Evan Tindell (Bireme Capital): The Psychology of Value Investing (Plus poker and tennis)

Evan Tindell runs Bireme Capital, a long/short value investment fund.

I loved this episode. We spent over an hour discussing:

• Investor psychology
• Shorting Costco
• Lessons from being a professional poker player
• Position sizing
• Betting big on META during its Hate Day
• SOTP valuation stories (Bollore & Vivendi)
• Japanese value stocks
• Allocating time

And more!

This was one of the most wide-ranging conversations I've had in a while, and I loved it.

Finally, a big thanks to our sponsors for making this episode happen.

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.

I highly recommend the site for those looking to start a stock-picking fund or just learning about how others have done it. 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!
