The hunt for Steve Cohen.<\/strong><\/span> From the latest Vanity Fair.<\/p>\n

With arrest after arrest in a massive, seven-year insider-trading investigation, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara is getting closer to the biggest fish of them all: Steve Cohen, founder of SAC Capital, the $14 billion hedge fund, who some regard as the most successful stock picker of his time. C.E.O.\u2019s have fallen, lives and companies have been upturned, but Cohen has thus far escaped. Bryan Burrough and Bethany McLean go deep inside Bharara\u2019s probe\u2014and SAC\u2019s org chart\u2014to reveal just how much blood is in Wall Street\u2019s waters.<\/p>\n

A favorite West Coast real estate syndicator is visiting. <\/strong><\/span>His <\/strong>idea is to \u201chost informal presentations to investors and friends\/contacts of existing investors.\u00a0 Our goal is to update existing and prospective investors on our strategies, our implementation, our view towards trends in the market, our most recent results, while also to find out what investor appetites are and what they hope to see from us going forward. We are going to do May 15 in Long Island,\u00a0 May 16 in NYC and May 17 in CT.\u201d<\/p>\n

He’s sent me a 15-page summary of his impressive deals — four of which I’m presently in. If you’d like the doc, and\/or an invitation to one of the presentations, email me or use the Contact form above. I’ll be at the New York presentation.<\/p>\n

\nHarry Newton who was with a friend last night who complained of recent chronic tiredness. I advised, “Please visit your cardiologist.” He demurred. Dumb. Please do. You shouldn’t be more tired than I am — and I’m 15 years his senior. I’m sick of losing my friends to preventable health issues — like heart atttacks and melanoma. Today the tabloids reported that Chris Christie, the New Jersey\u00a0 governor, secretly had a lap-band surgery to tackle his famous weight. Good on you. He could now be our next president.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
