Half Moon Capital is a private investment manager focused on deep value and special situations investments. It was founded in 2011 by Eric DeLamarter, and it manages a diversified long/short equity portfolio.
The company’s investment objective is to constantly generate attractive, uncorrelated absolute returns in order to achieve long-term capital appreciation. At the same time, the company invests a lot in risk management aiming to minimize capital loss risk.

By conducting a bottom-up approach managers are evaluating every position based on its qualities.
