Oil States International, Inc. (OIS), Hess Corp. (HES), The Boeing Company (BA): Here’s What David Einhorn Has Been Buying and Selling

Information technology outsourcing and service provider Computer Sciences Corporation (NYSE:CSC) saw its shares dip recently, after delivering non-blowout quarterly results. Its future might be brighter than its present, though, as it shifts its focus toward more profitable software and service work. The company is under new management and has been turning itself around, with some seeing it as attractive now.

Finally, Greenlight’s biggest closed positions included Ensco and Xerox Corporation (NYSE:XRX). Xerox Corporation (NYSE:XRX) has been retooling itself, aiming for higher margins. It now gets about half its revenue from services instead of hardware, including some long-term government contracts. Xerox Corporation (NYSE:XRX) boosted its dividend by 35% earlier this year, signaling confidence from management.

We should never blindly copy any investor’s moves, no matter how talented the investor. But it can be useful to keep an eye on what smart folks are doing. 13-F forms can be great places to find intriguing candidates for our portfolios.
