Today, I welcome Zachary Levitt to The Investing Secrets Podcast. Zach's path into investing started early and moved fast - soaking up the strategies of the world's great hedge fund managers in high school, launching a derivatives trading club at university that put him in the room with some of the top portfolio managers alive, running a biotech alpha-capture strategy by 21, and becoming one of the youngest hedge fund managers you'll ever hear of by 25. Today he's the CIO and Founder of Sixth Turn Capital, a capacity-constrained multi-manager fund built for high-net-worth, ultra-high-net-worth, and family office investors - a stable of uncorrelated portfolio managers, each an expert in their own narrow strategy, engineered to deliver smooth, consistent, risk-adjusted returns.

We kick off with Zach's origin story and how a college trading club turned into managing real capital before most people finished their degree. From there we get into the architecture of a multi-manager fund - how he vets and underwrites portfolio managers, why he pays each one only on their own sleeve, and why true diversification comes from uncorrelated strategies rather than simply owning more stocks. We close on where he sees the biggest opportunities heading into the second half of 2026, why now may be an opportune moment to protect against a market crash, and the growing shift toward alternatives.
