MMHF perf YTD

I havn't seen figures about MMHF YTD performance in this forum or on BBG. 

Could you guys give me an idea? 

In order to start contributing, I know from internal sources that MLP is flat YTD. What about the others?

My TQQQ is up 116% YTD. I must be a genius right?

You rode the meme / AI hype wave. A lot of people did the same in 2021, which was the tail end of a decade or more of QE / easy money. A lot of morons (like you) thought they were geniuses then, and did so by taking inane amounts of risk.

(And by the way, I’m down all-time on my TQQQ)

Important to make sure we compare the right mix of strategies - Citadel Wellington vs. Citadel equities, etc. vs the equivalent strategies at MLP. If it is a like for like comparison, I can't imagine that significant of a disconnect between Citadel and MLP in process other than what Citadel might be doing at the fund level / offsetting / central book trading. Speaking with zero knowledge of course. 

The other explanation is that Citadel / MLP / DE Shaw has just acquired more talent - which is a virtuous cycle as the profits allow them to be the most aggressive at acquiring talent. At the end of the day, these funds are basically the future of institutional allocators; they are just exceptional at identifying and paying up for talent.

Curious that P72 equities seem to under perform Citadel Equities - but as I said before, it is really driven by how many exceptionally talented pods you can hire and lever up. Maybe the tighter limits and better talent allow for slightly more leverage? Speaking out of my ass here... 

 

Very helpful! Do you have any perspectives / thoughts on Baly? Would love to hear what people's thoughts are
