"David Einhorn wants ladies in ‘sexy party clothes’ at his hedge fund party
Billionaire David Einhorn is throwing a party in New York this weekend to celebrate Greenlight Capital’s 30th anniversary.
If you squint, the invitation looks banal. Predictable theme ('Vegas Nightclub'), less predictable location ('Brooklyn'). But then comes the fine print. The dress code, just for 'the ladies', is more exacting: 'sexy party clothes'.
Yes, that’s right, Einhorn is openly telling women they better look hot or else to celebrate his hedge fund. You might think this is the invite for some frat party, instead of a multibillion-dollar money manager. You’d be wrong.
Meanwhile men get a free pass.
(. . .)
We had a hunch the #MeToo era that smacked Wall Street in the face nearly a decade ago had already been subsumed by cobwebs, forgotten to the winds of pre-Maga times. Maybe you remember this lovely quote that went viral from main FT last year, not long after Trump took office:
"Even the way people on Wall Street talk and interact is changing. Bankers and financiers say Trump’s victory has emboldened those who chafed at 'woke doctrine' and felt they had to self-censor or change their language to avoid offending younger colleagues, women, minorities or disabled people.
'I feel liberated, said a top banker. 'We can say ‘retard’ and ‘pussy’ without the fear of getting cancelled . . . it’s a new dawn.'”

While we are told that what hedge funds profit from is volatility it now seems that the Tangerine Tyrant has been to prompt such high speed volatility that hedge funds have not been able to keep up... many have made money on their positions on oil, but have lost even more in other trades (not least of all on the bond market).
That sound you can now hear in your head is the sound of a very small violin....

Hmmm.... so hedge finds who had bought up Venezuelan debt (bonds) immediately made a handsome (paper) profit when the bonds surged in price by 24% on the prospect that a US-run Venezuela might start to pay back its sovereign debt.
You might ask: how influential were those hedge funds (who have building positions in Venezuelan debt for some years) in encouraging the Tangerine Tyrant to take action now?
Or it could all just be a happy coincidence ...
