David Murrin
Founder
David has been a macro trader since 1986, first working at JPM on its first Prop desk and then as a founder and CIO of his Macro and Emerging Market Fund, Emergent Asset Management, for over 20 years. During that time, he has had a remarkable track record of predicting major market declines and profiting extensively from them. Short at the highs and then running with the decline in the 1998 Asian Crisis, the 2001 dot com bubble, the 2003 Argentine crisis, the 2007 bear market, the flash crash of 2011, last but not least the February 2020 pandemic risk-off crisis. However, his work not only accurately predicts these big dislocations and but also then focuses on the safe periods to then extract risk-off Alpha. Subscribing to Global Forecaster is effectively akin to having access to an outsourced but very experienced CIO, with a uniquely successful track record.
