BOSTON (Reuters) – Investor William Ackman updated clients on his portfolio on Wednesday saying his Pershing Square Capital Management exited its Starbucks Corp. (SBUX.O) position as future growth looks less robust but will stick with last year’s biggest winner, Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (CMG.N).

He also said in a presentation that he sees “substantial opportunity” for improvement in Agilent Technologies Inc’s (A.N) business performance.
