Peltz's Trian Reports Fewer Holdings; No PepsiCo, CBS Stakes

Activist investor Nelson Peltz's money management company reported that it held shares of significantly fewer companies in the quarter ended Dec. 31 and no longer reported stakes in PepsiCo Inc. (PEP) and CBS Corp. (CBS).

Peltz's Trian Fund Management LP no longer reported holding five of the 13 stocks it previously held, including an S&P 500 Spider ETF.

Peltz's company made the disclosures in a quarterly regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Many investors who manage more than $100 million are required to disclose most securities holdings within a month and a half of the end of a quarter. The filings give the public a relatively fresh look at the portfolios of well-known investors.

The fund also reported reduced holdings in Kraft Foods Inc. (KFT). The fund reported holdings of roughly 13.7 million shares, about a fifth less than the previous quarter. Trian, which was founded by Peltz, Peter May and Edward Garden, was one of several funds that pushed Kraft to focus on its snacks business by spinning off its North American grocery unit.

Trian reported holding more shares of Family Dollar Stores Inc. (FDO) than it had the previous quarter, raising its overall stake by nearly a third to nearly 10 million shares.
