How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

It's just harder.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

People have added value at that level, but it's not as consistent and it's a brain drain.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

You spend a lot of time doing it and you could be spending your time doing something else in the portfolio.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

You're hitting on a key point of good portfolio construction.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

So whether we talk about the alpha pool, they're picking stocks long and short.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

So they're already picking winners and losers and doing that.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

They're also picking different strategies within the multi-strats, as you said.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

So that's a layer of what I call dynamic management.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

I don't have to do it tactical.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

They're doing it.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

The other place that we do that is in the multi-strat credit guys, right?

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

They're being dynamic, moving money around in the credit markets.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

I don't have to try to figure out, do I want to be in triple C's in high yield?

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

Do I need to be in double B's?

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

Where do I need to be?

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

We're not trying to figure that out.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

We're outsourcing that.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

And that's how we think about being dynamic in the portfolio.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

And we think it's better than building a tactical overlay.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E334: Texas Tech CIO: How We Find Asymmetric Bets

I'd rather have my guys spend their time on finding the next really good manager in a strategy that we think has a lot of opportunity than thinking about how to shift it around.
