Paul McCulley Leaves PIMCO - "Mission Complete"
Just months after the departure of founder Bill Gross, PIMCO has lost another headline-maker:
- *PAUL MCCULLEY STEPS DOWN AS CHIEF ECONOMIST PIMCO
- *PIMCO PAUL MCCULLEY STEPS DOWN AS CHIEF ECONOMIST
- *MCCULLEY SAYS HE MAY DO THINGS IN THE ACADEMIC ARENA
Full Statement below:
PIMCO, a leading global investment management firm, announced today that Paul McCulley has stepped down from his role as Managing Director and Chief Economist, which he assumed in May 2014.
Commenting on Mr. McCulley's departure, Daniel Ivascyn, PIMCO's Group Chief Investment Officer, said: "Paul returned to PIMCO last May after being recruited by Bill Gross, with whom he had a close friendship and association for more than 20 years. We understand and respect Paul's decision to step down. He is a great friend of our firm and our people, and we wish him great happiness going forward." Mr. McCulley's last day at the firm will be February 28.
Said Mr. McCulley: "I accepted this position, as I said at the time, to work side-by-side with Bill Gross, as economic counselor, doing the three things that I love: think, write and speak macro. My mission here is complete. I will continue doing the things I love in other spaces, possibly in the academic arena. PIMCO will always be Camelot in my heart."

I thought woman and children were let off the Titanic first? Sheesh Bill, going to leave a lot of widows and orphans to swim in those icy waters there..
Actually, most of PIMCO's funds have performed quite well since Bill's departure...
b,b,but, that's Camelot, Arthur left, not?
Regardless of PIMCO itself, McCulley is a world class thinker. Always insightful and enjoyable work. What the investment guys did with his insights is a whole nother matter.
I did enjoy reading his wonkery
had to read slowly at times(the man's way over-educated than I), but that's why I enjoyed the exercise
Agreed. McCulley is an unreconstructed Keynesian and a very long term thinker. He was talking the "new normal" which is a long term period of growth below what we had seen in the past a very long time ago.
He also has more money sitting in his checking account than the vast majority of us will ever earn in our lifetimes...
Better look at the redemptions. Nasty, nasty, nasty....
Fuck it Dude, let's go bowling
>>Fuck it Dude, let's go bowling
Yeah, well. The Dude abides.
The Dude rules. Bowling it is. And drinking. I'm there.
Grub a dub grub, 3 men in a tub.
Obviously, you're not a golfer
It's nice to see that Sam Elliott finally got some real work.
First, Bill needs to trim that facial hair, the 70s are long gone. Then he needs to wash his pants, to remove the shoe stains put on the seat of his pants as he was booted out the door.
Since when does Kris Kristofferson work at PIMCO?
"I will now retire to my cabin in the woods to spend more time with my bear, Ben."
I will resign .... effective February 29 ! JE SUIS JUIF !
So basically, 'Black History Month' gets a bonus day every 4 years so we can watch the 'Pootie Tang' all day movie marathon.
Black History Month being February is Racist.
Because the blacks get the shortest and oddest (in that it changes every four years and thus is unreliable) month. Others have suggested that makes it appropriate opposite content.
But who am I to judge. Simply reporting on CA Progressive perspectives, enhancing your information set.
Well ~ if you factor in Groundhog Day, I guess they figure that the actual number of days is a float which could be exponentialized to the power of "n"
They wouldn't understand it.
Weep not for McCulley, but for all the unnamed lower-level Pimco-ites that are also being purged because of their support of, or their close ties to Bill Gross. I imagine McCulley's parachute for leaving has a few strands of barbarous relic running through it.
Hey, Great hair.
Was just reading about NSAs new field operative. Barbie :-) Sweet.

1. coin phrase "the new neutral"
2. collect $25 million for 1 year
3. waive flag saying "mission accomplished", then head back to the mountain
Isn't this the 2nd time he has left?
"I really mean it this time!"
Why not relax and just become a Malibu Hippie on the beach?
I am the dude. His dudeness. Whatever.

The Big Mcculley .
I enjoyed him in the Beatles.
Translation: "I've pillaged and stolen everything I can get my hands on and so it's time to leave; nothing more in the basket. Thanks Muppets!"

Translation, PIMCO will implode. Of course, noone could have foreseen it.

Always amazing to see The Big Lie being applied to the tiniest sideshows of statements - seems those speakers/writers are so used on it, they have massive diffculty not to employ it for once
Bruce Jenner is sooo jealous of Paul's hair. Bruce has to buy those extension thingies from the Koreans to get the same look...
