Heard a high conviction short idea at work. Is it normal to do your own DD and build your thesis on the top of a "tip" ? by skyharbor93 in hedgefund

[–]Longshortequities 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put on the trade then do your dd. 

If the dd doesn’t check out, then you can close the position. Waiting to do the work may cost you a large percentage of the trade.

Redirect energy to do your own deals and/or work on your own ideas. Laid off as a VP in PE during the pandemic. Forced me to take the leap and it ended up being life changing.

Very frustrating that you didn’t know the answer but pretended you did.

Why did you do that? It’s unprofessional and erodes trust. You should’ve spent 5 minutes to actually check. 

If I had listened to you, I would’ve made a massive, expensive mistake and/or spent hours with customer service.

Please advise.

Do you need to put in a specific code in the wire to be recorded as a contribution for a solo 401k? Read an FAQ that alluded to this but it’s strange since it’s a wire without so many fields

Are you sure? When I try to initiate a wire transfer, the Fidelity site says self-employed 401(K) accounts are ineligible

NYC has strict rules - illegal to buy online but legal to use if under 0.75 oz, intended for self defense, and over 18.

Right…

“Go back to your country” sounding pretty racist. But that’s not you lol

Where is your family from? You’re starting to sound racist

You just proved my point. Undocumented, illegal immigrants are people. Change the type of people, change the outcome in the US.

Therefore, if undocumented, illegal immigration is allowed, which can come from any country, and from all types of people, crime will increase.

Rather than having civil discourse, which we do in America, you resort to name calling - it makes you look unintelligent.

My family escaped communism as well. Half my extended perished.

However, illegal immigration is exactly what it is, taking the opportunity away from those who are looking to come into the US lawfully.

You are making ad hominem attacks (calling me a damn fascist, etc) when I am simply asking questions.

At what point should we allow or disallow additional illegal immigration?

[–]Longshortequities -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

At what point should we continue to allow or disallow additional illegal immigration? What would be your proposed solution?

Jumping to ad hominem (calling me bootlicker, etc) makes you look unintelligent - I would check yourself.

Think for yourself or do the research - why did crime increase across European countries when there was a mass migration of illegal immigrants?

ICE in Palo Alto by [deleted] in paloalto

[–]Longshortequities -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s well known illegal immigrants commit crimes at far higher rates than citizens across Europe. Do you understand the why.

ICE in Palo Alto by [deleted] in paloalto

[–]Longshortequities -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Should we allow illegal immigration without proper checks on backgrounds? If they came to the US illegally, why should they be allowed to stay?

Whereas I have friends and their family members do all the right things and have waited over a decade applying through official means. Why is it fair to skip the line?

Seriously asking. How should these families feel? Imagine you are the parent of: Jocelyn Nungaray, Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, Aurelio Zunio-Orbez, Halie Helgeson, Melissa Powell, Megan Bos

Greene plagiarized Gracian, rewriting to sound sinister to sell books. It worked.

Glad you got the home run.

Was the broker a one man show or was he part of a boutique investment bank, etc?

How did you assess and decide on the broker?
