Given that this is a compliance interview question, not a financial analyst interview question, I would address the significant issues, laws, and regulations surrounding market manipulation. Additionally, I'd probably ask the hedge fund manager his strategy, his purpose in making the announcement, and how his portfolio would be affected if his statement were to come true. I'd address the idea of "inevitability," and probably have him back away from bold or harsh words that almost sound like he's guaranteeing the direction of the market. I'd wonder who would be in attendance at this conference and what regulations are involved with a portfolio manager making a public appearance. I'd address any disclosures that would need to be made in conjunction with the public appearance. Less
