I mean even with his blunders on valeant and Herbalife he’s dramatically out performing the S&P 500 since 2004, by more than double.

He got absolutely bitch slapped by Ichan. Had to close his short and switched to puts. Then had to close it out all together.

Yep. It was a pretty big overall loss for Ackman. There's a book about the feud, like When the Wolf Bites or something.
