Biography
With over 30 years of investing experience in both public and private markets, Danny Moses has built a reputation of integrity, inquisitiveness and skepticism that has aided him during his career. The book, and later the movie, The Big Short, chronicled a few of the people, including Danny, who saw the housing bubble forming in 2004 and figured out how to successfully navigate through and participate in one of the greatest trades in Wall Street history.
Shortly after the release of Michael Lewis’s The Big Short, in March 2010, the great “Flash Crash” occurred and Danny helped in the research efforts and was once again a character in a Michael Lewis book: Flash Boys (2014).
Danny understands how Wall Street “works” and his time as both an Institutional Broker and Hedge Fund Manager gave him a perspective from both sides of the fence. He understands the products that Wall Street creates and sells as well as the power Wall Street holds over Washington D.C. in helping create policy and oversight that really ends up in self-policing.
Since leaving the Hedge Fund business in 2017, Danny has been advising and investing in public as well as private companies in various industries, utilizing his understanding of how capital markets function and malfunction in times of stress. An entrepreneur at heart, Danny knows what it takes for companies to build a culture of honesty, inquisitiveness and skepticism that helps them navigate as they grow. Danny is also a financial news contributor to Scripps News as well as the host of the On The Tape podcast and co-creator of the What Are We Doing, Contrarians At The Gate newsletter on Substack.
