Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper’s real estate company has promised to pay more than $82 million to creditors over an abandoned practice facility project in Rock Hill under a new plan proposed Thursday. The development of the Panthers’ state-of-the-art $800 million practice facility — which would have served as the team's new headquarters — fell apart after highly-publicized disputes between Tepper and the City of Rock Hill and York County.

The Denver Broncos' new ownership group is the league's most diverse, with four of the six members either female or minorities.

The record $4.65 billion sale of the Denver Broncos to Walmart heir Rob Walton and his daughter and son-in-law has been unanimously approved by NFL owners.

The Carolina Panthers now have two of the top three overall picks from the 2018 draft class on their roster, and both happen to be quarterbacks.

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Tuesday discussed a recent conversation he had with legendary hedge-fund manager David Tepper.

Stocks looked to bounce back this morning after Monday's brutal 4% drop back into bear territory.

The Carolina Panthers' proposed $800 million practice facility project in Rock Hill, South Carolina, is officially dead after team owner David Tepper’s real estate company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in Delaware on Wednesday night. Tepper, who made billions in hedge funds, is the NFL’s wealthiest owner. The filing will not affect the NFL’s Panthers or Major League Soccer’s Charlotte FC in any way.

The major averages are trying to recover after three days of heaving selling.

"What he really is focused on, if we get down to [S&P 500] 3,600 to 3,500, he's not going to be a trader," David Tepper told Jim Cramer on Tuesday.

The stock market is coming off a wild week of trading.

Wednesday was the first time Panthers owner David Tepper spoke to the media since Dec. 2020. Since then, the Panthers ended the construction of their Rock Hill headquarters.

Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper has paused construction on the team's $800 million practice facility in Rock Hill, South Carolina due to concerns over a lack of funding from the city needed for the project’s infrastructure. Tepper has already invested $170 million in the project, according to a statement from a spokesman for Tepper Sports and Entertainment on Monday. “Our partners have been unable to contribute the agreed upon investment to fund the construction of the public infrastructure,” the statement read.

The Denver Broncos are officially on the market.

Hedge fund manager David Tepper made the remarks Friday on CNBC's "Halftime Report." Tepper is the founder of Appaloosa Management, whose comments have been known to move markets. Back in February 2020 before the S&P 500 tumbled into a bear market, he warned that the virus could be a game changer for markets and "certainly ruined the environment" for stocks. In March this year, Tepper turned bullish on the market, saying it's very difficult to be bearish on stocks. The S&P 500 enjoyed seven positive months in a row from February to August, The benchmark is up more than 20%, hitting a fresh all-time high Friday.

“I don’t have all the answers. This is something that’s going to require everyone’s effort now as far as taking care of our veterans.”

Hedge fund legend David Tepper thinks the Federal Reserve did a good job in showing policymakers are not asleep at the wheel.

U.S. stocks rose on Tuesday after a decline in bond yields caused investors to rotate back into the beaten-up technology sector. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 3.69% to 13,073.82 for its best day since November. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed the day near its session low, rising just 30.30 points, or 0.1%, to 31,832.74. At its session high, the blue-chip benchmark jumped more than 300 points to touch an intraday record high. Many popular technology stocks have fallen double digits over the past month amid rate fears.

The major market risk has been removed, Tepper said, adding that rates should be more stable in the short term. Bond yields have jumped sharply over the past few weeks amid higher inflation expectations, which put pressure on risk assets. The swift advance in yields hit tech stocks particularly hard as these companies have relied on easy borrowing for superior growth. "That takes a major risk off the table, and it's very difficult to be bearish," Tepper told Kernen. Another bullish catalyst for stocks in the near term is the coronavirus fiscal stimulus package that was just approved by the Senate, Tepper said.

The blue-chip benchmark gained 306.14 points, or 1%, to 31,802.44 led by Disney. At its session high, the 30-stock average jumped 650 points to hit an intraday record high. The Nasdaq Composite slid 2.4% in volatile trading to 12,609.16 as Apple dropped 4.2% and Tesla fell 5.8%. The benchmark 10-year yield has risen sharply in recent weeks in anticipation of more stimulus on top of a booming economic recovery. For March, the Dow Industrials, leveraged more to the reopening, is up 2.8%, while the Nasdaq Composite is off by 4.4%.

Old scars," Tepper told CNBC's Joe Kernen on "Squawk Box." The influence of retail investors — most apparent in GameStop — has captivated the Street in recent days, and speaks to a new class of traders who grew up amid the pandemic. Retail investors are promoting their activity on the WallStreetBets Reddit board, which has more than 3 million members. Earlier in January, Tepper told CNBC's Jim Cramer that he had a more positive view on the market because of the Covid vaccine. On Feb. 1, shortly before stocks began to tank as the pandemic forced the world into lockdown, Tepper told Cramer he had become cautious on the market due to the virus.

(AP Photo/Chuck Burton, File)CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Marty Hurney is out again as Carolina's general manager. The Panthers are the fifth team this season to fire their general manager, joining the Lions, Jaguars, Texans and Falcons. He was the general manager from 2002-12 before being fired by former owner Jerry Richardson.

Certainly you are seeing pockets of that now in the stock market. Before Wednesday's sell-off, it was "maybe the second-most overvalued stock market I've ever seen," Tepper said on CNBC's " Halftime Report ." Billionaire hedge fund investor David Tepper told CNBC on Wednesday the stock market is one of the most overpriced he's ever seen, only behind 1999. Tepper also called some of the popular tech names including Amazon "fully valued." ...They are not rich but they may be fully valued."

Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper told CNBC on Wednesday that he believes the NFL could play games this season with "some fans" in attendance. Tepper said he feels that if people are comfortable flying on an airplane right now, it would be "practical" to devise a plan for some fans to attend NFL games in the fall. "You won't be having full stadiums, but that doesn't mean you can't have some fans in the stadium either," he said. The NFL released its 2020 regular-season schedule last week, the latest indication the league that intends to play football this fall. MLB owners recently approved a plan to play a modified season in which games would begin in early July without fans.

While still in a bear market, the Dow as of Tuesday's close gained about 24% since its coronavirus-driven March 23 low. "There's a curious disconnect between when you speak to the companies, most of which are closed, and what's going on in the market," Cramer said. Cramer has often referenced interviewing Tepper in early February as a key moment in his understanding of the coronavirus. The "Mad Money" host also expressed caution Tuesday about the market's bounce, contending he thought Wall Street was more optimistic about a return to something resembling normal life than most Americans. "There is a happy days are here again Wall Street impression versus what I hear ... people saying, 'Can I get a mask?

Renaissance Technologies's James Simons, Citadel's Ken Griffin, Points72's Steven Cohen and Appaloosa Management's David Tepper were among the biggest hedge fund earners in 2019 with each man raking in over $1 billion, according to Institutional Investor's Rich List. 1 on the list was Christopher Hohn of TCI Fund Management, who earned in $1.8 billion last year, according to Institutional Investor. As a result of a banner year, the 25 highest-earning hedge fund managers made a combined $20.2 billion in 2019, the most since 2013. It's likely that a significant portion of the managers' 2019 income was erased throughout the market collapse. For example, Bridgewater's Dalio told CNBC last week that his hedge fund was down 10% to 20%.

Billionaire hedge fund manager David Tepper said Monday that President Donald Trump must order U.S. industrial companies like General Motors to start mass producing ventilators if he wants to get the economy on a path to restarting again. Tepper said he would like to be told by General Motors CEO Mary Barra when the ventilators are coming off of the factory lines. "I'd like to hear Mary Barra and GM tell me when the ventilators are coming off the line," said Tepper. Tepper said if he were president he would be using the war powers act to get some of this equipment made. Tepper also said he is "nibbling" at some stocks, particularly in the tech sector, as the broader market tumbles.

Billionaire investor David Tepper said he is cautiously buying some stocks, particularly in the tech sector, as the broader market tumbles amid the coronavirus outbreak. "I'm nibbling right now, for what it's worth," Tepper, founder of Appaloosa Management, told CNBC's Scott Wapner on "Halftime Report." Tepper also said he's buying some health-care stocks. To be sure, Tepper added that the broader market could fall another 10% to 15% as investors grapple with the coronavirus pandemic and its economic blow. More than 350,000 coronavirus cases have been confirmed worldwide, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

Dow to bounce after worst day since 'Black Monday'Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, March 12, 2020. The Dow Jones Industrial Average on Thursday lost over 2,350 points or nearly 10% pushing further into a bear market. The S&P 500 tanked 9.5%, joining the Dow in a bear market and officially ending the longest bull market ever. President Donald Trump won't be tested for coronavirus after meeting with a Brazilian official who tested positive over the weekend. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's wife, Sophie Gregoire, has tested positive.

David Tepper's hedge fund, Appaloosa, took a minority stake in satellite company Intelsat on Tuesday and sent a letter to its board, urging the company to renegotiate terms of its 5G deal with the Federal Communications Commission. "We want a smart agreement for all parties and this isn't smart for anybody," Tepper told CNBC's Scott Wapner. The company's most valuable asset is its ownership of spectrum, which the FCC wants to re-appropriate to use for 5G networks. Tepper declared the terms of the FCC's proposal as "manifestly unfair to Intelsat" and told the company it should not accept a deal until it renegotiates. Otherwise, Intelsat's board "has no choice but to resort to bankruptcy and litigation in order to protect Intelsat's valuable license rights from an illegal modification," Tepper added.

Billionaire hedge fund manager David Tepper, who was bullish on the market just a few weeks ago, said the coronavirus outbreak has changed the environment around stocks. Tepper, in an interview with Jim Cramer for TheStreet, said investors should be cautious until more is known about the virus. Tepper had told CNBC two weeks ago that he thought the market would keep climbing, saying "I love riding a horse that's running." Now, the coronavirus has "certainly ruined the environment" for stocks that was in place a few weeks ago, Tepper told Cramer. When asked by Cramer if long-term investors should stay in the market, Tepper indicated they should make sure they are not taking extra risks here.

He is far from the only one who sees no reason the relentless bull market has to end. The percentage of investors who indicated a belief that the business cycle is currently in an expansion went up to 34%, from 20% in Q4 2019. The E-Trade survey was conducted between Jan. 2 and Jan. 10 among an online U.S. sample of 909 self-directed active investors. The E-Trade survey does find investors pursuing a relative valuation strategy when it comes to international equities, which were out of favor last year. Over the past 12 months, the U.S. stock market has roughly doubled the rest of the world's stock market return.

David Tepper, billionaire founder of Appaloosa Management, said Friday he still likes this bull market, which is the longest on record. "I love riding a horse that's running," Tepper told CNBC's Joe Kernen in an exclusive email. The current bull market started in March 2009. However, there are signs the bull market may be a bit long in the tooth. Tepper told Kernen that "at some point, the market will get to a level that I will slow down that horse and eventually get off."

Hedge fund manager Stanley Druckenmiller said Friday he agrees with fellow billionaire investor David Tepper's optimism on the market and said he, too, is still "riding the horse." "I revealed a very bullish posture intermediate term since October when [Fed Chairman Jerome] Powell guaranteed he would not rescind the insurance cuts," Druckenmiller said in an email to CNBC's Joe Kernen. "So I am still 'riding the horse' and bullish immediate term," echoing a phrase used by Tepper in an earlier email to Kernan. Druckenmiller's comments come as U.S. equities prolong the longest bull market in U.S. history that began in March 2009. His performance while running Duquense Capital, his now-shuttered hedge fund, clocked in with an average of 30% annually to investors.

Usually, NFL head coaching deals don't exceed five or six years, but Gruden changed that with this agreement. "It raised the bar," former NFL head coach Tony Dungy told CNBC in an interview. In the NFL, coaching contracts are not included in a team's salary cap, so those numbers don't typically get released. Head coach Matt LaFleur of the Green Bay Packers is congratulated by head coach Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks after their 28-23 win in the NFC Divisional Playoff game at Lambeau Field on January 12, 2020 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Tepper also signed Rhule for seven years when owners typically don't commit to first-year head NFL coaches for more than four years.

On "Squawk Box" on Sept. 24, 2010, Tepper took the old adage, "Don't fight the Fed" to the next level. Tepper's fund made $7.5 billion in 2009 on a return of 132%, made mostly by betting on a resurgence in financials. In May, Tepper said he's planning to return Appaloosa's capital to investors, converting it to a family office. Tepper's introduction of the word "taper" into Wall Street parlance and the market drop that followed the Fed's December 2013 tapering announcement was dubbed the "taper tantrum." It wouldn't be until December 2015 that Wall Street would see the Fed's first rate hike since 2006.

"We've got great confidence that it'll be a great city," Garber said. Tepper's group, which includes Panthers team president Tom Glick, did not receive the final approval they need to ensure "MLS-ready" improvements to the stadium, Garber said. MLS doesn't expect to draw as many fans consistently to the stadium and doesn't want extra seats showing during broadcasts. Though the MLS approved final negotiations with Tepper's group, Garber said the league would keep an open dialogue with Las Vegas and Phoenix officials, who were also in the running to receive a franchise. Garber said the goal is to "finalize something by the end of the year," with Tepper's group, but cautioned it could be delayed well into 2020.

CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA - DECEMBER 01: Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper looks on before their game against the Washington Redskins at Bank of America Stadium on December 01, 2019 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Carolina Panthers owner and hedge-fund manager David Tepper is pushing for a Major League Soccer expansion team in Charlotte and is prepared to pay up to seal the deal, according to a report from Charlotte Business Journal. CBJ reported that the MLS could make a decision on the league's next expansion team by the end of 2019. Charlotte already has quite the roster of professional sports teams, making it an attractive choice for an MLS expansion club. Sacramento became the most recent city awarded an MLS expansion club in October.

12 of the Brooklyn Nets shoots against Fred VanVleet No. 23 of the Toronto Raptors at Barclays Center on April 3, 2019 in Brooklyn, New York. Joseph Tsai, the billionaire co-founder of e-commerce giant Alibaba, is in talks to buy the remaining 51% of the Brooklyn Nets basketball team from Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov, according to The New York Post. Tilman Fertitta, owner of restaurant chain Landry's, also paid $2.2 billion to purchase the NBA's Houston Rockets in 2017. Stuart Bryan, a spokeswoman for BSE Global, which manages and controls the Brooklyn Nets, declined to comment.
