Chris Barto: Mitek Systems $MITK, Swing Trading w/ Options, & Fiducia Invest

This week we're stoked to have Chris Barto join The Hive. Chris is a former investment analyst at a boutique RIA in Pittsburgh and current founder of Fiducia Investment Research LLC. Chris runs a concentrated, transparent, and in-depth research service covering high-quality businesses with durable competitive advantages. The site is perfect for people who are interested in learning about different businesses, read market commentary, as well as develop a place to interact with other investors who are willing to put in the time to read and learn.

During our hour-long chat, Chris and I discuss the absence of valuation in today's investing framework, how Chris developed his own investment philosophy, an overview of Mitek Systems $MITK, and his short-term options swing trading system.
