Since earning $15 billion in 2007 on a bet that the U.S. housing market would crumble, Mr. Paulson has become one of the world's most closely watched investors. This year's performance cements his reputation. His Paulson's Advantage Plus Fund ended the year up 17 percent after rising 13 percent in December. Through August, the fund had been down 11 percent. His other funds fared equally well with the Advantage Fund gaining 9 percent in December to end 2010 up 11 percent, two investors in the fund said. The investors declined to be identified because they were not authorized to discuss the returns publicly. A spokesman for the fund declined to comment. Mr. Paulson's Recovery Fund rose 14 percent in December to end the year up 24 percent while the Credit fund climbed 6.8 percent to end up 20 percent. Only a few years ago, Mr. Paulson make a risky bet on gold by launching a fund dedicated to the metal — his Gold fund gained 35 percent this year. "This summer I began to think Paulson had lost his mojo, but he proved me dead wrong," said Brad Alford, chief investment officer at Alpha Capital Management. "After beating everyone three years in a row in the worse market in our lifetime in 2008, and now in the raging bull market of 2009 and 2010, I know he is in a league of his own." In 2007 the flagship fund gained 163.8 percent and in 2008, when the average hedge fund lost 19 percent, Mr. Paulson's portfolio climbed 37.9 percent. Mr. Paulson's exact positions in the last three months of 2010 will not be known until mid-February, but big positions in Hartford Financial Services, MGM Resorts and Boston Scientific posted strong gains late last year. Mr. Paulson, who oversees a hedge fund that has roughly $33 billion in assets and ranks among the world's five biggest, staged a late-year recovery when early bets that the housing market would recover paid off. |

The Goldman customer said he received a separate six-page financial statement containing information on the social networking firm. The document provides some of the most detailed financial information to come to light about Facebook, which Goldman recently valued at $50 billion in a separate, $450 million funding. The financial statements were not audited and offered little detail about how Facebook generates it revenue, said the source, who did not want to be identified because he had signed a non-disclosure agreement. Goldman customers seeking to buy shares in the privately held Facebook will invest money in a newly formed Delaware entity called FBDC Investors LP, according to the source. Corporate records show that FBDC Investors was incorporated in Delaware on Wednesday [Jan. 5]. Goldman customers have until Friday [Jan. 7] to commit to investing in the new entity and until next Tuesday [Jan. 11] to wire money to the Wall Street firm. Goldman, which is investing $450 million of its own capital in Facebook, is raising at least $1.5 billion from its wealthy customers through the limited-time offering. Investors are increasingly eager to buy shares of Facebook and other fast-growing Internet social networking companies on private exchanges. |
