Attention SAC Capital employees working out of 72 Cummings Point Road today. Stop what you're doing and go line up in single file order on the floor because you are moments a way from a very special treat. That's right-- celebratory rides on the Zamboni, which was brought over from the Greenwich rink just for you. What's there to celebrate, you ask? Ping is back, baby! No, kidding. But it's still pretty (though not as) good. After finishing the year down 18.7 percent, SAC Capital International returned a relatively stellar 3.80 percent in January. And it doesn't stop there. The Big Guy is so proud that, provided this is the beginning of great things to come, he's considering converting the whole building into a rink, and making this rides-for-performance thing a regular feature (the flip side being that the Z, which will double as the BG's desk, will shoot out pucks at random at high speeds to keep everyone on their toes, and losing portfolios be forced to scrub it with clean after down months). http://dealbreaker.com/2009/02/sac-turning-it-around.php
If he's doing it, "if" being operative, he aint' doing it on 15 billion. He's working w/a fraction of that.
