As an activist, Ackman tries to increase pressure on the management of a company in order to implement own visions of the company’s future. Nearly half of his positions have voting rights over 10 percent.
His main investment focus is on defensive stocks from the consumer and industrial sector. Around 70 percent of his exposure is related to these two sectors.
Below is a small list of Bill Ackman’s latest Portfolio transactions. He is a lazy guy. Last quarter, he bought only one stock and he needed more than a year to complete his latest 20 transactions.
From his 20 latest transactions are 12 unique positions of which 10 pay dividends. Dividend payments are not in focus of Ackman’s investment strategy. Only one company yields above the 3 percent mark.

The ex dividend date is the final date on which the new stock buyer couldn’t receive the next dividend. If you like to receive the dividend, you need to buy the stock before the ex dividend date. I made a little screen of the best yielding stocks with a higher capitalization that have their ex date on the next trading day.
A full list of all stocks with payment dates can be found here: Ex-Dividend Stocks May 07, 2013. In total, 18 stocks and preferred shares go ex dividend - of which 5 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 2.80%.
