Welcome!

My name is Jerry Diao, the founder of Richard Toad, serving the equity research profession. I have been featured on Bloomberg. I covered enterprise software in sell-side equity research, then moved on to a generalist research analyst role at a California-based start-up hedge fund. Before equity research, I was an actuary and a quantitative analyst (without winning a national math competition in China though.)
