Kiril Sokoloff - Lessons From One Of The Greatest Investors Of Our Time
This week I have the great honor of welcoming the distinguished investor Kiril Sokoloff, CEO & Founder of 13D which he started back in 1983.
Kiril is an original thinker who has achieved phenomenal success over his decades of investing, often by going against the consensus. He is also a big advocate of thematic investing and has said “Over the last 40 years I don’t think we missed a single major technological transformation”.
In the late 1970s, he correctly anticipated an inflationary blow-off due to the fall of the Shah in Iran. In the early 1980s, he foresaw a period of disinflation and an ensuing takeover boom that nobody was prepared for. His firm became the expert in 13D filings and between 1983 and 1986, 175 of his firm’s recommendations were taken over. He then understood the great opportunity China in 1992 represented and co-founded the first pure Asian hedge fund during a period when the Hang Seng rose from 4900 to 12000. This was followed among over achievements by investing in internet and e-commerce companies in the 90s pre dot com crash and Oil in 2002 when it was only $20 dollars, riding the trend to over $140 at its peak in June 2008.
In this interview, we discuss the current macro environment and the intricacies of his investment strategy including theories on Anomalies and Contagion plus the implications of the new world order and rethinking supply chains.
This is one of my favorite interviews. Kiril is one of the few great investors of our time.

Chris Camillo - Turning $20k Into $30 Million | Re-post
Today we revisit one of our most popular interviews to date. In October 2020 we spoke to Chris Camillo, Founder of Dumb Money and an investor that had turned $20k into over $30 million.
Having led and founded a series of successful tech and software companies, in 2018 Chris - and his two friends Dave Hanson and Jordan McLain - gave up their day job to invest their own money, full-time. Not only have they already recorded extraordinary success, but Chris and co. have also pioneered a unique investment strategy, or what they call ‘Social Arbitrage’.
Chris hasn’t stopped there, Dumb Money have chronicled every high - and low - on their eponymous YouTube channel, now a mainstay among individual investors. The channel had 52,000 subscribers when we last spoke, now their audience is more than double that size.
Chris gives us a real insight into his strategy, but not only that, he highlights several burgeoning trends that on reflection almost 2 years later, prove to be prescient investment calls. Enjoy!

Edwin Dorsey - Shorting Bad Businesses, Investigating Care.com & Dorsey the ‘Anti-Zuckerberg’
16 Dec 2021
01:02:02
Edwin Dorsey is Founder of The Bear Cave, a short-focused newsletter that investigates and uncovers ‘Bad businesses’.
Edwin’s passion for investing began in third grade, and when his grandmother funded an E-Trade account for him whilst still in elementary school, he was hooked. Whilst at Stanford, Dorsey shone a spotlight on the nefarious Care.com, having instigated an international investigation, that culminated with a Wallstreet Journal front page, a C-suite overhaul, and IAC’s ultimate acquisition of Care.com in early 2020.
Edwin relives that story and many more like it, including the equally awe-inspiring tale of Root Insurance’s unsavoury practices, and subsequent demise. We discuss how to identify these bad businesses and what red flags investors can look out for, before concluding by talking Twitter, and Edwin’s super-fandom of both Dorsey and the company’s monetisation potential. Enjoy!

Perth Tolle - Emerging Markets: How to Invest in Freedom & Why That Excludes China
03 Sep 2020
00:33:55
Today I was hugely lucky to speak to Perth Tolle, founder of Life + Liberty Indexes. First of all, Perth spoke to us from Houston, Texas, an area recently hit by Hurricane Laura. Luckily, Houston avoided any severe impact, but unfortunately, the weather did play havoc with Perth’s internet connection, which does mean some of the interview’s audio isn’t quite as clear as usual. But, after a herculean effort from our editors, I really hope you enjoy the episode.
And for a quick introduction, having worked as a private banker for one of the biggest asset managers in the world, Fidelity Investments, 10 years later Perth decided to found her own firm in 2014. Life & Liberty indexes is a purveyor of indices & ETFs designed to produce long-term outperformance in emerging markets while observing the freedom and human rights of the subjects within those nations. Frequently quoted throughout financial media, including numerous Bloomberg interviews, Perth was named one of the Ten to Watch in 2020 by Wealth Management Magazine.

00:59:15
Five years on from a now legendary short of Valeant Pharmaceuticals, a bet that brought a $90 billion company to its knees - and which has since been documented in the critically acclaimed Netflix series, Dirty Money - I’m catching up with Fahmi Quadir, the 29 year-old short-seller shaking up Wall Street. 2020 brings with it a new foe, Wirecard, a German payments company currently embroiled in a market manipulation probe, and one that’s been firmly in Quadir’s crosshairs since the start of 2018.

Jens Nordvig - Japan’s Debt Crisis: A Global Economic Contagion?
Jens Nordvig is Founder & CEO of Exante Data and MarketReader. An alumnus of Goldman Sachs, Bridgewater Associates, and Nomura, we dig into Jens’ career to understand the world-renowned culture at Ray Dalio’s Bridgewater, and how those experiences have informed his unique investment approach.
Today’s focus is Japan, as the country’s finance minister warns Japan’s finances have become increasingly precarious, to an almost “unprecedented degree”, we first look back, to understand how the world’s third-largest economy has amassed the heaviest debt burden in the industrialised world.
Next, Jens’ covers Japan’s monetary policy, commenting on a historic move last December, and the BOJ’s decision to maintain the policy balance rate last week. Our focus on Japan ends with an explanation of the ripple effect this situation is having on equity and currency markets around the world. We finish with Jens’ ‘next big idea’, an underreported economic trend he reckons listeners should keep a close eye on, in 2023.
