Rob Simone

Ishmael Asad recently joined Hedgeye Risk Management as a Digital Assets Analyst, contributing to the launch of a new research vertical focused on digital assets. He completed his degree in Economics at the University at Buffalo.

Before joining Hedgeye, Ishmael shared his enthusiasm for digital assets by presenting at universities, creating NFTs, and writing freelance articles about his interests in the space. 

His passion for emerging technologies and financial innovation makes him a valuable addition to the Hedgeye team. Ishmael is eager to contribute to Hedgeye's cutting-edge research and looks forward to collaborating with colleagues to drive the firm's digital assets initiatives forward.

 Rob has nearly 15 years of sell-side and corporate experience within the REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) sector. Prior to joining Hedgeye, Rob spent over 2 years in business development and investor relations at Paramount Group (PGRE), a REIT which owns and manages office buildings in New York and San Francisco. 

Prior to that, Rob spent 3 years at Evercore ISI where he served as the lead office, industrial and self-storage REIT analyst on the #1/2 Institutional Investor-ranked REIT team. Before joining Evercore ISI, Rob held various real estate-focused sell-side and investment banking roles. 

Rob will be leading Hedgeye's equity research platform covering the trillion dollars + in publicly traded REITs. His research coverage will address all key subsectors of REITs including: residential, industrial, self-storage and specialty.
