This puts a big dent in my opinion of whether being a "Tiger Cub" counts at all as a symbol for quality. If Hwang was a top guy at the original Tiger and he trades like this, do these guys really know what they're doing? Of course the top funds like Viking, Lone Pine, etc. are still great based on their own performance but this really hurts the overall brand to me at least. And at least Melvin got blown out by something novel, Archegos got destroyed by just a few down days in a row.

Kid - no one gives a fuck about your view of "overall brand" of Tiger Cub XYZ.
