Sam subsequently returned to the Weiss Group twice — first as an intern to help support the Weiss Ratings models, and, most recently, as an investment analyst specializing in natural resources and cryptocurrencies. His prior equity research has also included reports for asset managers in the fields of biotech, healthcare, plus immuno- and gene-therapy companies.
