The SEC filing told us that the fund dumped its entire slice of MoonLake. All 313,571 shares, gone without a trace. That position had made up about 2.6% of their total assets-a decent chunk, yes, but a drop in the cosmic ocean of investment risk. They weren’t just throwing away money; they were preserving what little remained. The average quarterly prices turned that stake into a lamentable $14.8 million-a tidy sum for a company that seemed to be holding onto faint hopes and fragile promises.

To understand the move, we need to briefly wander into the territory of MPM BioImpact’s quarterly filings-a necessary evil for any fund that wishes to remain on the radar of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In their November 14 submission, it was revealed that MPM BioImpact sold every last one of its shares in Crinetics Pharmaceuticals. The $12.3 million value attributed to this transaction was calculated based on quarterly average prices, a standard practice in the world of investing. The fund’s holdings in Crinetics represented 2.1% of their assets under management (AUM) in the previous quarter. No small feat, though perhaps not enough to alter the course of history.

On November 14, Think Investments LP filed with the SEC to reveal it had added Semtech to its portfolio. Semtech, a company with more technical jargon in its name than most of us have in our entire dictionary, now represents about 7.8% of the fund’s $58.6 million in investments. That’s a big chunk of money, though probably not enough to make a dent in Elon Musk’s coffee budget.

Well, darling, Think’s filing reveals they’ve acquired 793,100 shares as if collecting vintage cigarette cards-except these are worth more than a weekend in the Côte d’Azur. As they record, it’s merely normal trading-nothing as gauche as speculation-yet the sheer size hints at a quiet confidence in the company’s future, or perhaps a fondness for its recent performance. Being their twentieth reported position, it’s rather like adding a dashing new hat to an already impeccable wardrobe-subtle but significant.

The scene is no less grim in formal terms: a quarterly Form 13-F filed with the SEC, a document more about numbers than stories, revealed that Findell had emptied its coffers of Valaris entirely. An agile departure-full and uncompromising-leaving the offshore driller’s name in the dust. This act, measured in dollars and shares, signals not just a shrug, but a clear shift in vision-away from the heavy, resource-drunk machinery of offshore drilling toward promises of faster, shinier assets elsewhere. The move reflects more than numbers; it echoes the cautious retreat of those who sense the tides shifting-less certainty, more calculation.
