1. Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE:GRBK)

Greenlight Capital’s Stake: $593 Million

Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE:GRBK) has been a long-term holding for Greenlight Capital. The firm first appeared in the 13F portfolio of the fund in the fourth quarter of 2014. This position comprised 15.6 million shares. By the second quarter of 2015, the fund had increased this holding to more than 24 million shares. A period of stability followed during which the fund did not make major changes to this stake. In the first quarter of 2021, however, the fund trimmed this holding by nearly 30%. By the third quarter of 2024, this position had been further reduced to just under 10 million shares. Filings for the fourth quarter of 2025 show that the fund owned 9.5 million shares in the firm.

Hedge fund interest in Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE:GRBK) is driven by the reputation of the firm as a best-in-class homebuilder with a dominant position in high-growth markets. The firm has concentrated exposure to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, which remains one of the most resilient housing markets in the US. Unlike builders that buy finished lots from developers, Green Brick self-develops the majority of its land. This allows the company to capture developer margins on top of builder margins, a structural advantage over peers. The company’s history of aggressive share repurchases—reducing outstanding shares by nearly 15% since 2021—is a capital allocation win that keeps institutional sentiment high.
