Episode notes
Vet Track Records By Downside Behavior
- Evaluate GP track records by participation and behavior during downturns, not just headline returns.
- Ask about downside episodes, what they gave back to banks, and how they handled stress.
Diversify Across Single-Asset Deals
- Trinity favors diversification across deals for investor longevity and risk control.
- They pool high-net-worth investors into many single-asset deals rather than concentrating capital.
Be Patient During Choppy Markets
- Don't rush to buy or sell; wait for clearer signs of market bottom or recovery.
- Stay patient because bid-ask spreads remain wide and timing matters for both buyers and sellers.
