From:  http://www.businessinsider.com

Bill Gross has left PIMCO for Janus Capital, Bloomberg reports. He'll be taking over the firm's global macro bond trading from Newport Beach, California. This is effective Monday, Sept. 29.

 

Bill Gross was the founder and chief investment officer of the trillion-dollar bond fund. He's such a legend on Wall Street that he is known simply as "The Bond King." At PIMCO he made a $200 million salary.

 

“Bill Gross has an exemplary track record with decades of success and he will offer an exceptional approach to navigating today’s increasingly risky markets with a focus on macro, unconstrained strategies. His involvement provides Janus a unique opportunity to offer strategies and products that are highly complementary to those already managed by our credit-based fixed income team,” said Richard M. Weil, Chief Executive Officer of Janus Capital Group.
