Returns 90d +4.1% 62% correct · 24 calls · 180d +9.2% 69% correct · 16 calls · 1y +26.2% 69% correct · 16 calls
Raw direction-aware returns on public statements — long calls credited when the price rose, shorts when it fell, shorts capped at −100% — in a rising market this mostly measures who was long, not who has skill. Returns run from the stance date; calls are rarely closed publicly, so fixed 90-day / 180-day / 1-year horizons are used. A horizon shows only once it has fully matured, and only at 5+ scored stances. “% correct” is the share of those scored calls whose direction-aware return was positive at the horizon — in a rising market a bullish call is correct by default, so read it beside the market, not alone.
Scored calls
Every tracked call with at least one matured horizon: the rows behind the Returns line above. A dash is a horizon that has not matured yet.

Post-COVID facility closures and 2021-22 over-building created distressed entry points in a sector with aging-population tailwinds and pent-up rent growth that has been flat for years

LARGE-CAP QUALITY EQUITIES BEING DISCARDED AS AI LOSERS
bullish
Masters in Business · video
Market's single-minded pursuit of AI winners is causing indiscriminate selling of high-quality large-cap stocks perceived as AI-agnostic, creating mispricings that Baupost is exploiting without paying up for AI optionality.
“we think there's opportunity even in some larger cap high quality equities that are being thrown out”
Value Investing Legend and Charlie Munger Disciple Seth Klarman | Masters in Business
A massive wave of large IPOs (SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic) plus employee monetization pressure and simultaneous corporate capital needs from utilities and chip fabs creates a structural supply/demand imbalance that will pressure equity prices.

REAL ESTATE DISTRESSED OPPORTUNITIES
bullish
Seth Klarman · video
Fundamental challenges in real estate (office vacancies, retail troubles, lending pullback) have caused urgent selling, creating opportunities to buy assets, inject capital, or make rescue loans at attractive prices
“real estate is an area that is full of so many fundamental challenges but the fundamental challenges have caused urgent selling”
Seth Klarman Full Interview June 2023
Coinbase convertible bonds are well-protected because the company holds approximately $5 billion in cash exceeding its debt load, making the bonds covered by cash regardless of crypto outlook, while the business is cash-flow positive
“the bonds are quite well protected...the company's sitting on five billion dollars of cash and has less than that in debt”

“we hover around looking for opportunity, trying to meet counterparties that are eager to transact”
Seth Klarman Full Interview June 2023
Large well-established companies like Meta that are widely analyzable can still be mispriced due to short-term market inefficiency, as evidenced by the stock swinging from under $100 to nearly $300 in months, creating opportunity for value investors.

INDEX FUNDS (BROAD EQUITY MARKET)
bullish
Seth Klarman · video
Index funds are appropriate for unsophisticated long-term investors due to near-zero costs, but returns are highly dependent on entry valuation, making them potentially disappointing when bought at high multiples.
“the long-term return from investing depends on the entry price”
Legendary investor Seth Klarman on investing: Look for the most inefficient pockets in the world
After trying hard to understand the arguments for crypto, Klarman cannot find value there and therefore does not allocate time or capital to it.

Select RMBS generate high returns even under a depression stress test assuming housing falls a further 20% in both 2009 and 2010 plus 10% in 2011, which would push California prices to 1979 levels — securities that survive that scenario offer a margin of…

The royalty-receiving entity spun from PDL BioPharma generates locked-in royalty streams from partnered drugs that imply a ~30% annualized IRR when discounted conservatively, but the market ignores it because the odd security structure keeps it under-followed

The drug-discovery spinoff holds ~$16-17/share in net cash with no debt yet traded around $6, meaning you can buy it at a two-thirds discount to liquidation value — a classic Graham net-net where downside is structurally bounded
