The New Hedge Fund Hotels

Large hedge funds look for certain criteria when picking stocks to buy. First, they need to be liquid stocks, trading at least 250k per day. Secondly, they need to have enough shares outstanding to absorb 9 figure position, putting the market cap minimum above $1 billion.

If you’re thinking about putting your money with a manager, ditch that idea and just select 10 stocks from the list I am about to post and go eat a sandwich.

YELP

OIS

DVN

WFT

EOG

BX

GE

OSK

NOW

FDX

URS

CRM

CTSH

MMC

BA

GM

BIIB

CE

The list goes on and on and on. Funds are buying the same names, which opens up opportunities in small caps who are being left out of the buying frenzy. The problem with small caps is boredom. Before you get a move in small caps, you may need to endure months of rank nonsense, watching those stocks trade stupidly, as everything else melts up.

    I’m eating a hot veal with mushrooms right now. Side olives.

      Very tasty sounding.
      What kind of olives?
      I just finished eating some Coho Salmon that I smoked on the grill over a combination of cherry and apple wood.
      I topped it off with some fresh key limes and dill.
      Not my usual lunch, but I volunteered as a cook for my wife who will take it over tonight for a friend’s house where the husband is in late stage of esophagus and liver cancer.

    I had the crusts of bread with cheese and turkey left over after my wife removed them from my daughter’s sandwiches for school lunch.
