Jeffrey Gundlach

Jeffrey Gundlach was born on October 30, 1959 in Los Angeles, California, United States, is CEO, DoubleLine Capital. Bond-trader extraordinaire Jeffrey Gundlach spent decades helping Los Angeles' TCW build its fixed-income business only to be kicked out in 2009. That prompted him to start cross-town rival DoubleLine Capital with 40 other former employees, amidst a barrage of sordid allegations and lawsuits. With financial backing from earlier TCW refugees Howard Marks and Bruce Karch of Oaktree Capital, DoubleLine has become the fastest-growing mutual fund start-up in history and now has over $100 billion under management. Buffalo native Gundlach studied math and philosophy at Dartmouth and then Yale, but gave up the pursuit of a doctorate in 1985 to be the drummer in a punk rock band and then answered a classified ad to get into investments. Gundlach is known for his arrogance and bold calls--having correctly predicted the housing crash in 2007 and the decline of interest rates in 2013 and 2014. He is passionate about modern art with an extensive collection of works by artists including Warhol, Mondrian and Rauschenberg.

2012

Gundlach's Santa Monica home was burgled in his absence in September 2012 and several pieces of art were taken along with some wine, five designer watches, cash and a prized 2010 red Porsche Carrera 4S. Some days after the theft, Gundlach added to a $200,000 "overall" reward a $1 million reward for the Piet Mondrian painting amongst the missing and a $500,000 reward for the Jasper Johns. The total value of the stolen property was put at $10 million at the time. Within weeks, a tip led to the recovery of the art works and arrests of suspects in the theft. The rewards—with the one for the Mondrian being termed a record for a single art work—were being said to have played a role in the recovery though no determination of payment had been made. The Porsche was still missing.
