it's a disturbing worst-of-both-worlds combo of a performance-chasing thematic ETF and a private-equity fund with noctiferous disclosure

[Dave Nadig @DaveNadig]

Wild to me that every week, the US sovereign wealth fund is buying up chunks of private companies with my tax dollars and there’s zero coverage or fanfare. As far as I know @CatoInstitute is the only place you can even find out what we bought this month. https://t.co/WbJnQAZAW8

🚨Interrupting our regular programming for some good news:

@jasonzweigwsj linked to my article in his (awesome) Intelligent Investor column in The Wall Street Journal!

For those who missed our previous episodes: I'm crowdsourcing ideas for what the SEC should require private funds to disclose.

The SEC is considering rule amendments aimed at facilitating what it calls "responsible retailization" 🫠 of private markets.

The retailization train is coming, regardless of what you and I think about it.

This is our shot to make the playing field a little flatter and private markets less opaque. Let's use it.

At the top of the wish list, based on reader feedback: redemption history. Not just how much money investors got back, but how much they actually asked to redeem.

A few more things I'd love to see:

→ Valuation inputs and methodologies

→ Look-through leverage

→ Fees, PIK interest (toggles vs switches), and borrower credit quality (with related metrics)

→ A complete map of SPVs and related-party transactions

What else belongs on the list?

I'm collecting suggestions -- bring it, kids.

I'm always wrong about gold. You probably are, too. Plus, why do we say we "redeem" a fund?

@RandoM160826 It's percentage change, not dollar change, that matters to investors.

[Jason Zweig @jasonzweigwsj]

"the largest market sell off in history"

🤔

[Rando M @RandoM160826]

@WSJ @jasonzweigwsj Lol. This is what you say after the largest market sell off in history?

It had to happen sooner or later: There's now an investment fund that buys and flips Birkin bags.

My choice for Read of the Day in the @WSJ:

A Soldier Cut Off His Own Foot to Survive. Then Came a Daring Drone Rescue.

This story of the heroism and ultimate rescue of a Ukrainian soldier is just phenomenal.

AI-made video retrieves The Intelligent Investor from the trash. Seems right. (Why does he have two watches?)

The prehistory of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, by @BRK_Student

https://t.co/0pQjLHKHIm

[Adam J. Mead (Watchlist Investing) @BRK_Student]

Berkshire Hathaway was a New England textile company long before Buffett or Omaha, and it was domiciled in Massachusetts.

The Museum of American Finance just ran an excerpt from my book, The Complete Financial History of Berkshire Hathaway, tracing the company’s roots back to the earliest days of American manufacturing and the mills of Massachusetts.
