u have to admit tho the guy was/is extremely talented, achievin' extraordinary returns from the beginnin' when he was a nobody and surely without any priviledged insider info available to him. i agree that it is probable later in his career he had access to some kinda information advantage but still a fella to look up to, no 2ways about it imo.
Byrne on the Radio Tonight, September 17, 8-10pm Eastern time. It's a call in type show, so ask your questions. The stream is at KFYI.com. Here is the rest of the agenda. WHAT I SUGGEST, IS ASK HIM ABOUT HIS OPINION OF THE STEVE COHEN ARTICLE. HE HAS SPENT TWO YEARS AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN HIS INVESTIGATIONS, AND HE MIGHT GIVE YOU A VERY INTERESTING ANSWER.

The first hour will tentatively be about Taser The second hour (6pm) will be all Patrick Host: Terry Gilberg Format: Live talk radio show Topic: Naked short selling; Gradient lawsuit; Overstock; Taser Duration: 1 or 2 hours (depending on whether Patrick is on the first hour) Finishes up at 7pm
Does anyone else have any pictures of the SAC trading floor or a close up of Steve's in that picture. I find it interesting to see.
Here's a Business Week article on Steve Cohen from a few years ago http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/03_29/b3842001_mz001.htm
Great article thanks for sharing !!! Go Stevie ....... I have never been the groupie fan type ever in my life but man would I like to meet Stevie and talk shop with him for a few hours or even better to work for him (I happily do it for free) I completely RESPECT and ADMIRE this man. I understand he is a great philanthropist too.
frozen sculpture of the artists head...made from his own blood...ummm yah.... Of course SAC gets props all over the place. However I disagree with the days of large returns being over. The quick and nimble small time trader(<5million) can still get involved in names that SAC types cannot. Volume issues and the like.
True, and that is why SAC moved on, due to their size. This is the normal trajectory of funds that do wel and amas size over time. SAC has no other choice.
