  • Private Equity in the 2000S 1 Private Equity in the 2000S
    Private equity in the 2000s 1 Private equity in the 2000s Private equity in the 2000s relates to one of the major periods in the history of private equity and venture capital. Within the broader private equity industry, two distinct sub-industries, leveraged buyouts and venture capital experienced growth along parallel although interrelated tracks. The development of the private equity and venture capital asset classes has occurred through a series of boom and bust cycles since the middle of the 20th century. As the 20th century ended, so, too, did the dot-com bubble and the tremendous growth in venture capital that had marked the previous five years. In the wake of the collapse of the dot-com bubble, a new "Golden Age" of private equity ensued, as leveraged buyouts reach unparalleled size and the private equity firms achieved new levels of scale and institutionalization, exemplified by the initial public offering of the Blackstone Group in 2007. Bursting the Internet Bubble and the private equity crash (2000–2003) The Nasdaq crash and technology slump that started in March 2000 shook virtually the entire venture capital industry as valuations for startup technology companies collapsed. Over the next two years, many venture firms had been forced to write-off large proportions of their investments and many funds were significantly "under water" (the values of the fund's investments were below the amount of capital invested). Venture capital investors sought to reduce size of commitments they had made to venture capital funds and in numerous instances, investors sought to unload existing commitments for cents on the dollar in the secondary market.

Ambac, In this new era of the stock market being driven by exchange- Fannie Mae preferred stock, Blackstone, OneMain traded funds (or “ETFs”) and momentum, we think stocks with Financial, and SunTrust were top contributors to individually good investment cases get driven to levels where they our performance. are mispriced when they are included in a sector or industry that is out-of-favor with stock market investors. Dear Gator Financial Partner: We are providing you with Gator Financial Partners, LLC’s (the “Fund” or “GFP”) Q3 2019 investor letter. This letter reviews the Fund’s investment performance for the third quarter of 2019, discusses the opportunity we see in regional banks, analyses our investment in Western Alliance Bancorporation, and discusses the Fund’s current net exposure and positioning by sub-sector. REVIEW OF Q3 2019 PERFORMANCE For the third quarter of 2019, we outperformed the Financials sector benchmark and the overall market. The Fund gained 3.45% in this quarter. Ambac, Fannie Mae preferred stock, Blackstone, OneMain Financial, and SunTrust were top contributors to our performance. The largest detractors were Sallie Mae, UBS, Zions Bancorporation, Syncora, and NMI Holdings. Western Alliance Bancorporation was added as a new position to our portfolio (read our analysis later in this letter). We sold our position in The Carlyle Group and sold half of our position in Blackstone.
