Value Options Letter — Free Research

What the great value investorsactually bought last quarter.

We read the latest 13F filings of 38 of the most respected value investors — Buffett, Klarman, Ackman, Tepper, Loeb, Marks, and more — and distilled every new buy, add, trim, and exit into one digest. Positions as of 2026-03-31.

Value Options Letter is a research publication, not an investment adviser. This digest summarizes publicly filed 13F-HR reports. 13F data is long-only, US-listed, and reported roughly 45 days after quarter-end; it does not show short positions, options exposure, or non-US holdings. It is a research starting point, not a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
