WalletHub analyzed financial disclosures for 100 of the largest hedge funds.
The firm put together a list of their favorite stocks, including which moved up or down from previous quarters.
Each quarter, hedge funds must disclose their holdings of publicly traded companies.
WalletHub, a personal finance site, analyzed those disclosures for the top 100 hedge funds to see what stocks they were buying up - and which they were selling - from quarter to quarter.
These investors include Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway; Ray Dalio's Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund, and other well known funds like David Tepper's Appaloosa Management and Daniel Loeb's Third Point Capital.
"To construct the 'Most Popular Stocks' list, we looked at each of the over 400 funds' positions, added up the positions for the same stock and rank-ordered the stocks by their total holdings value," WalletHub said, adding that the report is based only on equities, not depository receipts, bonds, or any other public investments.
