Among small retail investors, following what billionaire hedge fund managers are doing is a popular strategy. While it's not perfect, it has several advantages, among them that it allows you to piggyback on some of the expensive research done by the largest actively managed funds in the world. However, there are some caveats to this strategy. One billionaire whom I follow is David Tepper, who founded and runs Appaloosa Management. He has a great track record of success, so seeing that he reduced his stakes in Nvidia (NVDA +3.04%) and Amazon (AMZN 0.73%) last quarter was a head-scratcher, as these two stocks have been long-term winners. Does he have information that we don't? Or is there something else going on here? We're looking at old information Investors only get a snapshot that shows what moves hedge fund managers have made in a given quarter 45 days or so after that quarter ends. So, if you're trying to follow a fund manager who trades in and out of positions frequently, the strategy of taking your cues from their quarterly filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission isn't going to work. To make this method work, one needs to apply it to investors with a longer mindset, like Tepper. Information about what investments these fund managers hold as of the end of each quarter is made available to the public via a Form 13F, but if, for example, Tepper sold shares on the first trading day of the fourth quarter, Oct. 1, we could be making decisions based on information that's at this point five months old. So, investors must consider all of the events that have happened in the context of Tepper selling shares of Amazon and Nvidia.

In the unassuming, dusty lanes of the Nepali city of Damak, an unprecedented political showdown is unfolding. Pitting an old political heavyweight against a rapper-turned-politician with a penchant for dark sunglasses and sharp suits, the battle is one that could completely reshape the country’s politics. As Nepal heads into its most gripping election in years, at the forefront stands Balendra Shah, the 35-year-old known simply as Balen. He rose to fame as a popular rapper whose songs criticised the ruling elite, before pivoting to politics and winning a resounding victory to become the mayor of Kathmandu in May 2022. Yet it was after Nepal witnessed the bloodiest day of protest in recent history – when a gen-Z uprising last September against corruption and a social media ban was responded to with police brutality and live fire across the country – that Balen emerged as a nationally popular and unifying figure, particularly among a Nepali youth widely enraged at a political system they feel is broken and unrepresentative. The protests and ensuing violence left more than 70 dead and quickly brought down the communist government of the veteran prime minister KP Oli Sharma, which had long been dogged by allegations of corruption, nepotism and elitism. Balen was the favoured choice by gen-Z leaders to step in as interim leader but he declined, opting to wait and fight it out at the ballot box. “As mayor, Balen showed he could transform governance,” said Parbat Basnet, a 24-year-old business graduate and one of the leaders of the gen-Z uprising in Damak, which was also met with police firing. “He could have accepted an unelected position of power after the protests but instead he chose the democratic path. He wants to defeat corrupt leaders through the ballot box so that both leaders and voters change their mindset.” To many in Nepal – particularly the 46% of the population who are below the age of 24 – this week’s polls are a crucial test of whether the frustrations and...
