CARL ICAHN'S IDIOT BUTTON
from The ACID Capitalist Podcast Hosted by Hugh Hendry
Send us Fan Mail I hate Fridays.This week we had a bantam weight world title decider between the contrarian and the populist. The Acid Capitalist squares up against Dylan Grice. Dylan spent years as a macro advisor tussling with the world's best hedge fund minds. He's worth a listen although the passing years haven't been kind. Still he's coining it in 😘 He takes us through his fund of fund allocations which have paid off this year. We go way back to discover revelations from his earlier career; just what was the payroll number? Schwager interviewed macro talents who could dream the number, Dylan wasn't bothered... Everyone has a 2008 story. @dylangrice worked for disgraced Ponzi hedge fund manager Bernie Madoff ! An impressionable Dylan thought they rivalled Buffet in the liquidity stakes that fateful winter, little did he realise that he was part of a giant money laundering scheme. Later @dylangrice was invited to pay his respects at the Manhattan palace of the great Carl Icahn. He regales us with the wonders of what he found there. If Steinhardt kept a gun in his drawer, Carl was more a hammer type guy. A young Dylan feared his seat was rigged to eject #hedgefunds #macro #economics #trading #deflation Support the show ⬇️ Subscribe on Patreon or Substack for full episodes ⬇️ https://www.patreon.com/HughHendry https://hughhendry.substack.com https://www.instagram.com/hughhendryofficial https://blancbleustbarts.com https://www.instagram.com/blancbleuofficial ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a five star review and comment on Apple Podcasts! 🧢 Hats & Merch 📸 Instagram 🐦 Twitter / X 📩 Substack 👂Listen and 🔥 Subscribe 📺 YouTube 🎧 ...
