Here’s a shocker: Icahn Enterprises L.P., Carl Icahn’s main investment vehicle, said second quarter net income plunged to $54 million from $257 million in the comparable period in 2012. What’s more, it reported a $228 million net loss from investments in the second quarter, compared with a $299 million net gain the prior year. However, for the first six months, net gains from investment income were virtually in line with the prior year period. Icahn is known to have huge paper gains in Herbalife and Netflix, to name two high-profile holdings. The legendary money manager no longer has to please outside investors, having returned outside capital in 2011, though his wife may have harsh words for him. "She looks over the numbers and goes, 'How come it went down today?'" Icahn joked at last month’s亚博赞助欧冠/ CNBC提供阿尔法会议。
