Is Bill Hwang Just the Biggest YOLOer

I’m fascinated by these articles and Bill Hwangs trading strategy. This guy was basically fulfilling every WSB readers dreams. Trading Billions of dollars in leveraged equities in his PA. He has so much money - which came from other shady shit btw that he gets serviced as an institutional client. And now CS and Nomura hit with gigantic losses. It’s pretty wild.
