Looks like Pimpco is gonna get it in the teeth!
I pulled all my clients out of Crosses fund when he got kicked out of the club. All the other advisors I know are following suit now.
How much is Bill Gross worth?

When we see you at The Little Nell, the Hot Toddies are on us.
It's Hot Toddies. But I kinda like your spelling better. Who would ever turn down an offer of Hot Totties? Like hot titties with a little bit of an English accent.
A "mile high welcome", does that mean they tag teamed him on the plane ride back to HQ?

Janus is a Vail regular. Aspen not so much.
< sigh > if only all the state pension funds would follow suit, it's still a "debt is money" system doc...
For a true Mile High Welcome I was expecting to see Gross being passed a doobie
He has gone to pot enough already.
Pimco's Total Return Fund was sucking wind well belfore Gross made that stupid move on Treasuries a few years back. He's been so-so at best even factoring that big mistake out.
Haven't touched a Pimco fund since then. Asset bloat was the #1 concern at first. Then #1 became Gross' behavior. Just too errattic for a guy who's supposed to be watching over a trillion dollars of other people's money.
Now that he's gone I'm actually more inclined to give them a second look. But they need to get their expense ratios down or do something that makes it look like they give a shit about their investors again. Making some decent returns would be a good start.
yep ... good riddance
avg at best last few years
Billy Ray Valentine coming off the streets as replacement likely could do no worse (probably better)
Agreed, but I'll take a look once the bleeding stops.
Golden rule taught to every jr.Analyst by one well known Chairman:
The loudest in the room is the weakest, or least confident. Assume he will tap out first. Make sure he does, this is a Marathon.
Bill has about 4 months to clock out a hard return, not exactly a great runway.
Janus on the other hand never recovered from the dot com scandals, and true to form they are well known for being one of the last guys into anything on the street.
In short (sic) Bill has his work cut out, building up a respectable brand (again) and doing it against the grain of market bond flows & street perceptions. This is not 1970, which makes having an investment "guru" a tougher sell these days.
On a plus note, Janus has allegedly no internal controls on posting at ZH. So maybe the old comment crew will start to roll back out of Bridgewater & the ilk should insight per post uptick.
I have always worried when so called professional (money managers, doctors, politicians, bureaucrats, etc.) notify the world of their intents and deepest thoughts through faceplant and titter.
Says something about Character and Egocentricity
Yeah, it kind of cancels their bid to be considered as other than just another member of the herd.
Bend me over Bill, now I can tell my grandkids I was the first one to be banged on that infamous yoga mat and on the aisle of an airplane to boot!
Janus....the Roman of god of transitions.....the god of gates.
These Masters of the Universe are indeed the gatekeeper.
Funny though.....Janus is a two-faced god. Kind of like Goldman Sachs. They tell the muppets one thing.....and then do just the opposite.
Coin of the realm. Face was on actual coins. "Talk peace...always war."
Gross is worth $2 billion, his crystal ball has spidery cracks in it and Gross is spiraling down toward senility and insanity. He should have retired from PIMCO, he has lost his touch. Once Janus finds out in six months that the acounts that followed Gross to Janus are leaving, expect Gross to get the heave-ho. Assuming Gross does not poison the waters sooner by engaging in scream-outs with the Janus support staff.
Mile high club!! Does that mean Bill is gonna have sex with these 2 guys in the washroom of an airline during a flight to Hong Kong?
Another one trick pony stumbles.
meaning he's now in the Janus "mile high" club ? (royally screwed on his plane flight over)
Gross didn't get the pink tie memo!

Cooter
I guess he doesn't give a damn about the K. Fund extorion ring.
Am I the only one who immediately thought "blowjob"?
Circle jerk in 1st class seating area?
The S--- is getting deep. Even the titans are scrambling. Won't be long till the market takes a dump.
Markets..... Lol.... Do you have aby idea how many times I've heard your stament over that last 5 years? Yeah me neither.... too many timees to count.
That may be the first time I've ever written about the market. But hey, "I resemble that remark".
You say that one more time and you are going to the naughty corner!
thieves and suckers
Hmmm ... Janus ... the Two-Faced God ... seems fitting Gross would end up there ...
And who on earth would trust their money in a company call that?!
Janus looks into the past AND the future. I'm sure their reference to an occult demon is purely coincidental...
I always think of a two-faced motherfucker whenever I hear that name.
Same people who bought "Ali Baba".
Did Bill and Dick join the club?
Duh, there is no Mile High Club without a Dick.
Unles it says on the invitation, "bring your own dildo."
I thought Bill was joining this Janus...that would be a mile high welcome for sure...

Let me guess, people on this site must believe its all Obama's fault that Gross left Pimco..
Yes, that's certainly a top-of-mind thought for most ZH'ers.
Who peed in your Cheerios this morning?
It was the weather.
Everyone here knows it.
Do you always make up shit to whine about, or is this a new avenue for you?
Either way, you suck at it.
I rarely comment on here, but if i had followed all the negativity spewed on this site every day, i would have lost tons of money in the market over the past few years. Facts are facts. "applicable"...
The Obama comment was kind of an aside, but rest assured something else is bound to be his fault..
I think your brainless comment is Obama's fault.
re Bill gets a Mile High Welcome from dick....
Bill, how could you be so gross!
Hopefully Gross had a long layover in the Dallas airport.
I love it when I get a blow job on a private jet
Whether he's lost it or not, he must be so pleased to be able to sit himself down in his trading office for 6-10 hours everyday with just the markets to work out. Mo bullshit metings, no crappy interviews, no one bothering him etc.
Folks, it can't be done any other way, if you want the chance to earn superior results you have to put the screen time in with (almost) zero distractions.
Insider trading can also produce superior results.
LOL, what's this "earn" shit?
"If" you have an intellect, use it.
A member? You think I actually want to join this scumatorium? The only reason I'm here is because I might buy it! [/Al Czervik]
Notice how he moved to a state where pot is legal. He probably has a scrip for it in Cali. Looks like a pothead to me.
Well, Gross is going to attract some serious money to this fund. No more shackles I guess as this fund is small and he can do as he wants! Also, he can sleep I guess without the US Treasury blackmailing him. hahaha.

You know, I always hoped that, some day, the "J" on the Janus building's sign would go out, or someone would shoot it out.
Anus
i wonder if they are going to rehire mohammed el-arian just to piss off gross.
i bet mohammed is feeling awfully sore about this gross anal leakage.
