No reputable outlet has published a net worth for Bonawyn Eison, and the $6 million figure on older profile pages, including this one, has no source. He is Chief Investment Officer and Managing Partner of the investment firm Wynsource Partners and a regular contributor on CNBC's Fast Money. His earnings come from nearly two decades in trading and derivatives at firms including JPMorgan, Citadel Securities and XP Investments, plus private investments in real estate and private equity, according to his CNBC speaker biography.
What is Bonawyn Eison's net worth?
Forbes, Bloomberg and similar publications do not track him, and Wynsource Partners is a private firm that does not publish results. Wall Street compensation at the managing director level is not public for individuals, and his stakes in private deals are not disclosed. For those reasons this page no longer gives a figure.
What is on record about his finances comes from CNBC's own biography of him:
- At XP Investments he oversaw the North American institutional equity derivatives business, which handled several billion dollars in notional transaction value.
- As a private investor and limited partner he has taken part in real estate and private equity syndications backing assets with a combined market value above $1 billion. That is the size of the deals, not his personal stake.
- He helps oversee more than $275 million in endowment assets through nonprofit investment committees.
Yearly income
An earlier version of this page gave his income as $300,000 a year, or $25,000 a month. There is no source for that number, so it has been removed. His pay as a partner at Wynsource, his fees as a CNBC contributor and his returns on private deals are not public.
Career timeline
| Stage | Role |
|---|---|
| Early career | JPMorgan, managing a portfolio of financial services companies |
| Next | Options trader at Citadel Securities, running the energy portfolio |
| Later | Managing Director and Partner at XP Investments, head of North American institutional equity derivatives |
| Current | Chief Investment Officer and Managing Partner, Wynsource Partners |
CNBC describes his specialties as derivatives, public and private equity, trading and portfolio management. At Wynsource he also works as a strategic partner to investment sponsors, providing capital along with board and investment committee input, help with partnerships, and mezzanine financing.
The previous version of this page said he was a director at an emerging markets brokerage, Sunrise Brokers. We could not find a reliable source for that role and have removed it.
CNBC and media appearances
Eison is best known to the public as one of the regular traders on Fast Money, CNBC's hour-long evening markets show. The program is taped at the Nasdaq MarketSite in New York and airs at 5 p.m. Eastern, an hour after the stock market closes. Host Melissa Lee leads a panel of four Wall Street professionals who argue for or against particular stocks, sectors, options trades, commodities and ETFs; Wikipedia lists Eison among the show's recurring panelists alongside Guy Adami, Karen Finerman, Steve Grasso, Dan Nathan and Tim Seymour. The show grew out of a 2006 segment on CNBC's On the Money and has aired as its own program since January 2007. He also spoke at CNBC's Financial Advisor Summit in June 2022.
His market views are picked up by other outlets too. In January 2025, as the release of China's DeepSeek model shook AI stocks, he said on CNBC that artificial intelligence was not yet a strong enough driver for Apple, as reported by Yahoo Finance. His argument was that Apple spends less on AI infrastructure than the other megacap tech companies, which gives the shares some support, but that he saw no clear catalyst to push an already fully valued stock to a higher earnings multiple. In his words, "I don't think AI is a story yet."
Board and nonprofit roles
He chairs the investment committee on the board of the Thacher School, a California boarding school, and advises the investment committee of the Lasker Foundation, the medical research foundation. Between them, CNBC says, he helps oversee more than $275 million in endowment assets.
Education, wife and personal life
We could not find a reliable source for where he studied, and the earlier version of this page gave no verifiable details. The previous page also named a wife and listed a height of 180 cm; neither could be confirmed, so both were removed. His age is not published by a reliable source. We do not publish home addresses or phone numbers that appear on people-search sites.
