Medallion also had a few external investors until 2010ish, who could be a source for some of the numbers. IIRC, Bill Ziemba published their returns in the mid 2000s sometime.

Also, what Princeton Alpha offshoots? IIRC, Princeton Alpha was a PDT spinoff that closed due to poor performance. Maybe you mean Princeton/Newport offshoots?

Yes, I meant Newport. The Thorpe folks and such.

Just out of curiosity, are there any successful Princeton/Newport/Thorpe offshoots aside from the usual one in Irvine?

Just the one in Irvine I think. Apparently they kept most of their staff from P/NP.
