are they all hiring?
Probably? I think Antara had a mid level guy leave recently.
Thanks know much else about them?
Thanks. Who would you compare them to in the industry? Seems to be unique. Any idea why they left
Nut tree 😂
Ain’t no way there’s a firm called nut tree
Nut tree returns are always lowest in November
This is true, but the returns usually explode come December.
That's necessary - no one likes a blue ball
I understand Nut Tree has been really blowing it out of the park recently
Okay. Anybody actually know anything about these 3. Thanks
Nut tree focuses on distress
.
What are the relative differences in strategy as you see them?
Looking for more of an explanation as to why you would or wouldn't join. Just a ranking without context, not helpful.
It's free info by real industry professionals, if you don't like, you can STFU and GFTO

Da NutRoom
bro really sat down and made the conscious decision to name his hedge fund nut tree 😭😭
I also thought nut tree was a troll job but nope- does exist
i assume you're a junior. can't comment on how things look for more mid/sr. analyst and the range of outcomes will naturallly be far wider. nut tree / antara both are great places to be and get active in topical situations (old news but look up antara / amc thesis. quite creative). lion point isnt that large and theyve been around a while. that's a data point. however, didric has (had?) a very good reputation. if your goal is to learn credit and maybe go to grad school, you prob get excellent learning opportunity at any of the above. needless to say, youll also work hard
Thanks, already have a seat at small distressed fund. Just wanted to know more about these 3 specifically, as recruiters have mentioned.
still not sure about yoe so take w/ grain of salt. konw some of these people. nut tree will basically be all credit vs. the others, which i understand does more equity. not sure how that breaks down across the team though. context, i was previously at a peer shop where some just did credit or equity. at another now, where i go anywhere (within reason ;)). id prob focus on the larger 2. antara seems like a sneaky good seat if you fancy yourself a true (or aspiring) idea generator -- kinda finger in the air on that point. but again, look at the theses theyre putting out. comp likely goes up vs. your seat at either of them, just based on respective aum / trajectory

Bloomberg article on Antara out today: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-08/blackstone-backed-he…
Seems like they made some private investments that have done pretty poorly? Wasn't sure if these were true private investments or just post reorg equities they eventually marked down in 2023. Down mid teens in consecutive years while HY/LL indices were up low teens in 2023
RIP
Given the -14.3% for 2022 and -17.7% for 2023 are based on private marks, reality (MtM) is probably even worse. Wild for a credit-focused fund to be down that much
Years later, the Nut Tree name still gets me LMAOOOOOOOO
nut tree gets involved in really hairy situations I heard
then that is one hairy nut
