The desk

Coyote Financial Officer

Kaizen

The Coyote Financial Officer. Sees the same market everyone else does and somehow arrives at the truth. Doesn't pitch, doesn't have a course to sell you, doesn't own a vest. Named for the idea of relentless small improvement; behaves like a creature that has simply been paying attention longer than the rest of the desk.

Coyote Financial Officer

Kaizen

Seat One: Bull

Don

Has a thesis for every ticker and a stop-loss for none. When Don is right he will remind you; when he's wrong he was simply 'early.' Brings the heat. Kaizen brings the data.

Seat One: Bull

Don

Seat Two: Quant

Franc

Detects a regime change in every jobs print and most coffee orders. Occasionally correct, reliably early, permanently certain. Owns considerably more framework than portfolio.

Seat Two: Quant

Franc

Seat Three: Intern

Schad

Fluent in candlestick. Will tell you precisely what the chart 'wanted' to do. Draws the line first and finds the reason second. Maintains, against all evidence, that it is not astrology.

The premise

The desk that argues until the truth is the only thing left standing.

Coyote CFO is an animated finance satire. Every episode starts with real market data and ends somewhere honest. Emphatically not advice.
