Can you move from pods to activist?
Is there any way at all? Feel like knowing how a stock may trade would be useful for an activist shop. What do you guys think?

Its definitely doable, here are some of the non pod exits from the recent p72 Academy class:
1 x law school
1 x POTUS
1 x Onlyfans
1 x Elliot
Funny
Consulting/IB/PE background it’s probably not impossible. Otherwise hard no
Why hard no?
Skillset mismatch. No transaction xp, activist is much closer aligned to PE
depends on the activist. third point, corvex, jana, icahn, etc...yes. pershing, valueact...no.
I dont think pershing is in the activist game anymore
Why would u be in a pod if your interested in activist
Downgrade to go from good pod to activist fund ex Pershing, no?
“Downgrade”
dude are you 12
Not a pod guy but want to be one. Idk I agree with midwest - most of the activist funds don’t offer anything incremental from analyst/Pm perspective vs pods
