Eric Mindich,* you've got competition! At least one Tiger Cub is doing Julian Roberston proud, relatively speaking. Viking Global is down a measly 6.5 percent for the third quarter, and up 0.1% YTD.

*I know Eton Park is not at Cub, I'm just talking about competition among hedge funds not taking it up the urethra, relatively speaking.

DB has been falling quickly in carney's absence
at a time when DB should be working hard to do their best, they are slacking and doing their worst
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 11:15AM
fuck carney. BLEP 4 life!
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 11:15AM
what the fuck are you talking about 6? db has been better than ever since carney left. technically difficulties aside this morning, db has improved immensely.

@ 6
Yes I agree, your post is quite shitty. Thank you for informing us in the first line. It gives the reader fair warning that what follows is utter shit.

@6 - Carney is that you?

Viking is a hedge fund - they don't have "associates". Go back to B school.

@6- how is posting an investor letter that hasn't been printed anywhere a shit post? answer: either you are Halvorsen or you are Carney.

@6
"shit post"
Stopped reading right there.

blodget and carney should really stop leaving comments on db. so not classy. but what do you expect of a white collar criminal and a hack writer?
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 11:20AM
"taking it up the urethra."
Reading that made me shiver.

@15
It's called "sounding". Google it, I dare you.

@6 i am a hedge fund manager, what is a shit post?
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 11:28AM
You guys are such jackasses. When carney was here, you praise him to the skies. Now that he's gone, you treat him like outcasts.

0.1% YTD? My bank account just outperformed them.

16 - 15 here, I am going home now, I'm too upset to face the day.
Whatever happened to the good ole days of eating a porterhouse off a hookers ass?

Bad hedge fund performance means fewer hedge funds. Lots of "collateral" damage in the meantime. How long is this going to take?
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 11:42AM
what about the chicago hedge funds? citadel? magnetar?
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 11:48AM
21 you are 100% spot on
When do the backlash of redemptions stop beating down these markets?
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 12:52PM
Victory!
Posted by guest , Oct 09, 2008 1:28PM
@21. not long. They're about to be get screwed between margin calls and redemptions.
