Hedge Funds

Congratulations to the Whitney Museum of American Art on retaining a brooding, sullen Ken Griffin as a board member.

The least likable man in England would like everyone to know that his pal Crispin Odey is no George Soros.

OK, maybe a few other things went into it, but still.

Either that or it’s skipped a generation, because his daughter’s down $2.5 million on Manhattan real estate this half-decade.

Samuel Barnett is not sure what the feds mean about "a decade of fraud."

The Lord of Cluckingham Manor is offended you’d think him so base.

Throwing $1 million every year for a decade at Harvard, Stanford, Yale and Princeton, but giving only half that to Brown and Columbia? That's just solid asset management.

Or, you know, just enjoy being a billionaire under that dome he’s about to extract from North Carolina taxpayers.

Two-plus years and $5 billion later, it’s finally happening.

Feels like a fair swap.

Tower Research Capital's Mark Gorton will become chairman and let a newly-formed board handle things going forward, like reportedly laying of 50 engineers.

In fairness, Peter Nygard may be saving his best legal arguments to keep himself out of a Bahamian jail.

Leon Cooperman has concerns that a President Elizabeth Warren would close the stock market, or something.

Baupost Group is as hot as a California wildfire.

Former Citadel lawyer leaving her job at Coinbase for senior markets oversight gig at CFTC...no, really.

R.I.P., Arrowgrass Capital Partners.

Were you wondering why Och-Ziff Capital Management changed its name? Me either, but allow CEO Rob Shafir to allude to the reasons in broad strokes.
