Fund managers that made short positions in Q1

[Deepdive]

Anyone know of any funds/managers that made short position bets in the last quarter.

 

I found the following:

1. Ackman/Pershing Square is an obvious one here with his CDS trade.

2. Universa Investments did 4,144%

3. Rhizome Partners bought a basket of 15-20% OTM puts that did 11.2x

4. Massif Capital bought 30% OTM puts with 90 days expirations that returned ~7x

 

If anyone has any others, please feel to share.
