or call positions.
Anyway, $631 million in stock may seem defensive and conservative, which makes sense given their overall cautious view. But then again, they have three huge long positions too so no need to be swinging for the fences with parent liquidity.
GE is their largest non-subsidiary equity holding but this may be related to James Tisch being on the board. I don't mean to say that he used L funds to hold a position in a company he sits on the board of. It probably goes both ways; he probably likes the company and stock and therefore owns the stock for L and is a board member for the same reason.
Of course, a less than $1 billion equity portfolio is too small a piece of L to move the needle either way. But this exercise is not about predicting the future of L, but digging for ideas.

Of course, a less than $1 billion equity portfolio is too small a piece of L to move the needle either way. But this exercise is not about predicting the future of L, but digging for ideas.
Moving on...
Duquesne Family Office
Druckenmiller is known more for his macro trading, but it's fun to look through his equity portfolio. He files 13F's as a family office. The portfolio itself may not tell us much about his market view, though, cuz he may be short a bunch of futures and/or stocks against it.
But, it's still fun to look at. Druckenmiller is no fool so he is worth paying attention to. And unlike many 'macro' guys, he started out in equities so he knows stocks.
One thing you may remember is that he used to talk up Google; that they have great management that are doing all the right things and whatnot. It's interesting to see that GOOG is not even in the portfolio anymore, and FB is at the top of his list. And HAL is a new, large position. This is probably a call on crude (not necessarily on crude oil price, but on capex etc...).
Be careful with the "new" positions because sometimes a name or spelling changes and the script is not smart enough to know so, for example, POST shows up as a new position, but the same amount shows up at the bottom of the list as completely liquidated. I guess sorting by cusip number would prevent some of this. Project for the future...

Ratan Capital Management
Here is a fund manager I learned about a while back because I had CNBC on and this manager started talking about two of my favorite stocks at the time; POST and CHTR (still my largest positions). I stopped to watch the interview and was surprised at how it seemed like we were thinking the same exact thing. Anyway, ever since then I have been following the 13F's. Ratan owned a bunch of VRX but dumped it pretty quickly last year. She also dumped POST when they seemed to hit a speed bump but bought back in later (I don't claim to be better, but I didn't sell a single share and rode it all the way back up!).
Anyway, here is the most recent portfolio:

CHTR and POST remain the top two positions. I still like them both, and it seems Tiger Global likes CHTR too. Not that I like to own things too many hedge funds own; that's not a great thing either. STARZ is another Malone consolidation play. Coca Cola European Partners looks like an interesting new position. I am not a big fan of sodas, but this is a corporate change play so may be more interesting than KO (which, to me, is the ultimate corporate unchange play). I will have to take a close look at this one.
Pabrai
Here's a name that is widely followed in the value investing community. Monish Pabrai files as Dalal Street, LLC, and he is heavily into autos. It's kind of astounding that he has more than half of his portfolio in the auto industry. Focus and concentration is good, but Greenblatt's book is careful to say that the names should be in different industries or else you may not get the diversification effect you need from a small number of names.
Here is Pabrai's portfolio:

Seritage Growth Properties is the real estate spin-off from Sears and Buffett bought some for his personal account. It's always worth a look when Buffett puts something in his PA.
It's interesting to see GOOG there at 16%. I like GOOG but it's not a name I would have expected to see in the Dhandho investor's portfolio.
He dumped WL Ross Holdings, I suppose, after the merger. Ross fans were hoping for a distressed play but instead got a non-distressed chemical platform play.

Tiger Global
And here is Tiger Global's portfolio. Tiger cubs are really known for digging deep and really understanding the businesses they invest in. That's why I like to keep track of what they do. There are many others too but I like to watch Tiger Global because of their focus on tech (even though I don't do too much in tech).
There are other funds with great performance, like Point72 (the old SAC), but since they seem to trade short term, I don't know what the relevance of the 13F's would be. For example, if something showed up as a top holding because they thought a company might beat the EPS estimate in a couple of weeks, that would not really interest me. I am more interested in things that people want to own for many years. That's why I don't really care what quant funds own either (Medallion etc.).
Anyway, back to Tiger Global.
It seems like they increased their position in CHTR, so that's very interesting to me as I still like CHTR. Of course, it's no good when too many hedge funds get on board as it just sets up a big correction at some point down the line.
But seeing Tiger Global add at these prices is encouraging. I've owned this name for a long time (since around $100/share, I think).

Bulldog Investors
Here's a name that we looked at a while ago. It looks like Goldstein is branching out into non-closed end funds. Their top holding now, Stewart Information Services (STC) is interesting as Starboard recently took a large stake. It's worth a closer look. Things are bound to change with multiple activists on board.
There seems to be a lot of drama around Hill International too.
SPE hasn't been doing too well in recent years, but I like the way they think. I wasn't always a big fan of their portfolio (SPACs etc...), but they can be a source of some off-beat ideas. Despite the not-so-inspiring performance lately, I don't think they are a bad investment either. I know that sounds funny, but when you like how people think, you sort of want to support them even in bad times. Things should eventually go their way if they hold to their principles etc.
Anyway, we have seen that it's been a tough environment for most active managers including hedge funds, so we'll see what happens.

Horizon Kinetics
Here's another smaller name that we've looked at; FRMO. These guys, too, are people I follow and really like how they think. But the performance of their funds haven't been too great lately, but then again, this is true for the whole industry.
One of their big strategies is to focus on owner-operator type businesses which we like too (the Outsider-type companies).
So regardless of their performance, it's still interesting to dig into their portfolio to see what's in there; see if there is anything we should be looking more closely at.
They run some other strategies too so many of the names might not fit the category. I assume the largest positions fit the theme, though.
The list was way too long so I cut off positions less than 0.1% weight.

Anyway, wow, that was long. I won't always be making posts with these long lists. Some people love lists, others hate them. I guess if you don't like it, you can just scroll through the lists. I tend to like browsing lists as you never know what pops into view that might grab you.
In the future, I'll probably only posts lists when there is something interesting to point out. Otherwise we can just grab interesting names from the lists and just look at them.
