Citadel CEO Ken Griffin: Mamdani Has Made It Clear We Need To Double Down On Our Bet In Miami
Citadel CEO Ken Griffin at the Milken Institute Global Conference: “It’s unquestionably true that we made the right choice. And now, and now what the mayor of New York has made clear to my partners and principally my New York partners, my New York partners is that we need to double down on our bet in Miami because we want to be in a state that embraces, that embraces business, that embraces education, that embraces personal freedom and Liberty, and that embraces people having an opportunity to live the American dream.” Griffin also called Mamdani “creepy weird” for his focus on the billionaire’s Manhattan penthouse:
“It was just creepy and weird and actually frightening”
