MP3•Episode home

In this episode of the Derivative podcast, we're hanging out with Bob Elliott, co-founder of Unlimited Funds. Bob used to work ata small shop you may have heard of… Bridgewater, working his way from (nearly) the mail room to Ray Dalio’s right hand man. And now he's doing something pretty interesting - he's figured out how to systematically replicate what hedge funds do and package it into ETFs that regular investors can actually access.

We dive into Bob's journey from the hedge fund world to building financial technology, and he walks us through how his team studies and recreates these sophisticated investment strategies. Bob shares his take on what's happening in the economy right now, how he reads market dynamics, and the nuts and bolts of understanding complex investment approaches.

It's a really solid conversation whether you're already into investing or just curious about how this whole world works. Bob has some thoughtful insights on how alternative investments are evolving and becoming more accessible to everyday people. SEND IT!
