The government shutdown has now surpassed 20 days – and counting. With the longest partial shutdown lasting 35 days, the clock is ticking to get the budget passed before reaching that record.
The markets have yet to respond to the shutdown, and Grays Peak Capital founder Scott Stevens, formerly of SAC Capital, now Point72, and Coatue, shared some reasons why in a recent interview. He also explained how the repeated feuding between the two parties and repeated shutdowns are creating a new ecosystem in the private markets.
According to the firm’s website “Grays Peak Capital is a global alternative investments firm currently managing assets across public and private markets for a diverse investor base of high-net worth individuals, family offices and institutions”.
