Apollo should be smart enough to know that you can't draw any conclusions from 1 month of market data (especially when there was a big, relevant IPO).

Right, but they're smart enough to know how to manipulate the market short term with such "research" and then take advantage of it, all without breaking the law.

I'm astoundingly unimpressed by the quality of this slide deck. There's no analysis except that crammed into slide titles, like it's designed to bombard a room full of analysts with so many graphs that they shut off their critical thinking. Could a freshman business student not make this? Could a freshman business student with an LLM not make something more convincing than this?

I agree with the headline, but this really feels like analysis-slop. It's only remarkable in terms of who is publicizing it.

Actually it's almost 2 months /s
