Brian Hunter, a Canadian former natural gas trader, rose to prominence at the now defunct Amaranth Advisors hedge fund. With over $9 billion in assets under its management, Amaranth collapsed in 2006 following Hunter’s failed bet on the natural gas futures market. Hunter’s risky gamble led to significant losses for the fund, ultimately resulting in its downfall. Despite the controversial end to his career at Amaranth, Hunter made a significant impact on the financial world as a skilled trader with a penchant for high-stakes investments.
