Ark / Tether USD
crypto Composite

Governance seems to be a bit of a mess in this Nasdaq microcap (*previously a minor league football club holding company and now a Solana treasury company*), but with its hefty treasury holdings of Solana compared to its market cap and Solana pumping right now, this seems like a fun gamble and I took an unleveraged $20k position. It's this or the horses... Cathy Wood/ARK has more or less completely bailed out, although that could be a good sign given her recent performance.

Not looking good. ARK just bought more TSLA.

ARK bought Tesla stock, my calls are COOKED :screech:

I used AI but these investors didn't do much better than than sp500.
Warren Buffett / Berkshire Hathaway: Its long-run record is spectacular, but the edge has shrunk. Over roughly the last 10-15 years Berkshire has been close to the index and has trailed it in several stretches.
Bill Ackman (Pershing Square): The public fund's returns have been strong in some years and weak in others, and over long periods it has been roughly in line with or only modestly above the index.
Ray Dalio (Bridgewater): Its flagship funds were built to be diversified and lower-volatility, so they lagged a bull-market S&P in the 2010s even though they held up better in downturns.
Cathie Wood (ARK Invest): A huge 2020 win was followed by a collapse in 2021-2022, leaving long-run returns well behind the index.
John Paulson: His 2007 subprime bet was legendary, but his funds lagged badly afterward.
David Einhorn (Greenlight): He underperformed the S&P for most of the 2010s.
Bill Miller (Legg Mason Value Trust): He beat the S&P 15 years in a row through 2005, then lost much of that edge in 2007-2008.
Michael Burry: He had big wins on specific bets, but his fund's record outside those bets is mixed.
