[REPLAY] Shrubbery Capital: What 15 Years In Hedge Funds Teaches You


Listen Later

I came down with a mad cold this week and couldn't record a podcast. I don't think you want to hear voice any more nasaly than it already is.  

Anyways, this week I'm releasing a Replay of one of our most popular episodes ever featuring The Shrub (or Shrubbery Capital). 

We had a lot to cover on this conversation. We dive into Shrub’s background, working for event driven funds and family offices, his recycling investment thesis, structuring a trade, why we should we use stop losses and technical analysis, and how we can seamlessly transition into new industries and take what we learned before from other places and apply them to new esoteric ideas.

If you like what you heard, please follow Shrub on Twitter @agnostoxxx

    Mitimco

    This episode is brought to you by MIT Investment Management Company, also known as MITIMCo, the investment office of MIT. Each year, MITIMCo invests in a handful of new emerging managers who it believes can earn exceptional long-term returns in support of MIT's mission. To help the emerging manager community more broadly, they created emergingmanagers.org, a website for emerging manager stockpickers.

    For those looking to start a stock-picking fund or just looking to learn about how others have done it, I highly recommend the site. You'll find essays and interviews by successful emerging managers, service providers used by MIT's own managers, essays MITIMCo has written for emerging managers and more!

    Tegus

    Tegus has the world’s largest collection of instantly available interviews on all the public and private companies you care about. Tegus actually makes primary research fun and effortless, too. Instead of weeks and months, you can learn a new industry or company in hours, and all from those that know it best.

    I spend nearly all my time reading Tegus calls on existing holdings and new ideas. And I know you will too. So if you’re interested, head on over to tegus.co/valuehive for a free trial to see for yourself.
