I don't want your money, Atticus. But here are the facts, in 2006 Matador had $346 million per Bloomberg, making an average annural return of 41% per year--- the fund was larger in 2007 and there were other funds managed other than the largest (offshore) "Since 2002, Niederhoffer has parlayed $2 million into a new, $346 million hedge fund, Matador Fund Ltd. Last year, he posted a 56 percent return, for an average annual return of 41 percent." Will you still bet that he never went over 500M prior to drawdown? And what do you need as proof? WIll Barclay Hedge (non internet) surfice? surf PS-- here's the link to the Bloomberg for those who want to know what I am talkign about-- http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aOnekV3748wc
Please I ask everyone to stop responding to this guy. He lives off the responses and the best thing is to stop responding. Who the hell cares what he claims, or says. It has been identified what a phony he is and survives off of responses. This is my last response on any Surf phony thread. He offers nothing of value. He claims a trading genius and fails, and then claims friendship with guys who have failed miserably. Enough, stop offering him value by responding.
Damn, ok one more. How many threads has Surf had closed and claimed he has posted his last post on ET? Yet, here he is again. No value to Sturfbagocrap.
Yes, he never went over $500MM. Octane was by far the greatest contributor to his AUM and I have the numbers from Octane concerning Manchester (feeder) by month. The $150MM I refer to (no impact on the wager) relates to shortly before the implosion. Good call to beg-off on the wager. I have the numbers in the DDoc.
Proof. And you keep editing after I post a reply and quote you, which requires an edit on my end. Are you really this shady?
