Bayliss, Shivansh Tiwary (Reuters) -Billionaire investor Bill Ackman said on Monday that he raised his stake in real estate company Howard Hughes, realizing a long-held dream of creating a diversified holding company modeled after legendary investor Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway.

Bill Ackman has invested $900 million to raise his stake in Howard Hughes Holdings from 37.6% to 46.9%, signaling plans to transform the real estate company into a diversified holding firm. This move aligns with his long-term vision of creating a Berkshire Hathaway-style investment conglomerate.

Pershing Square is infusing the cash into the master-planned community developer to expand its business into investments in other public and private firms.
