Newsletter Issue1

The Undergraduate Investment Club has decided to start a weekly financial newsletter. We feel that being up-to-date with the financial markets is very important to attaining a job or internship and for learning how the markets operate.  Besides market headlines and statistics we will include profiles of industry leaders, including hedge fund billionaires, and in the future will have interviews that shed light on the market and financial careers. This issue we profile two hedge fund managers, David Tepper (estimated net worth of $1.2 billion) and John Arnold (highest paid hedge fund manager of 2006 with an estimated income of $1.5-$2 billion).
