Episode 33 - The Dismal Scientist

This episode is about an economist named Dwyer... it’s unclear why hedge funds have in-house economists, since everything a hedge fund manager does is predicated on making asymmetric decisions and if all the economists in the world were laid end to end, they still wouldn’t reach a conclusion. Furthermore, not only are economists a rare breed on Wall Street, the economist in question we are about to talk about was a Jew from Ireland that we used to call “The Leprechaun”.
