A new hedge fund launching next year hopes to be the 'farm team' for the $5 trillion industry

Riptide Advisors, Errickson's new multimanager firm that's set to start trading on January 1, was created to address the industry's biggest challenge: a shortage of talented, experienced portfolio managers. The new manager's focus, Errickson said, is to be "basically a seeding vehicle" that will let unproven but promising talent - think an analyst at a big firm like Millennium who has never managed a book on their own - run small portfolios of up to $20 million with the goal to add capital and responsibilities over time by graduating to the firm's larger funds.

Media Buying Briefing: Overheard at the Media Buying Summit: AI can be your best friend or worst enemy

Besides the very obvious impact on the search discipline - zero click search is a reality that's gotten everyone scrambling to retrofit their online content to be recognized by LLMs - we heard agency folk tell of over reliance on the tools, and a face-value acceptance of information and data that in actuality requires human oversight to ensure accuracy. Then there's the toll it's taking by removing learning and training opportunities for entry-level talent as AI handles rote functions and menial tasks.
