Since founding his eponymous hedge fund in 2001, Dmitry Balyasny has earned a reputation as a risk taker. He chair’s Balyasny Asset Management’s (BAM) investment committee, and oversees the delivery of consistent, alpha-driven returns. In its Q3 13F filing, BAM reported over $14.5 billion in managed securities – and had made some interesting moves in the semiconductor industry. Interesting because Balyasny has built his strategy on outperforming the broader market indexes, but the chip stocks have underperformed of late. The question raised is, does BAM see something the rest of us do not?
