"Big Short" Legend Danny Moses on Dimon, Private Credit, Prediction Markets

View descriptionShare

Money manager Danny Moses, immortalized in The Big Short, said last week that private credit and private equity firms’ push into retail products reminds him of the years preceding the subprime mortgage crisis. The comments, made during a panel at the iConnections Global Alts conference in Miami Beach, Florida, came as business development companies — funds that pool direct loans — face a surge in redemptions amid growing concerns over lending standards. Private capital firms have begun to more aggressively court individual investors in recent years, fueling worries that a wave of withdrawals from mom-and-pop savers could strain a market built on hard-to-sell assets.

Moses, the Founder of Moses Ventures, LLC, expands on his credit market commentary and delves into the business of prediction markets, while also reacting to expansive remarks from JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon about the investing environment amid renewed military conflict in the Middle East. Danny speaks with Carol Massar, Tim Stenovec and Bloomberg News Equities Reporter Alexandra Semenova on Bloomberg Businessweek Daily.
