15 predictions · 8 assertions · 23 opinions · 26 insights · 2 disclosures · 1 what if · every statement was checked. The predictions and assertions are the 23 claims: statements the public record can support or contradict. 6 are resolved, 2 are not yet assessed, and 15 name no date, number or outcome precise enough to check. Everything else (opinions, insights, what ifs, disclosures) can never be settled by the record, so it carries no assessment.

Their most notable supported claim

Prediction Held up
Giannini: A Broad Distressed Debt Cycle Will Not Materialize
“There's not going to be a distress cycle. Sorry, there'll be some distress deals that are interesting, I'm sure, but you sort of had this period where, oh my gosh, things are going bad, let's raise a distress debt fund, and they still are trying, but just tell…”

Expressed certainty vs assessment result

none yet certainty 1
none yet certainty 2
50% certainty 3
90% certainty 4
none yet certainty 5

weighted support: a fully supported claim counts one, a partly supported claim counts half. Each filled bar is clickable and opens exactly those claims; "none yet" means nothing said at that certainty level has resolved yet

How they sound: not measured why? →

We measure speaking style by listening to the audio itself, and a fair number needs at least 2,000 words from one person on tape we have measured. There is too little of Mario Giannini on measured tape to publish a rate. This says nothing about how they speak.

Insight
Giannini: Private markets shifted from funds of funds to bespoke mandates
“The market used to be dominated by funds of funds, and that was not at all customized. You just all were the same. You went in a fund of funds, and that's what you got. That's not where the world is today.”
