<li>Vision Fund's public portfolio dropped $18.6bn (-24%) in Q4. China concerns grabbed headlines but it was Asian names (Coupang, Grab) that drove losses</li>
<li>Public investments held at the parent level fell 41% (-$1.3bn), led by SoFi (-$862mn), Lemonade (-$189mn) and THG (-$147mn) </li>
<li>We expect that Softbank will also need to write down private investments although it is not clear just how far private valuations have tracked public changes</li>
