From all of us at Simple but Not Easy and Morningstar Investment Management, Happy Thanksgiving! If you’re in a mood to give thanks—or just want to hear others do so—you might check out Episodes 23 and 24, in which a passel of our guests share what they were thankful for this time last year, or something they’d be thankful to see in the future.

Or, here we rebroadcast Episode 16, a conversation with Daniel Needham about value investing and why we take a valuation-driven investing approach. We were reminded of this episode after reading a recent article in the Financial Times by one of our favorite market commentators, Michael Mauboussin.

In this episode, Needham, president and global chief investment officer at Morningstar Investment Management, shares his views on value investing and the way his team uses a valuation-driven approach to multi-asset investing.

As Charlie Munger has famously said, “All intelligent investment is value investment because why would you want to buy something which wasn’t worth as much as you were paying for it, and who wouldn’t like buying something for less than it’s worth?" Needham describes how we aim to do this in an asset allocation and portfolio construction context.
