This episode of Fill the Gap features Damanick Dantes, CMT, who discusses his adaptive, quantitative approach to portfolio management, emphasizing the importance of trend, momentum, and dispersion across global asset classes. Damanick shares insights from his entrepreneurial journey, including lessons learned at Babson College and experiences at firms like Fidelity and CoinDesk, which shaped his global perspective and investment philosophy. The conversation explores how his firm dynamically adjusts allocations—such as rotating between Bitcoin and gold—based on evolving correlations and volatility, while stress-testing models to suit different client needs.

We also discuss the challenges of investor education, the importance of clear communication, and the value of building strong client relationships rooted in discipline and transparency. Finally, we touch on current market themes, including global equity rotation, commodity trends, fixed income strategies, and the impact of central bank cycles, all within the context of maintaining a robust, rules-based investment process.

Fill the Gap, hosted by David Lundgren, CMT, CFA and Tyler Wood, CMT brings veteran market analysts and money managers onto a monthly podcast.
