Listen Later

David Booth, the founder and Chairman of Dimensional Funds, on how he and a group of future Nobel Prize winners came together at the University of Chicago in the late 1960’s and 70’s and revolutionized the investing world by applying data, for the first time, to quantify the real performance of the stock market, and to shine a glaring spotlight on the way Wall Street used to work. In the process, they created Dimensional Funds - one of the most successful investing firms in history.
