Saturday at 06:18 PM3 days Companies | Shore Capital PartnersShore Capital Partners is a private equity firm investing in the microcap healthcare, business services, and industrial sectors.They look to be pretty well diversified...What's that saying about not putting all your eggs in one basket?For individual investors, better never to have more than 10-15% of investments in any one stock, crypto, paintings, collectibles, farmland, real estate, etc.

The exact percentage of Apollo's stake was not announced. Forbes' annual list of MLB franchise valuations listed the Yankees at $8.5 billion in March."In addition to the baseball team, Yankee Global Enterprises' assets include the YES Network and stakes in MLS club New York City FC and Italian soccer team AC Milan, all of which could benefit from the new money.Apollo Sports Capital is a branch of Apollo Global Management, a New York-based firm with nearly $1 trillion in assets under management.

1 hour ago1 hr I discussed my thoughts about Private Equity some time ago, which are pretty much in concert with Warren Buffet's.In discussing my thoughts I posted a University of Chicago Business Law Review Article: "The Dark Side of Private Equity"Personally, having gone through (personally and professionally) the stock market bubble in the early 2000's and the 2008 Mortgage bubble, my views on PEI, and in particular, PEI in Health Care and the Home Mortgage sectors have hardened. Those were not PEI related necessarily, but they were "bubblicious" like Ishbia's United Home Mortgage asset is proving to be.Regarding the Reinsdorf/Ishbia deal, at least as reported: https://archive.ph/ZcEvGThat deal struck me as a classic private equity/ leveraged buy-out. considering Ishbia's PEI promise to "pay-down debt" of the White Sox. Of course, leveraging debt is precisely what PEI do to gain leverage/control, manipulate valuation of assets, and ultimately make money, often at the cost of others.Meanwhile, I have no idea what White Sox debt Ishbia restructured and whether that restructured debt has done anything other than benefiting his own corporate/stock position.Regarding the reports that Ishbia is hell bent on moving the White Sox from their historical home, I think he should fvk off, fvk all the way off back to Michigan.Nothing he has done or reportedly done or proposed doing makes a stitch of sense to me. It's a high stakes fishing expedition. I recently read a post here suggestion a retractable roof stadium. Great idea but no, that kind of stadium would not fit on what is left of the "78" or the 47 acres across the canal that his PEI firm has a contingent deal to purchase. Of course he can sign another deal to add to the 47 acres or do whatever he wants. Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by tray
