From Andrew Lo:

We lost a giant of modern finance today. I feel fortunate to have known @VicNiederhoffer, to have learned from him, and to have been inspired by his example. A finance scholar, trader, world-champion squash player, and endlessly curious intellectual, he was as generous and kind as he was brilliant. He will be deeply missed. RIP

    🙏 Om Shanti 🕊️

    I recently heard about Victor Niederhoffer, a legendary trader, and started researching his extraordinary journey. 📊📈

    A brilliant mind who experienced extraordinary success, devastating losses, resilience, and a remarkable comeback. 🎯

    His story is a powerful reminder that in markets:

    🧠 Intelligence is not enough.
    📊 A statistical edge is not enough.
    💰 Capital is not enough.
    🛡️ Survival comes first.

    His journey will remain a fascinating lesson for every serious trader. 🙏

    May his legacy continue to inspire and educate generations of traders. 🕯️📚
