Lord Abbett's Raging Bull Dies


Jack McCarthy, a former Lord Abbett PM who worked at the firm for 32 years, died at age 85 after a "short illness," on Jan. 23, according to an obituary published in Bloomberg.

The World War II veteran began at the firm as a research analyst in 1960, eventually becoming CIO and the co-managing partner. He also PMed the Affiliated Fund.

“He was known as a great optimist, a raging bull, a contrarian, always looking for outward signs of change in the markets,” said his son Stephen McCarthy, a senior vice president at KCG Capital Advisors.

Lord Abbett placed an obituary in the New York Times last week.
