We break it down inside September 06, 2022 | [Read Online]( GM. This is the Milk Road, the newsletter that's more energizing than a swig of Monster Energy. Now let's get into the good stuff: - The Big Short guy says the bottom isn't in
- Quick Bites
- Meme of the Day THE BIG SHORT GUY SAYS THE BOTTOM ISN'T IN Michael Burry recently made a big move - he sold all his stocks. Every. Single. One. If you donât know Burry, heâs the âBig Shortâ guy. And no, heâs not 5â2 and 450 lbs. Heâs: - A successful hedge fund manager
- Predicted the housing crash in 2007
- Made millions betting on it
- Had a movie made about him Needless to say, heâs pretty well-known in the investing world and a lot of people watch his portfolio closely. So whyâd he sell his stocks? He doesnât think the bottom is in. In fact, he only thinks weâre about halfway there. This isn't the first time he's said the bottom isn't in. But it is the first time he's sold everything. But before we jump into his reasoning, letâs get the big question out of the way⦠What does this have to do with crypto? Well, crypto and stocks are heavily correlated at the moment. It actually hit all-time highs earlier this year. Just check it out. Basically, crypto & stocks are two-stepping with each other. With the S&P500 leading the way. If it goes up, so does crypto. If it drops it **[low, low, low*](* then so does crypto. So when a big investor like Burry makes a big move like clearing out his entire stock portfolio, it should definitely catch your attention in crypto. So whatâs his reasoning? He thinks 2 things: 1/ Weâre in the greatest speculative bubble of all time Burry has been saying this for the last 8-12 months and has predicted the bubble was gonna pop soon. But heâs held on to most of his stocks, so people didnât take it too seriously. Up until last month where he sold everything except one thingâ¦GEO Group - a private prison operator. Because apparently prisons are a recession-resistant investment. Who knew?? 2/ He thinks weâre only halfway through the crash and stocks will plummet another 20-35% He believes the first half crash was due to âmultiples compressionsâ. This second-half crash will be because of âearnings compressionâ. Multiple compressions are when company earnings increase or stay the same, but the price of the stock lowers. Earnings compressions are the fall in company reported earnings due to an economic slowdown. The Milk Road's Take: We arenât gonna stop, drop, and sell everything because of this. Burry has warned of doomsday before - he called crashes in [2017](, [2019](, and even [last year](. Still, it definitely catches our attention when a prolific investor sells everything. We canât predict the future, but buckle up, folks - we might be in for a ride. And if you wanna go watch the interview, [we got you](. TODAY'S EMAIL IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY [COMPOSER]( How did this hedge fund return 66% per year? If you invested $10,000 in Renaissance Technologiesâ Medallion in 1988, youâd cash out in 2018 with a cool $200,000,000. Their secret sauce? "Quantitative Investing." Instead of hiring slick-talking Wall Street suits, Medallion is run by an army of computer scientists, mathematicians, and neural engineers that specialize in quantitative investing that eliminates human biases (fear, greed, FOMO). Unless you are a PHD-wielding, Python-coding, Excel-Wizardâ¦that type of quant-trading has been out of reach. Until now⦠[Composer]( gives you the financial firepower to easily drag, drop, edit and swap quant-investing strategies from scratch - no engineering degree required.
