William Danoff — The Lone Wolf
“This Man has the Most Tinely Tuned Survival Instincts”
William Danoff
William is a counter-punching growth investor with an uncanny knack for getting in and out
before the crowd and turning a handsome profit on the way.
He's a stock-picker extraordinaire with a healthy aversion to risk. Not only does he have a great nose
for growth potential but he also knows how to keep volatility well under control so he eliminates wild ups and downs along the way.
Few managers have done a better job than he did with tech stocks. He cut way back on
them in early 2001 and then picked up enough to make good returns when they rebounded in
2003. Good instincts.
Danoff is a vice president and portfolio manager with Fidelity Investments who he
joined in 1986 as a securities analyst and portfolio manager. Prior to that he was a
research analyst for Furman Selz in New York City, covering advertising stocks and
special situations.
Danoff was president of the Boston Retail Analysts Society from 1987 to 1989.
