| Dan Fuss |
Fuss took home Morningstar's fixed income manager of the year for 2009 and continues to have the wind at his back as investors continue to seek safety and the bond market outperforms. Famous for sticking with a good routine (he reportedly awakes at 4:28 a.m. to catch the 6:06 a.m. train to the office). With five decades behind him he still believes a pencil and paper can be more useful than a computer. Part of a team that invests $150 billion for the Natixis-owned fund firm, he is reported to be a current buyer of Irish bonds even as rumors are that the Irish government may be forced to turn to other European nations for a financial hand.
Dr. David Krause, Marquette AIM program director
said, "Mr. Fuss will be joining us on Tuesday, January 25, 2011 at the AIM Forum. We are excited that Dan will be able to participate in the Forum this year - he is truly a legend in the world of fixed income investing. It will be interesting to hear his views of the U.S. and European economies. His visit will be one of the major highlights of the year for the AIM students."
