Ted Seides Concedes Bet with Warren Buffett
> "Comparing hedge funds and the S&P 500 is a little bit like asking which team is better, the Chicago Bulls or the Chicago Bears. Like the Bulls and the Bears in the Windy City, hedge funds and the S&P 500 play different sports."That, to me, is a CRAZY statement to make. Both ETFs and hedge fund are financial funds that a person considers putting their money in with the intention of maximizing their return. To say that they "play different sports" is at best stretching the truth, at worst a lie.> "The unexpected strength of the S&P 500 was a key contributor to Warren’s victory. Despite trading for a high multiple of earnings and facing an elevated level of risk, the S&P 500 performed in-line with historical averages."So the "unexpected strength" came from performing "in-line with historical averages"?
