If their 13-F means anything they have 200 positions on around $750M and seem to be nothing more than a shitty S&P tracker. Biggest positions are KO and SPY. $11M in Tivo calls strikes me as hysterical. Maybe I'm missing something.

Any recent insights on these guys? A few recruiters have brought them up lately saying they’re looking to staff up after a “great” year.

I see them around at conferences frequently, they seem to have a good culture and good pay. Seems investment strategy is maybe similar to P72 as in medium/short term but more focused on best ideas. This is based my experience interviewing with them years ago and could be totally inaccurate.

My understanding is its former SAC/Point72 people, originally, who have built a similar short-term trading/sector specialist oriented business model. I believe they've done fairly well over time, but don't have many details.

Thanks for the info!

It has been around for a while. Curious to hear more about it. 

pass through expenses like other market neutral multi managers so should have ok comp economics. anecdotally sounds like they've done well past few years

good firm. 

bump - anyone have any updated info? they've been hiring
