Tounge in cheek, and agree. Continue to view public markets like casinos, computer driven rigged games - that can create great opportunities for the intrepid poker (or better, blitz chess) player. <10% public securities, the rest private (great opportunity to be the bank, creating investments with senior debt, high teens coupons, equity kickers and strong downside protections / collateral). NORW, MHR, AXL, STO, VLY, MERKX, BRKB among public holdings, with >50% of the ~10% Norway-related. Cost basis for all other than MHR at/below/around current levels. Did add to NORW and MHR today near lows. |
