Wayne Himelsein: The Human Behind the Hedge Fund

Wayne Himelsein is a hedge fund manager, President, and Chief Investment Officer at Logica Capital Advisers. Beyond that Wayne is a 25-year veteran in the trading space, and we're talking about hedge funds, his quantitative investment strategies, and even his own non-profit, Informed-by-Nature.  On this episode we're covering the oddity of a volatility trader living somewhere where there is no volatility (in the weather), reading the world’s longest book, hoping this is the big one when your car is in midair, J-Curve the rapper, and overpaying by 1000% for out of the money options. Make sure to follow Wayne on Twitter and LinkedIn, and check out the Logica Capital Advisers and Informed-By-Nature.  Don't forget to subscribe to The Derivative, and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn, and sign-up for our blog digest.  Disclaimer: Due to industry regulations hosts and participants will not discuss any company funds on this podcast.
