Seth Tobias (April 8, 1963 – September 4, 2007) was an American hedge fund manager and financial commentator who made frequent appearances on the CNBC television programs Squawk Box and Kudlow & Company.

[1] He was the president of Circle T Partners, a company he founded in 1996 at age 32 after working for five years as portfolio manager and equity trader at JRO Associates.

[4] Tobias' career began by processing trades for a then-unknown portfolio manager named Jim Cramer, who went on to host "Mad Money."

Since Tobias had never used his pool, speculation amongst his closest friends and family led to a commonly held belief that his wife was responsible for his untimely death.

[6] A civil lawsuit ensued which was settled out of court where Filomena denied any wrongdoing and no formal admission of liability was made.
