Professional Experience:
- Chris DeMuth Jr founded Rangeley Capital in 2007 in order to exploit the seams between other hedge funds’ mandates. Such situations include broken deals, volatile corporate transactions, and securities that are hard to hedge. Rangeley often enters positions with binary DC risks where spreads have blown out more than is justified by analyzable exposures. The goal is to buy at a substantial discount to the value of probability-weighted outcomes.
