SoftBank s Vision Fund, the investment vehicle behind Uber and WeWork, is riding high-flying technology stock, posting its biggest profit for years.
The fund, created by SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, reported a ¥844.1bn ($8bn) profit in its third quarter ended 31 December 2020 [PDF], surpassing record numbers set just a quarter earlier, and its best results since 2017.
The global ballooning of tech stock, driven by cheap money and pandemic restrictions, is to thank. In particular, IPOs have been a boon, including that of DoorDash, the Vision Fund-backed food delivery service which hit a $72bn valuation last December despite posting heavy losses.
