Es gibt einen interessanten Bericht über Julian Robertson und seine "Babies". Folgende Geschichte ist eine von vielen,
"Tenacity, like character judgment, is not the sort of edge that pays off every timeand sometimes when it did, luck was the crucial factor. In 1987 a young lieutenant named John Griffinpersuaded Robertson to short a small appliance maker whose manufacturing was based in China. ... the stock shot up from $20 to $25. Griffin and Robertson stuck with their convictions, but the news did not improve: The company ...$35. In 1988 Griffin went off to business school at Stanford but begged his commander to keep faith with the trade: It would come good! He was convinced of it! Robertson indulged Griffin, even though the stock had by now doubled to $40meaning that the bet had so far cost Tiger 100 percent of its original stake. One day at Stanford, Griffin got a fax from the big man. There were no words on the paper. It just said, $50! Months passed. And then, in April 1989, one hundred thousand demonstrators marched into Tiananmen Square in Chinas capital. ... American companies with factories in China saw their stocks fall off a cliff.... Griffin ran excitedly to a pay phone. ... Julian, I told you it would work! You stayed with it! You believed in me! It worked! I KNEW it would work! Seated on the other side of the American continent, Robertson listened to this outburst. Now, John, now, John, he answered in his honeysuckle drawl. The way Ah see it, is that it took a revolution of a bihl-lionpeople for your darn short to work out.
Griffin described the enduring sense that Robertson was watching over him, judging his decisions. All money managers wish they had a little birdie on their shoulder who might whisper the correct market move from time to time, Griffin declared. Well, my little birdie has a deep southern drawl and a bald head. Sometimes I hear him chirp: Big guy, dont do that.
Das sind keine Anfänger. Aber ich verstehe es trotzdem nicht.
Noch ein Zitat zu ihm:
Griffin founded Blue Ridge Capital Management in 1996. Blue Ridge is best known for its long-short strategy, the practice of complementing stock purchases with corresponding short positions. The strategy is considered risky by some, but its practitioners argue it is an effective way to boost returns. Most value funds only invest in an asset when it is considered undervalued while overvalued funds are ignored. Griffin believes overvalued assets can also be shorted to make returns.
Ich habe lange geforscht, aber keine Antwort gefunden, was Griffin hier plant: Ist es die Absicherung eines Investments? Dann müsste man doch sehen oder hören oder lesen, dass er wirecard gut findet? Oder will er durch Kursverluste Gewinne machen. Dann...
Ach, was ich nebenbei erwähnen wollte... Ich bin kein Aktienguru, aber Ciotadel, eng verbunden mit Julian Robertson, wie man lesen kann, hat seine Shortposition bei einer deutschen Firma vergrößert:

Ich habe irgendwo mal geschrieben (ich suche es noch): Wirecard wurde angegriffen, Ströer, wer ist wohl der Nächste? Und ich habe gechrieben "wenn ich einmal raten frei hätt, ..." - freenet hab ich gemeint :)
