When Robert Hagstrom and Chris Mayer sit down together, the conversation goes far beyond stock picking. Join them, along with Matt Zeigler and Bogumil Baranowski to explore how investors think, how language shapes decision making, and why many of the debates dominating today’s markets miss the deeper point. Drawing on ideas from general semantics, mental models, and long-term capital compounding, the discussion reframes market concentration, AI, valuation, and risk through a more durable lens built for long-horizon investors.
Topics covered in this episode

• Why high valuation multiples are not automatically a sign of overvaluation

• What return on invested capital really tells you about long-term compounding

• The difference between describing a business and understanding the business itself

• How language, labels, and mental shortcuts create overconfidence in investing
