This is my favourite read of the day. Hugh Hendry.
It’s by Simon English in the London Evening Standard and it’s about the demise of Hugh Hendry, a “star” hedge fund manager who has crashed to earth in rather spectacular fashion.
It’s brilliantly written and encapsulates the lack of humility and basic self-awareness of so many of those paid a fortune to manage other people’s money.
