"liquidity is often missing when it is needed the most." Great takeaway. Your channel is great, man.

The name of the fund is so ironical. Being called 'Long-term capital management' and the same time using such a big leverage is funny.

16:40 The term you're looking for is "correlation convergence". During market fat tail events, especially on the downside, asset managers are dealing with many customers withdrawing funds and thus forcing asset managers to sell without much discretion. This is why many long-only strategies are so risky. During normal markets, the correlations are helpful are seemingly rock solid but during a 2008 style crash, it disappears.

Outstanding presentation.

Great work!!

The point made about decreasing marginal utility is such a good point btw. When the economy is on a high people probably leverage waaaay to much (even their homes) to gain just a few percent of unrealized gains in their savings portfolio.

24:53 you're 100% incorrect here. The world of finance learnt a lot from this "event". The most significant part of this story (which you didn't mention) is the fact that this was the first "too big to fail" financial bailout. It is widely recognised as an enabler for what happened in subsequent years. It showed the world of finance that they can gamble as much as they want and the taxpayer will save their asses. And that there will never be real consequences because "too bit to fail".

@@TheSwedishInvestor yes but it's not all about money, it was more about the call to action and reassurance. To quote the "almighty" wikipedia (which quotes a reputable source)" "Some industry officials said that Federal Reserve Bank of New York involvement in the rescue, however benign, would encourage large financial institutions to assume more risk, in the belief that the Federal Reserve would intervene on their behalf in the event of trouble. Federal Reserve Bank of New York actions raised concerns among some market observers that it could create moral hazard since even though the Fed had not directly injected capital, its use of moral suasion to encourage creditor involvement emphasized its interest in supporting the financial system .[40]"

Hi, overall I find the video is very well-made and researched. I've got a few nitpicks. 1) Many people leverage up on illiquid investments, chief of which being real estate. I think the takeaway should rather be that if you are leveraged up on illiquid bets make sure you have other sources of income or a cash pool with uncorrelated tail risks (ie, don't leverage up on your own company, don't leverage up your whole portfolio without a sufficiently sizeable and secure cash pool etc...). 2) Hedge funds are not necessarily market neutral, actually most of them are not. Arbitrage is also a necessary component of efficient markets. 3) Investing in assets with limited upside risk isn't always bad. That's the whole point of investing in high yield bonds and shorting options (negative gamma). You just need robust risk management and use another risk measure than volatility. Expected Shortfall (CVaR) or Maximum Draw-Down (MDD) are much better at capturing fat tails if you use high quality historical data. 4) The biggest issue with LTCM that is relatable to the average investor was that they assumed that the correlations of their positions were stable, when they converged to 1 in times of crisis. You talked about this, but I think it was too brief and your explanation with business owners was too vague in my opinion and too far from reality. I think it was a missed opportunity to talk about how "risk-off" events work and why safe-haven assets hedge such events.

These guys trades (LTCM) were not that sophisticated (book). They lost track of their firms leverage. The Econ studs were disconnected from the trader/key guys at LTCM. A few things hit which were not even black swan events and their leverage went hyperbolic in one direction. I thought the book was outstanding.

Thank you for the video. I study for my Master's Degree (economics with an emphasis on finance and finance mathematics). We use Black Scholes in every finance and finance mathematics class.

I am toying with the idea of dropping out because I cannot stand it anymore.

Above all else, LTCM just sounds like a bad business model. A company like Berkshire invests in real businesses that are undervalued and offer a compelling product/service. LTCM just plays financial shenanigans using leverage (which is pretty much the only way to go from billions to zero in such a short time span). It should have been an obvious avoid from day 1 or at least not something you put all your eggs into.

The capital management turned out to be not so long term...

Does Wall Street still have these faulty assumptions?
