We reached out to a Paulson spokesperson for comment.

Charter's stock was last trading down $1.64, or down 0.88%, at $184.84 on Monday.

According to Paulson's most recently available 13F filing, Paulson & Co. did not have a position in Charter Communications. The fund is expected to report its third quarter 13F filing sometime today.

Greenberg's comments suggest that Charter may be among the new investments unveiled in the funds filing.
