0 Did you read his essay? A surprising number of his predictions must've sounded like an outlandish bull case when he wrote in 2024 but quite a few have been hit.  Tortuga Vallarta
0 May be a strong term. But would say he was pretty early on it in June '24 when he wrote the blog, not regurgitating anything that was obvious at that point in time. VP in PE - LBOs

0 It's amazing in the age of AI you don't even bother googling the guy's background before posting your silly question on WSO. The name of the fund is literally the name of the essay that made him famous. MMPM

0 Probably pulling an all nighter due to facetime. Waste of a life. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen

0 UBS has a few strong folks at the senior level but lots of bloat and limited M&A deal execution experience  meghanthebanker
0 Everyone dipping down into the MM given the slow down in M&A over the last few years  meghanthebanker

0 Been in MM M&A for 20 years. Happy to respond directly to any woman looking for insights. meghanthebanker
0 Was former HL ADG in LA - one of 5 senior bankers (SVP and up) at the time. Most everyone has left with the exception of one (now) MD and junior staff that got promoted up. meghanthebanker

0 At top BBs its yours to lose  Teller in Non-profit

0 wallstrettIt's a good thread idea tbh Yeah this website is fucked  IsItREPE
0 Haven't been in the sector long enough to talk about the other banks mentioned, IDK to be honest. But RBC I can confidently say punches above its weight in Infra. Seen some great exits out of their team Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
0 idk about the rest but the last 2 exits from the infra team at EVR in lnd were KKR infra and blackstone infra which is pretty solid imo Analyst 1 in IB-M&A

0 Good deal flow, sweaty. Not sure about culture Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
0 You are absolutely hitting the nail on the head; this isn't an IPO designed for price discovery, but a highly calculated financial engineering mechanism structured to weaponize retail momentum and passive index mandates. charlialxendr
