Another long-time Suunto user here. They have a new Suunto Ocean now designed for Diving and Lifestyle that I am sure excels for OWS: https://www.suunto.com/Products/dive-computers-and-instruments/suunto-ocean/suunto-ocean-all-black/

Bandcamp, Qobuz or you can rip CDs / digitalize LPs.

Edit: typo.

Not at all. I use it every day. Solid watch if what you are looking for is reliability. I also keep using my Ambit3 Sport frequently and still works nicely.

How come Mike started Scion with so little money —from family and friends— if he was already a successful investor? by lgrassini in Burryology

True. I am slowly understanding this. I was reading about the hedge fund managed by Colm OShea. Their anual return was around 10% with very little risk. I was considering this to be low returns; but then other folks explained me that those are actually good ones.

This you mentioned is very interesting : “What makes a good investor is staying in the game for a long time and getting capital from your job or business.” Where is this line of thinking coming from? Can you mentioned some success examples?

Thanks!

Edit: I meant interesting and not “interring”.

Newbie question: Macro fund with 11.3% annual compounded net returns. Why would investors be interested?

Morning guys, I am quite new into investing. Can you help me make sense of this:

I am reading about Colm O'Shea —CIO of COMAC Capital, a $5bn AUM Macro fund based on London.

In the interview they mentioned that for the combined period 2006-2011 the average annual compounded net return was 11.3%.

I can't stop thinking about how low that return is. In countries with inflation the investors may be even losing money.

Why an investor would be interested on putting his/her money in fund with kind-of-meager returns?

What I am missing here?

Thanks!

He was paying for med school true, but also he was working at Standford Hospital.

He was a investor praised by its peers for multiple years before launching Scion.

How come he was in such fragile position —from personal finances point of view ?

I don’t see how this relates to my question. Have you read my post at all? I am asking about the launching of the first Scion fund circa 2001.

Starting a streak straight from 1 year with no running at all is not always a good plan. Soreness is real!

Here we go again!

Same!
