Yes. Fundamental long/short equity involves learning about fundamental investing. Silly question

As for the insinuation that L/S equity is mostly monetizing mgmt access, this is much more so the case in your mammoth long onlies.
 

A lot of PE is monetizing relationships. A lot of VC is promotion/clout/greater-fool. L/S public equity is imo the purest and most meritocratic form of fundamental investing. Just because some people may seek an unfair advantage is irrelevant.

L/S equity is not more “trading not investing” than LT ‘PE approach to public markets’ is momentum/macro and not fundamental.

Cmon now
