Greenlight Capital made the following comment about Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE:GRBK) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:

“Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE:GRBK) shares advanced from $19.57 to $21.38. The company announced second quarter earnings of $2.08 per share, which blew away consensus estimates of $1.24 per share. Also, GRBK was added to the S&P SmallCap 600 index during the quarter. We believe that the share price gain was dampened by a substantial slowdown in housing demand, which is now widely evident. Mortgage rates have exploded higher and have created affordability issues. To mitigate our exposure, we hedged almost half of our position with a basket of housing-sensitive equities. The hedge was also a material positive contributor to our performance in the quarter. GRBK shares have outperformed peers, as we believe the market is correctly assessing its superior competitive position.”
