Closing my long $IAC short $MGM. No real progress on non-core asset sales. “Barry being Barry” means this could take a year+. Still long $IAC (but smaller size) bc I like the $mgm asset and I think it’s a coiled spring given the valuation + buyback rate at $mgm. @SumZero

Link to my @SumZero report on $IAC. thesis: on the 11/4 call BD said they would look to sell all non core assets within 6 months & “speculated” they could receive $1bn or $12.6 per share. Market valuing that at $0. You can also hedge out $mgm risk drive.google.com/file/d/1-n8VTu…

SumZero is currently facilitating a focused review of leveraged large-cap equity ideas with Mariner Investment Group. Select submissions will be reviewed directly by Mariner’s senior investment team, with finalists invited to present and discuss their work live. The review is time-bound and limited in scope. The mandate is intentionally narrow: high-conviction long or short equity ideas in U.S. or Western European companies with $3bn+ market capitalizations and 4.0x+ leverage, where capital structure, downside protection, and catalysts are central to the thesis. The current review cycle closes in two weeks. Total cash awards across finalists are $38,000, with additional opportunity for direct engagement with Mariner’s senior investment team. If you have a differentiated idea that fits the mandate, login to your SumZero account to pitch your thesis.

$LRN having a solid morning, up 20%+ This is an idea that @ASB_Partners put on our radar during the Top Stocks 2026 Investment Competition, sponsored by @AlphaSenseInc and one that has been available to all SumZero members since it was shared. Ultimately, this idea won the competition after multiple rounds of voting and a live stock pitch among the top 3 ideas ~2 weeks ago. For those that missed it, you can view those pitches with the link below $LRN, $IPCO, $DKNG. How we surfaced $LRN as the winner of the Top Stocks Competition: - Over the final month+ of 2025, we received 100+ high conviction ideas from across the SumZero network - From December 23 - 29, the broader community was given access to all submissions and the ability to vote - 1,000+ votes surfaced a top cohort of ideas that moved on to the Semifinals and were sent directly to an independent panel of 30+ judges (family offices, endowments, and senior investors from the community) - From that review, three ideas clearly separated themselves and had the opportunity to pitch live in front of our judges panel on January 15th, with other SumZero members in attendance Linked below are those pitches.

After reading about $ddi on @SumZero I made it a decent size position. It may be the cheapest stock I’ve ever seen. $440m market cap with $400m in cash. Ltm $139mm in FCF. So in theory they could pay a 90% dividend then buy back the rest of the stock with <4 month of FCF. Risks👇

Last week, P10 $PX CEO Luke Sarsfield joined SZ to discuss valuation, growth, and competing in private markets – a candid fireside with Evercore ISI on SumZero. Covers PE, private credit, M&A, and how management thinks about the stock today. Full interview: youtu.be/5VgCwK_B72E
