New funds that are killing it?
Hey all!
I just saw a thread//www.yjhypon.com/forums/anyone-hea…. I was wondering do any of the hyped new launches ever live up to the hype.? I remember there was one a while back who had the backing of Steve Cohen and Dan Loeb and have heard nothing since. The same with Keysquare Capital and other Soros family office alumni. Aside from Melvin Capital, is any new fund killing it?
Edit: Rokos, Kirkoswald, Whale Rock, D1, the family office of David Bonderman. Are all funds that are killing it.

Not that new, but Whale rock has been on fire the last few years. Not my cup of tea in terms of strategy, but can't knock what's working.
What strategy? From reading online it says they do tech l/s investing, is that primarily it?
Right I've also been hearing about them and come across performance numbers here and there. Do you think D1 will keep doing well?
Whale Rock invests like a high growth techETF, but their performance has been stellar over the last 3 or so years. Would recommend reading this if you're interested in learning a bit more about their investing style:https://medium.com/graham-and-doddsville/alex-sacerdote-of-whale-rock-capital-ee46fcbfd8eb
Along that line, I would highlight Atreides Management, not sure about their performance, but similar pre S-curve investing style (disruptive nascent businesses with secular tailwind is their bread and butter)
PM is Gavin Baker, look him up, he does a lot of interviews / podcasts, guy is a freak of nature smart and well-read. Both Alex Sacerdote (Whalerock) and Gavin Baker (Atreides) at one point ran theFidelity场外基金,which is right now ~$17bn AUM.

mega funds performance no. smaller funds are doing very well but they are not hiring. let us simply put they don't need many ppl
Cinctive has been doing quite well - launched late 2019 by ex-Diamondback heads
How well have they been doing?
how to compare these new stars - D1, Holocene, Cinctive, Valiant capital, Verition, etc? Who has been a strong performer YTD?
.
D1 has had a strong run so far
Holocene
FYI: Almost everyone at a fund shop has really strict rules about talking about products on social media. Even anonymously or if they belong to a different shop. Don't expect any comments from anybody who knows anything.

true their numbers are a lot harder to find, but still good nonetheless.
Light Sky performance is awful...
2017: -10%
2018: -3%
2019: +18%
2020: +3% (after being down -10% in Q1)
I stand corrected then. Thanks for the update.
what about quant shops?
HasAquatic started tradingyet?
Voleon (not that new)?
Voleon is trash. Sharpe way less than 1 since inception
