Jason Shapiro interviews Christian Siva-Jothy who is a veteran #macro #trader with over 30 years of experience. Christian has an impressive resume where he started at Citibank (1987 - 1991) as Forward #forex trader, short-dated cable & proprietary Interest rate trader. Then he went on to Goldman Sachs ( 1991 - 2005) as Partner, Global Head of Proprietary Trading, FICC, (1995), Pre IPO Partner 1998. His last stop before he started to trade his own money was Semper Macro (2005 - 2010) as Managing Partner & Owner of the hedge fund with over $1.25 billion in AUM. Now he runs CSJ Capital (2011 - present) which is a Family Office and he trades my own money).
Jason and Christian discuss lessons learned from years of experience, the current state of the markets and why they might be in trouble. Christian thinks his generation is the lucky one as he is unsure about the future of the markets which the continued printing of money supply and now with interest rates higher than they have been in a while.
Thanks,

Hey Jason, thanks for the interview! Also props for the subtitles, it is very pleasant to watch the interview this way. Greetings from Belgium and have a good week!
Outstanding interview, and, coupled with your retweet yesterday from @JerdTrades, I really like the concepts raised around dealing with stress, knowing your personality, developing discipline, and following a proven process. Just great reinforcement of some key elements which can’t be hammered home enough. Bravo!
