David Busch, CFA®
Chief Investment Officer
David Busch didn't get into finance to talk about finance. He got in to make it make sense. As CIO at Trajan Wealth, he's managed multi-billion-dollar portfolios across fixed income, equities, alternatives, and derivatives — and spent equal energy making sure the people on the other end of those decisions understood what was happening and why. A regular guest on NYSE TV, he's had plenty of practice saying complicated things clearly under pressure. On 5Q/IQ he brings that same instinct: no jargon, no posturing, just the straight answer your money situation actually deserves.Read David's Story >>>
