Lol at CEOs and hedge fund managers having 170+ IQs.
If that chart is right, the difference is only dramatic at the very highest categories, where there are only a few dozen people in the country. CEOs and finance people are obviously smart, but they're not MIT physicists or something. They probably come from the 120+ IQ category, where the M/F ratio isn't even 1.5. Yet males make up 95% of Fortune 500 CEOs.
So no, IQ likely isn't a significant factor.
That’s typically the way IQ distribution works. Relatively modest mean differences between groups exponentiate at the peripheries.
