Our guest today is Mark Yusko, Founder, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of Morgan Creek Capital Management, which manages close to $2 billion. He is also the Managing Partner of Morgan Creek Digital Assets. Prior to founding Morgan Creek, he was CIO and Founder of UNC Management Company (UNCMC), the Endowment investment office for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

 

In this episode we discuss his transition from running UNC’s endowment to starting Morgan Creek with the help of Julian Robertson, why his recent road trip across the country leads him to believe the U.S. recovery is not going well, the benefits from using Twitter, and his elevator pitch to advisors on why bitcoin belongs in everyone’s portfolio.

 

Our local co-host today is Chris Cannon, CFA, Chief Investment Officer at FirsTrust and board member for CFA Society of Orlando. Please enjoy the episode.
