Uber Technologies (NYSE: UBER) is the world's largest ride-sharing company and also offers food delivery and freight transport services.

The alternative asset manager invests in renewable energy, real estate, infrastructure, and business and industrial services.

Ackman has been involved with Howard Hughes (NYSE: HHH) since its formation in 2010 after a spin-off and now owns a 46.9% stake in the real estate developer. Ackman now wants to convert Howard Hughes into a diversified holding company akin to Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway.

Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG), known for its burritos and tacos, owns over 3,800 restaurants. Chipotle is now expanding globally and rolling out new technologies. Although Brian Niccol, who was monumental in Chipotle's growth, quit as the CEO in 2024, Ackman believes the present management under new CEO Scott Boatwright will continue to deliver.
