Updated from 9:40 a.m. EDT

Prince Al-Waleed, a member of the Saudi royal family, is a noted multibillion-dollar investor, in the same league as Warren Buffett, George Soros and T. Boone Pickens.

The prince got his investing start in the early 1990s with a large position in Citicorp, now Citigroup C. He's among the richest people in the world, and his investment vehicle, Kingdom Holding Company, is the largest foreign investor in the U.S.

One of the stocks that the prince owns is Eastman Kodak EK, which two weeks ago reported quarterly earnings. Revenue increased by 1% year over year, digital businesses grew by 10%, and the company reported a narrower first-quarter loss. The stock has a price-to-earnings ratio of 7, a P/E-to-growth (PEG) ratio of 5 and a yield of 2.9%.

Kodak stock is also owned by Bruce Sherman's Private Capital Management, a portfolio management company founded in 1986. Sherman also owns shares of CA CA, the information technology management software company, which has a PEG of 1.57, and casino operator MGM MirageMGM, which has a PEG of 1.5.

Another stock that the prince owns is Motorola MOT. The company just announced an expanded line of tools for its Motodev Studio development platform. Motorola also recently declared a dividend of 5 cents per share, giving it a yield of 2%. The stock has a P/E of 23 and a PEG of 22.92.
