What is Guggenheim Houston team’s reputation like?
group is hella dead now
Interesting, why do you say so?
The team is growing and doing deals. They announced the LLOG deal earlier and closed a minerals deal as well with several mandates in progress.
What a joke. You missed every meaningful E&P deal, DVN/Coterra, SM/Civitas, Antero/HG, Crescent/Vital, Encino > EOG, Magnolia/WildFire, Verdad, Double Eagle, Olympus, LOGOS, PENN, and then spoke about an OFS deal as if it mattered
Jeff HOU is S++++ and is equivalent to the geniuses at UBS FIG
Bump. Anyone know about GUGG and GS?
How’s Mizuho? Seen them on some deals
Tier 1: JEFF / EVR / JPM / GS
Tier 2: RBC / Citi / TPH / MOE
Tier 3: Barclays / Bofa / LAZ / WF
This is inaccurate. Any list where Goldman Sachs and Jefferies aren’t 1st and 2nd is wrong. RBCs deal flow alone could make them Tier 1. Citi and TPH are not the A&D machines they used to be; senior departures and rough culture have knocked them—they should be Tier 3. Moelis wins nowhere near enough mandates to be Tier 2. BofA works almost exclusively on ECM/DCM. Lazard is a joke in oil & gas. Wells Fargo is a debt shop.
Just curious - how would u rank things? I largely agree with your takes
Thoughts on HL scotia and Roth?
.
when was the last time tph worked on a significant transaction
Greenhill Mizuho slander will not be tolerated. Also did we forget that Piper exists?
JEF/GS are the clear 1/2
Where would you put Piper?
What the base salary range for AS at TPH?
Thoughts on SocGen energy? Seen then on some deals
I got a buddy there. They're more project finance and corporate banking, not M&A. That said, culture and WLB sounds good
Why would you wanna work there lol
How is Citi right now?
