What about his track record cannot be adequately explained by mundane insider trading?
Edit: Puzzled by the downvotes. I think it's entirely fair to ask whether Cohen is enough of an outlier that it requires a psychic explanation, even after accounting for the degree of success that can be reasonably attributed to luck and non-psychic skill (effects which other hedge fund managers are also subject to) plus the insider trading he's been involved in (which other hedge fund managers are not necessarily subject to).
In a world with a finite number of hedge fund managers, there is always going to be somebody who is the most successful out of the bunch, and that somebody is almost certainly going to appear to be an outlier even without a supernatural influence on their success. So before attributing anything to psychic powers, we first have to establish whether he's too successful to be accounted for by the non-psychic explanations. I genuinely don't know enough about Steve Cohen's track record to know whether he's that much of an outlier, and I'd appreciate some real information about the degree of his success rather than just downvoting.
