Best album of all time! (I run a small credit fund, it's rare to find myself agreeing with someone from equity-land but on this one you're right on the money)
Gosh, John, I am Russian (which is to say, different and deep enough culture), young, and this parrot thing already looks a little bit worn out. Brilliant indeed but worn out. Worn out, but indeed brilliant.
As a shameless plug for abovementioned culture, have you tried Leonid Gaidai's comedies?
If I recall, I actually went out to buy this album (among other Bowie albums) when I was 13! on cassette! Have been throwing a music link or two into my blog/twitter recently...to be met with stunning silence. So good on ya!
Thanks for the blog too, a lot of v interesting posts to think about, and really helps to think about possible shorts (really not a lot of useful commentary/advice out there on the subject, in my opinion).
John, I have been reading Bronte's monthly letters. The one question I have is, when you're shorting at what point do you worry your short has become too crowded?

ReplyDeleteFor and equity guy I am kind of respectful of credit guys. They at least think of the downside more than us equity guys and that is constructive.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes - it is a great album.

Warning SleepingMan!
ReplyDeleteYou have been spotted!
Warning John!
"Running a small credit fund" might understate SleepingMan's credentials.
Afterthought: Thanks for the musical interlude.
Good stuff! Thanks for once again sharing your discernment.
ReplyDeleteJohn, Feel free to write extensively about those positions after you've closed them out.

ReplyDeleteColin - you have nailed one of our biggest problems.
