I don’t post philosophy stuff as much as I used to, but I like a lot of the stuff this account puts out / find it provocative, even if I don’t agree 100% with all of it.

If you are a young analysts please fade this view. So many people seem to be referring to a class of SM funds that made a successful factor bet that unwound in 2022. There remains demand for strategies that aren’t long QQQ short IWM charging 2/20 with aggressive gates.

Hills I will die on:
1) For most single manager talent, pods aren’t legit competition because the game is totally different
2) That the economics of leaving a good job to start your own fund are so unappealing sends a strong signal that makes it easier to raise money
This was fun to do on a whim and hope it’s helpful to folks . TL;DR - 1) a bit on my journey as an analyst and all my failures 2) what is was like finally landing at a good spot that did well 3) starting my own fund (more marketing strategy). Enjoy!

Podcast dropping tomorrow, tried to articulate some of the things I’d wish people had told me 10-20yrs ago. Includes early career challenges, being #2 at a successful firm that scaled, and some musings about launching a new investment biz. Thanks @maxwiethe
There are so many people on this platform creating and sharing great content.
I am starting a thread to highlight those who are doing great work in equity research and investing. Will keep adding to it over time.

This is why Brett has my favorite account on twitter, Great brutally honest assessment about what HF life was like for him, with advice. While this doesn’t resonate with me personally (this job makes my family life better), I think it’s true for the vast majority of people.
