I’ve always found it strange that some people think it’s wrong to identify fundamental problems before they cause harm. If a doctor identifies cancer while it’s at an early stage, people don’t laugh at him and say “you’re early, and early is the same as being wrong.” Instead, the doctor is praised. Identifying the existence of a cancer and predicting the time that the cancer will kill the patient are two completely different things.ReplyShare

High-Beta Tech Covering

I covered one half of my high-beta high tech short basket on the whoosh lower in the Nasdaq.

Some of the decline have been dramatic (e.g ($CRWV) -10%; ($SNDK) (-$200) etc.

I would reshort on strength.

Positions: Short high-tech basket; VS Short SNDK VS CRWV VS

 

New Private Equity Positions

I neglected to mention that I took starter long positions in private equity late yesterday:

* KKR ($KKR) $91.85

* BX ($BX) $117.15

* APO ($APO) $116.96

I plan to reshort banks/brokers as a pair trade with this long.

Positions: Long KKR VS BX VS APO VS
