Bio
Chris Pia spent his college holidays interning at COMEX, the
commodities exchange in New York. He met Louis Bacon when they were both at Shearson in the late 80s and this partnership progressed with Pia joining Bacon when Moore Capital was founded.
Between 1996 and 2008, Pia is said to have sextupled investors money: that is, multiplied it by a factor of seven. He is responsible for AUM of over $1 billion. In late 2008, at the climax of the credit crisis, Pia teamed up with ex-Tudor manager, Joe Niciforo, and the pair managed to pull in $800 million during what were generally very challenging conditions for asset raising. Late last year, Pia was bullish on oil and gold, and bearish the dollar – but his views could have changed since then. Pia trades with a medium term time horizon of between weeks and months. He has continued with Moore’s strict stop loss policy of 3% at the position level.
