Awesome
Sorry I am a newb...Please give me insight
Firm is at parity with GS and MS. They make it their business to keep their dealings private.
Legit serious here lmao.
chimpinout is a troll, or retarded (see previous posts for evidence).
I'm not googling them, because then you wouldn't learn anything. if you have to ask if they're legit, you already have your answer.
OP -- Have you recently been stabbed in the head with a screwdriver?
Also, legit serious here.
Why can't someone give me an answer. I'm not involved with finance. I have no fucking idea. How clear do i have to make it? Im just asking for help.
SHARON!!!!
I doubt anyone's heard of them tbh. I never have and I used to live in Miami and know, or at least know of, most of the legit players (and came across a lot of not legit ones) in South Florida up through Boca. Lots of shady shit goes on down there. Their websites look odd, especially that second link (I'd say bad 1997 website design). And the language is generic BS (although I only skimmed it). It also says one of their strategies is a $100MM minimum. I highly doubt that.
Not saying they're a scam but it looks odd. Google their top employees. I'd bet you'll find some weird shit about them.

If they aren't FINRA, run away...that is always the first sniff test.
Also, a quick google search revealed this:
AJ Faigin left Lustig Pro Sports in 1987 but was nonetheless later drawn into a lawsuit against the firm and its founder Greg Lustig over investment decisions and tax shelters recommended by Lustig. Faigin was voluntarily dismissed, but sought monetary sanctions. The Federal Judge held AJ Faigin the victim of “a frivolous suit” awarding $13,000 in Sanctions from Kelly and his attorney for joining him in the first instance, and having knowledge that he was not involved with client investments

Sports agents don't just leave to become investment bankers...that is trending the wrong direction.
Also, this: " having executed 300+ deals worth more than $6 billion"
That's a lot of singles and doubles...not exactly big shot territory, plus he's mixing M&A and sports agents deals, which isn't exactly right. I could have claimed $6B in deals closed as a second year analyst.
OP, firm is legit. They compete pretty ferociously with Macro Penor Advisors...among others
Confirmed
.
Their website is amazing. My favorite parts:
-One of their M&A services is "creation of acquisition model" -Having done business on "all five continents" -Team photos being a combination of black/white and color with different backgrounds (one dude has other people in the background!) and fonts in the bios
Macrotrend is a total scam. They claim a readiness to fund with $1B HSBC backing. Sounds great but document has been forged. Search "mlm aladincoin" and you will see it there. Aladincoin is a ethereum based cryptocurrency issued bt Aladin Capital llc which is a subsidiary of MacroTrend Capital. Similar team members. Stay away from Greg Lustig and Kevin Gluckstal.
They are a fraud. They scam legitimate businesses for documents. then they "shop" these documents pretending that they have an investment portfolio already invested. along with fraudulent bank documents they then try to dupe investors into giving them money for various schemes. they never invest money and they defraud investors using all kinds of forged documents. Very scary group - greg lusitg, kevin gluckstal, rick jordan.
they use aladin coin as another one of their ponzi schemes.
