Himalaya Capital

Abdiel Capital

Coatue

Lone Pine Capital

Matrix Capital

Maverick Capital

Tiger Global

Viking

baupost

SRS Investment Management

Skye Global

Altimeter Capital

Cantillon

Appaloosa (mostly debt but some equity)

D1 Capital (shorter term, rip?)

would really appreciate feedback on any major funds I've omitted or if any of the funds above definitely do not belong on this list

Thank you!
