In the Q2 2021 investor letter of Carillon Tower Advisers, the fund mentioned Rush Street Interactive, Inc. (NYSE: RSI) and discussed its stance on the firm.

Here is what Carillon Tower Advisers has to say about Rush Street Interactive, Inc. in its Q2 2021 investor letter:
"Rush Street Interactive is an online casino (iGaming) and sports gambling company. Despite a rather strong and upbeat quarterly report, the stock lagged the broader market during the period. Rush Street is ramping up investment in new jurisdictions as they open up for legalized iGaming, and the company expects this to continue as new states come online. Given the expected rising interest rate environment and the intermediate-term financial losses, the stock has underperformed."

Hedge funds’ reputation as shrewd investors has been tarnished in the last decade as their hedged returns couldn’t keep up with the unhedged returns of the market indices. Our research has shown that hedge funds’ small-cap stock picks managed to beat the market by double digits annually between 1999 and 2016, but the margin of outperformance has been declining in recent years. Nevertheless, we were still able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that outperformed the S&P 500 ETFs by 115 percentage points since March 2017 (see the details here). We were also able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that underperformed the market by 10 percentage points annually between 2006 and 2017. Interestingly the margin of underperformance of these stocks has been increasing in recent years. Investors who are long the market and short these stocks would have returned more than 27% annually between 2015 and 2017. We have been tracking and sharing the list of these stocks since February 2017 in our quarterly newsletter.
