shouldn't be so greedy

They need to sack the 1000 analysts and quants earning millions and just employ Pooper. He knows the news before the news by drawing some squiggly lines on a historic chart.

With all the tea-leaves he reads to draw his charts, surely the only worthwhile investment is in tea!

[Zigenare]

Ironically he trades through Landsdowne too .....

"The world’s most popular hedge-fund strategy is no longer working.

Lansdowne Partners this week shuttered the long-short equity fund that made it famous, raising fears about the future of peers who make money by betting on winning stocks and shorting losers. Sloane Robinson also called it a day after more than 25 years of buying and selling equities.

The closures reinforce the bruising reality that such funds have captured most of the market’s downside in recent years, but very little of the upside. They also beg the question: If the arrival of a deadly pandemic that’s pummeled the world’s economies can’t work in short-sellers’ favor, then what can?"

Shorting no longer works, somebody needs to tell Pooper

Everything works if you never sell an asset or position at a loss.
