are they? i think they were...but are they now? MSD doesnt act or behave like a hedge fund..its a structure more akin to a family office or private equity firm,,..

most media outlets covering sport think every sort of mutual fund is a hedge fund..

MSD website references their involvement as hedgefund managers. As do other sources particularly RE Fuhrman and his purchases of fine art.

fuhrman was..
this is a link to msd partners website..it describes what they do..it doesnt use the word hedge fund nor reference an investent strategy along those lines..

 
To put things into perspective, Abramovich is rich as F**k, however in relative terms to our potential new owners combined wealth he has to careful with his wealth as he only has $12.2 bn to play with.
To put things into further perspective. Abramovich is $12.2bn richer than all of us. Our potential new owners are more than twice as rich as abramovich so they are more rich compared to abramovich than abramovich is to us. Scary numbers :lol: :eek:

Shit, we're doomed ..... billionaires but no hedge fund.

Will this affect the trees at the AOL?
 
not saying your wrong but that seems a bit counter intuitive for these types
Even if they are in it to make money the only way to do that is have us in the premier league. To get the profit figures they’d need to gain anything worthwhile to them we’d need to be in the champions league. It’s a massive, massive stretch and I can’t see it happening but them being in it to make money isn’t a bad thing.
 
Was more making the point that if the price was £40m, it is only $49.1m, compared to five years ago when £40m would haven been $65.2m. If you thought the GBP/USD rate was going to increase in the future, its another reason to buy now.
Fair point.
 
In most circumstances, the only way to end up with a small fortune out of buying a football club is to start with a big fortune.

Making more money will be the last thing on the minds of these people imo.
I am sure there is a quote something like "the quickest way to become a millionaire, is to start off a billionaire and buy a football club"
 
irt does if they are investing other peopls money..not the own..

family offices think aout investments in a completely different way to hedge funds..how they think about safc is kind f imprtant..

You're over thinking every aspect of this despite having very little actual knowledge.

You'll dee yersel a mischief if you don't calm down.
 
Maybe you are about to be rewarded for the decades of emotion you have put in to your club!?
I’d like to think so mate. I’ve got so used to associating Sunderland with disappointment that should anything positive of this potential magnitude happen I won’t know what to do with myself.
 
mag bitterness aside... i'm asking a genuine question and looking for real answers

Not so long ago with the bank collapses, Bank of America was listed at just $11 a share...there’s no way that was it’s legitimate price. Now it’s at $27. Same for SAFC. There’s no way SAFC is worth 40 million. It’s probably worth triple that easy...there’s not a lot of invest opportunities at that level with that kind of return. I don’t know how much money they’ll dump into the club but I’m sure they are gonna protect that investment and will want it to reach its full potential?
