Top 5 Stocks Billionaire George Soros Just Bought

4. Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:U)

Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:U) went public in the middle of September and Soros Fund was quick to add the gaming software company to its 13F portfolio, buying 300,000 shares which were worth $26.18 million at the end of Q3. That purchase has proven to be a great one, as Unity Software has had a tremendous debut as a public company, gaining over 67% in two months and pushing its market cap past the $31 billion mark.

Unity Software provides one of the two dominant platforms which video games are built on, the other being Epic’s Unreal Engine. And while Unreal Engine may be the more celebrated of the two, Unity actually powers more games. The engine also has a big lead in the augmented reality (AR) realm, powering 90% of the games on Microsoft’s AR headset HoloLens. While AR has yet to take off, it (and Unity) are responsible for one of the most popular games ever created in the form of Pokemon Go. In addition to gaming, Unity’s software platform is increasingly being used across a wide range of other industries, including engineering, film & animation, automotive, and advertising.
