Kyle Macintyre is an Investment Specialist at Firetrail. He and the team left Macquarie Bank to start their own fund – to identify and invest in quality Australian shares that are unloved by the market. We talk about the examples of Telstra (ASX:TLS) and Downer EDI (ASX:DOW). They are great case studies to show what goes into a thorough valuation of a company. It's a serious dive into fundamental analysis.

"THE BIGGEST DECISION YOU MAKE WHEN YOU INVEST IN A COMPANY IS THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR THAT COMPANY".

When you buy a property you do a lot of research into what you think it's worth. The price you pay determines all of the numbers into the future representing your capital gain and your income. It's the same when you buy a share. The price you pay determines everything about that investment.

I really enjoyed chatting with Kyle and his very honest and open views on what makes a great stock pick for the long term.
