could not have possibly gotten thru the day with know this news, so looking forward to the next public service message.
Maybe where you come from you can be dismissive of a $319M hedge fund. Furthermore for the investment specialty or its holdings it may not be so small.
The top 20 US Utilities have close to a Trillion Dollar market cap so yeah, $319M is really small potatoes in that space.
Understood. They may not hold any of the top 20 US Utilities but are holding positions in an obscure sub-sector which offers outlandish returns commiserate with high risk.
