Info on Himalaya Capital?

Anyone know stuff on Himalaya Capital? The founder, Li Lu, is a close friend with Charlie Munger and the firm seems to be very secretive. Almost all their employees on LinkedIn say they work at a “Value Investment Firm”. Tons of UCLA Anderson and Columbia Business School aum and only Asian Americans lol. They recently moved to LA to Seattle and have like $20bln AUM or something crazy.

Anyone know stuff on Himalaya Capital? The founder, Li Lu, is a close friend with Charlie Munger and the firm seems to be very secretive. Almost all their employees on LinkedIn say they work at a "Value Investment Firm". Tons of UCLA Anderson and Columbia Business School aum and only Asian Americans lol.

I don't know a ton about the firm itself but if you do a bit of research into who Li Lu is -  there is a very good reason why people of Chinese descent wouldn't make it super easy to connect themselves to his firm.
