If you're a financial advisor who wants to raise a few hundred million in AUM...here's an idea: Next week head down to @commonspaceLA and sponsor happy hour on @SpaceX IPO day. (Brewery is right next door). Free beers for everyone and pass out business cards. (I'd join you, but IPO day is also World Cup at Sofi)


Were You There During the Quant Quake? In August 2007, many quant long/short equity and stat arb strategies suffered sudden, correlated losses of 20-30% in days—while broader markets stayed calm. A liquidity crunch, not a macro shock. Remember Shakespeare's caution: "(w)hat's past is prologue." Lessons from 2007 still matter.See Kent Daniel’s CFA article "Anatomy of a Crisis" (includes the striking chart of standardized quant portfolio returns during the event): kentdaniel.net/papers/publish…
