Show Notes

Greg Interviews Stephen Feid, Founder of Bedford Global Capital Strategies. Stephen grew up in Ohio, went to a boarding school in Princeton New Jersey before studying at Trinity College in Hartford. 

Stephen worked for a short time at an advertising agency in NYC, before getting pulled into the wall street craze. He got licensed and immediately became an institutional trader for Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette. Stephen was put on the block trading desk for hedge funds and institutions where he met his first client, Steven A Cohen.

Over time Stephen left the firm to become head trader for a hedge fund focused on Healthcare stocks called Forstmann Partners LP. Forstmann was a long short, dollar neutral fund, and Stephen built many trading dashboards and models during his time there.

After leaving, Stephen built a consulting practice, providing health care industry research and technical dashboards for other hedge funds. Stephen now resides in Miami, and continues to look for alpha in niche alternative investments.
