Viking Global Investors is a $3 billion dollar NY based long-short equity fund that primarily invests in the U.S. and Europe and employs a ''bottom-up'' fundamental stock-picking strategy. It focuses on financials, telecommunications, media, technology, and consumer stocks. The fund's analysts meet with some 1,000 companies a year. ''Their core strength is that they're fantastic business analysts. They can really determine good companies from bad,'' says an investor.
Viking's principals learned their stock-picking skills as principals of Julian Robertson's Tiger Management Corp.
