Mate, every medium-sized company and above has an investment by PE and VC. You can literally pull any company with above $10 mm EBITDA and there will be no more than two degrees of separation between them and Steve Cohen/any other big financiier

Then this reduces to that old adage that, if you win big in the lottery, you need to put every significant law firm in your area on retainer, so that local people can't find a lawyer to sue you. If you just put a bit of money in every up-and-coming technology company, then you get to pull their strings when you need a favor. Very smart.

That's literally the point.

But by that logic anything that a company ever does can be pinned on Steve Cohen.

If he was so powerful his returns wouldn't be that shit. Last year was good for P72 but other than that they're extremely mediocre ever since they stopped insider trading lol
