  + stars: | 2024-05-31 | by ( Geoff Weiss | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Read previewFormer President Donald Trump's conviction yesterday on falsifying business records hasn't dissuaded high-profile supporters on Wall Street — some of whom are newly energized by the historic verdict. "Bluntly, that's part of why I'm supporting him," Maguire, a partner at Sequoia Capital, wrote on X about a potential conviction. AdvertisementTech investor David Sacks, who was reportedly in talks to hold a Trump campaign fundraiser at his San Francisco home, denounced the guilty verdict on X. "A sham trial designed for one purpose: to brand Donald Trump as a 'felon,'" Sacks wrote yesterday on X. AdvertisementIt wasn't only prominent business leaders on Wall Street circling their wagons.

☆ Ackman's bet against US Treasuries pays off with $200 mln profit
  + stars: | 2023-10-25 | by ( Svea Herbst-Bayliss | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
Ackman said on Monday on X, "we covered our bond short" some 12 weeks after he announced the bet on the messaging platform formerly known as Twitter. "The economy is slowing faster than recent data suggests," Ackman said in the post, adding "There is too much risk in the world to remain short bonds at current long-term rates." The yield on the 30-year Treasuries was around 4.16% when he announced his bet against them. He said the Treasury yield, which moves in the opposite direction of prices, could rise to 5.5%. But the conflict between Islamist group Hamas and Israel is unnerving investors and suggests Treasuries could become a safe investment option.

☆ Billionaire investor Ackman says he is shorting 30-year Treasuries
  + stars: | 2023-08-03 | by ( Svea Herbst-Bayliss | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
"We are short in size the 30-year T," Ackman wrote on messaging platform X, formerly known as Twitter. "We implement these hedges by purchasing options rather than shorting bonds outright," Ackman wrote. Ackman said higher defense costs, energy transition and the greater bargaining power of workers all point toward higher inflation. "The best hedges are the ones you would invest in anyway even if you didn't need the hedge," Ackman wrote. A spokesman for Ackman didn't respond to a Reuters request for additional comment.

☆ There are limited options to fix the banking crisis, but one is gaining support
  + stars: | 2023-05-04 | by ( Jeff Cox | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
Ackman didn't provide specifics on how he thinks a deposit guarantee program would work, but he said one is essential to restore investor confidence in regional banks. That has put pressure on midsize banks, and the S & P Regional Bank ETF has fallen 40% year to date. Short sellers have ganged up on some regional banks on the prospect that even those that are rescued or merged will see stock holders wiped out. "Renewed stress among regional bank stocks after market close may cause [Washington, D.C.] to reconsider priorities," Mayo said in a client note. "Unfortunately, there is a significant disconnect between the renewed pressure on regional banks and DC's posture," Mills said in a note.
