David Einhorn, president of Greenlight Capital speaks at the Sohn Investment Conference in New York

Last week, famed investor David Einhorn of hedge fund Greenlight Capital gave a presentation at the exclusive Robin Hood Investors Conference (it supports the charitable foundation of the same name, check that out here).
