DESCRIPTION:
Under Bill Gross' s astute leadership, PIMCO' s Total Return Fund has outperformed every other fund in its class, leaving Gross to manage the largest amount of fixed-income money on the planet. From there, the book covers his founding of the Pacific Investment ManagementCompany (PIMCO), a leading institutional money manager with over $356 billion in assets under management. It is no wonder that Gross has achieved near-mythic status among investors, with bond experts hanging on his every word to predict which way the credit markets will go, earning him the title of " Bond King."

Yes, I knew that Gross was the acknowledged king of the bond market, the Warren Buffet of the fixed-income set. But I had little appreciation for the scope or scale of his accomplishments or the methodology behind them. Thanks to this entertaining book from Timothy Middleton, a former colleague of mine at Dow.

Not to mention he spells Ben Bernanke's last name as Barnanke for some reason. I learned virtually nothing from this book, in no way do I have a better understanding of bonds or any usable strategies after reading this book.. alvin said math and persistence pays. good insight into parts of bill gross's life and development. his religious growth and family life are detailed.Bill's childhood was not explained well.
