Top Pick Of: David Einhorn — Greenlight Capital

Green Brick Partners (NYSE:GRBK) is the biggest holding of billionaire David Einhorn. For investors looking for exposure outside of AI, it is worth a look. The company builds and sells single-family homes across the U.S.

The stock is up about 15% so far this year. It got a further lift recently after U.S. lawmakers advanced a revised housing bill that restricts institutional investors from buying single-family homes. That is seen as a positive for traditional homebuilders because it reduces competition for available inventory and keeps more homes accessible to individual buyers, the core customer base for companies like Green Brick.

What sets the company apart is its vertically integrated model. Most homebuilders rely on outside suppliers and third-party developers. Green Brick handles the entire process in-house, from land acquisition through construction to final sale. That gives it more control over costs and margins at every stage.

The numbers reflect it. On a trailing twelve-month basis, gross margin stands at 31.84%. Revenue has more than doubled over the past five years.

Secular trends are also in its favor. The U.S. faces an estimated housing shortage of around 4 million homes. Entry-level demand remains structurally strong, driven by affordability constraints and long-term demographic needs.
