Judd Arnold: TSA, US Government, and a Fund Analyst Walk Into A Bar
I'm excited to share this week's podcast with Judd Arnold. This is Judd's third appearance on Value Hive and he never disappoints.
This week we're doing something completely different. We're dissecting one of Judd's past off-market deals that involves the TSA, The US Government, tons of patent litigation, and an 60+ year old inventor who made something obvious that wasn't so obvious.
It's a great Christmas/Holiday break from my current content of investor letters and individual stock ideas. I hope you enjoy it.
Please note that neither Judd Arnold nor myself are legal professionals or attorneys and we DO NOT play ones on the internet. Nothing you listen to is investment or legal advice.
Also, we couldn't do this show without our sponsors!

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.
