Greetings!

Forbes writer and host of the Contrarian Investor Podcast Nathaniel Baker decided to interview me on my investment views given that they represent a logical departure from typical investment group-think.

For those of you who don't have the time to read through all my (sometimes intense) newsletters, the podcast interview hopefully provides a nice, more breezy alternative which you can listen to at your leisure -- on a walk/run or while cleaning up around the house during the lockdown. It provides a good overview of many of the investment themes and perspectives I have given in my talks to the Harvard Club and have written about in my newsletters.

The main investment term we use but do not define is Exchange-Traded Funds, of which index funds are the most popular. ETFs are very widespread investment vehicles which you are likely to own in target date funds or your 401k.
Please contact me if you want to discuss more and how this applies to you.
 
Best regards,
Maya
