Herbalife not Loeb top five

Hedgie Dan Loeb yesterday offered more evidence that he has exited his Herbalife position entirely.

The mogul’s monthly report to investors, a copy of which was obtained by The Post, showed that Herbalife was not a top five position or a top winner in February — as was the case in January.

Loeb recently boasted to his former pal Bill Ackman that he earned $50 million for investors on Herbalife, The Post reported exclusively last week.

The sizable profit on his $270 million Herbalife position indicates he has closed out the position — although Loeb has not confirmed that. He is not required to report such a move.

Loeb’s $11.6 billion Third Point gained 1.2 percent in February, for a 6 percent gain in 2013. Ackman’s Pershing Square was down 0.1 percent last month; it’s up 3.6 percent in 2013.

Ackman’s $1 billion Herbalife short is 9 percent of his $12 billion firm.
