One of our New Year's Resolutions is to stop making fun of Steve Cohen. Though previous gentle ribbings have obviously been public demonstrations of love as expressed by a deeply cynical individual scared to tell the big guy how she really feels, apparently they haven't penetrated certain fleece wearers up at 72 Cummings Point Road. Since it pains us to know we're not getting through, and because the keys to the Zamboni machine are all we want in life, a new angle of attack is necessary. A kiss and make-up sheet cake and handwritten note seem like good jumping off points, but we'll iron out the details later (speak up if you can facilitate this goal). Now that you know where we're coming from, it should be understood that the presentation of the following data is meant to be not a criticism but a congratulations for a (relatively) kick-ass job well done.
Through mid December:
- SAC Multi-Strategy: -12.8% YTD
- SAC Capital International: -18.7% YTD

I know this says a lot about my sad, lonely life, but it feels so good to have Levs posting beyond the opening/closing bell. A ray of sunshine has peaked through this office window.

Simons is down about the same (-19% in RIEF; no one but staff allowed in Medallion so to me, that doesn't count), so good for SAC.

Doubt Steve can give you a vigorous ride on the Zamboni machine. Better check the after hours action in the bars frequented by NYSE floor traders.

Pretty clear SAC is not a Ponzi scheme

@ 5
The guys @ Pappoos have zambonis?

@7 Hope you don't drink the water. I hear there is a lot of pharma treatments that go on in that office that have likely made their way into water supply.

Bess will be the new bloody head!

Damn Karen Tso is hot...

@ 11. I certainly hope not... ;-p
Posted by guest , Dec 30, 2008 4:01PM
@11: I certainly hope he has higher standards than that...
Posted by guest , Dec 30, 2008 4:05PM
@20- but maybe he likes the hot bod/hideous face combo?

@18, In my experience with her, it is best to handle business from behind and bury her face in the pillow. Just a suggestion...
Posted by guest , Dec 30, 2008 4:23PM
@19- speaking from experience, or just that'd be your course of action? if experience, how is she? i would've thought horrid.
Posted by guest , Dec 31, 2008 11:44AM
@ 20... Pretty decent. Not the best but not the worst. I used the old "light switch" trick... works most every time. A friend of mine that worked there suggested that I "draw a map of Hawaii on her face" but I didn't want to have to look at her long enough. She's not that ugly, but God certainly does have a sense of humor.

is that Glenn?

@22- who, the dude who suggested hawaii?
