New Boutique Bank in VA? Inkstone Capital?

anybody heard of inkstone capital? I hear this guy manages millions, or that's what he tells all the underage tail.

www.inkstonecapital.com

i might apply, it's even got research, PE, and pwm divisions...no CEO though just a managing director. any thoughts?

 

Um...quite skeptical. Seems to me like a guy, a website, and a whole lot of nothing. If you can't smell the fish here, I have some oceanfront property in Arizona to sell you.

i interviewed with this firm for an SA position... got it past the first round but got smoked in the second round. the guy is a total stud. he a wharton grad and is one of founding members of DLJ. he opted to go onto the buyside. by day he manages multimillion dollar portfolios (mainly p/e but some special situation/distressed), and by night he is batman.

Should've waited and checked out the site, here are few nuggets of goodness:

  1. Check out the blog, there's a sweet entry called "Speculating on speculation"

  2. His July stock pick is Barack Obama

  3. "Please contact us at [email protected] for a detailed report of the portfolio in exel or pdf format. Thank you." You'd figure he'd at least spell Excel properly

  4. "We hope people will see Inkstone Capital as a firm with the knowledge and niche to succeed in the global environment." I'm pretty sure the word niche is not being used properly in this sentence.

  5. "Private Equity: We are more of venture capital" Which one is it?

This is priceless. Someone should e-mail and say they want to sell their $10MM Estonian wind farm and what the comps for that are. This kid's head will explode.

 

From the About Us section:

"We believe the beauty of life is about possibilities, and so we take chances to pursue these possibilities in life."

WOW

 

I think it's listed as Tian Zeng on facebook - He's at UVA like untitled. Site is amazing, I can't believe capitaliq can't pull it up in a company search, someone should really get on that.

Who talks like that? "All the underage tail"? And what's up with your username? Are you a 16-year old wigger? You're a bigger tool than the guy at "inkstone."
