Twelve months ago, TDM published a memo on the macro environment, predicting that the ‘mid-pandemic world of cheap money and crazy valuations’ would end up on the list of macro moments like the tech bubble, global financial crisis and European debt crisis. The memo warned that you can’t just own an amazing business regardless of valuation. Now, twelve months later, TDM have published a follow up memo. And we have one of the memo’s authors, Andy Simon, joining us to discuss it today. Andy Simon is a member of the investment team at TDM Growth Partners. TDM is a private investment firm that was founded in 2004 and has compounded client capital at over 25% per annum for 17 years.
