Philip Green’s Topshop rescue deal still stands a chance | Nils Pratley
Intu may just say no to Arcadia’s CVA rent cuts but other waverers may fall into lineWe wait to see if, when push comes to shove, the holdout landlords really will vote against Arcadia’s demand for rent cuts for a second time. Intu is determined to say no to Sir Philip Green, but it is the biggest and thus has most to lose in terms of rental income. Waverers may conclude they’ve made their point that CVAs are not a slam dunk for struggling retailers and quietly fall into line. Green could still get his way.It would be the best outcome in terms of saving jobs, since Green may be serious about his threat to force the business, employing 18,000 people, into administration if landlords vote down … [Read More...]
Best hedge fund?
World’s best investor? Who ran the top performing hedge fund? When do past returns predict future performance? Defining “best” as highest risk adjusted alpha after deducting all style premia and beta factors, the greatest ever hedge fund manager is obvious.Skill is predictive, luck is not. It’s better to select jockeys, rather than horses, as I wish to avoid the vexatious volatility and devastating drawdowns of smart/dumb betas. Invest with great managers before they are famous. Hedge fund managers like George Soros, Warren Buffett and Jim Simons were avoided for decades despite outstanding performance. They are STILL avoided by most!Time in drawdowns is never recovered. Your money is too important to be risked on “averages”. I prefer strategies that deliver independently of market direction. Though … [Read More...]

Regulator asked by MPs to reveal details of contact with Neil Woodford
Concerns raised that FCA may have been asleep at wheel as fund manager slipped into crisisMPs have asked the City regulator to publish details of its contact with Neil Woodford and raised concerns that the Financial Conduct Authority may have been asleep at the wheel as the fund manager tumbled into crisis. The Treasury select committee wants the Financial Conduct Authority to “set out the detail of its supervisory contact” with the Woodford Equity Income Fund.

Arbitrage hedge fund
More dumb money is invested in the markets than ever before. So there are MORE opportunities for hard working, smart people to capture alpha from all that dumb money. Experts claim there is no such thing as arbitrage as it supposedly would be copied and eliminated! They are so wrong. If you have the expertise and resources there are many profitable arbitrages on Wall Street. Markets are becoming even LESS efficient.A common metaphor is that if a $100 bill is dropped in the street it would immediately be picked up therefore no arbitrage can persist. But what if YOU are the person that finds it? Someone will. What if you specialize in walking the streets 24/7/365 looking for drops? What if you spent some of your “high” … [Read More...]
