Summary

First up, Dan McMurtrie. He and his partners founded Tyro Partners, a New York City-based hedge fund, at a time when hedge fund closings are much more common than emerging fund launches. Dan lists some of the most important things he's figured out on his journey. He also talks about how one of the most under-appreciated sources of alpha is being nice to people. Later on we bring in Rich Greenfield, one of the most widely followed and respected analysts in the technology, media and telecom (TMT) space on Wall Street. Michael Batnick and Josh Brown got a chance to talk to him about the launch of Disney+, the rise of over-the-top streaming apps like Netflix, why Roku is such a hot stock and what we can expect for the next generation of video launches. One thing Rich is certain of is that while there may be winners among streaming services, traditional broadcast TV is sure to be the biggest loser.
