"" Blackhawk Partners is the most bad-ass investment firm on Wall Street which has a leader to match. In the brief time I've had the honor to work with Mr. Abdelnour, I always bring a notebook to capture all the insight and knowledge that he shares with no reservations. A modern day Gordon Gekko with an even sharper wit, not only does he execute in markets that others are shy to approach, he obliterates them. I look forward to continue learning from him and I'm eager to see what new ideas he'll put into motion"."
