MUSEUM NEWS
THE TICKER
On October 3, the Museum co-hosted
its fourth event this year with the Ford-
ham University Gabelli Center for Global
Security Analysis. Howard Marks, one of
the most successful Wall Street investors
of all time, spoke to a sold-out audience
of Museum members and Gabelli Center
faculty and alumni about his new book,
Mastering the Market Cycle: Getting the
Odds on Your Side.
The program was part of the Museum’s
highly-acclaimed Evening Lecture Series,
and it was live streamed in partnership
with the CFA Society of New York. The
program was presented in a conversation
format, with Bloomberg Television’s Erik
Schatzker conducting the interview.
Howard Marks is the co-chairman and
co-founder of Oaktree Capital Manage-
ment, a Los Angeles-based investment
firm with over $100 billion in assets under
management. He provided practical
insight and analysis on how to under-
stand, track and react to the ups and
downs of the stock market, including
the hidden logic in carefully pinpointing
market trends so that investors have the
opportunity to improve their results. He
also stressed the importance of carefully
studying past market cycles, as well as the
role that fundamental psychological influ-
ences play in investing.
The video of this program can be viewed
