Boaz Weinstein: How to Handle Market Volatility | SALT Talks #57

Boaz Weinstein is the Founder & Chief Investment Officer of Saba Capital Management, a $3.2 billion credit hedge fund based in New York City. Saba was founded in 2009 as a liftout of the Deutsche Bank proprietary credit trading group he started in 1998. Boaz leads a team of 33 professionals, with the senior members having worked together for 15 years. As a credit investor whose formative years were spent in volatile periods, Boaz was far more interested in finding ways to capture moments where you can own volatility. Prior to COVID, credit markets were ultra stable, even in equity markets. The team at Saba examined market volatility and found opportunities when credit spreads were overvalued, leading to gains in early and mid-2020. ————————————————————————— To learn more about this episode, including podcast transcripts and show notes, visit salt.org/talks Moderated by Anthony Scaramucci.
