We created “The Call” to simulate the decision-making process of a world-class hedge fund.

  • How do the sharpest investors analyze their favorite long and short ideas?
  • What’s the debate like between analyst and portfolio manager?

In keeping with that theme, below are video highlights from this week’s editions of “The Call” we wanted to call to your attention. We’ve also transcribed brief excerpts to speed up your idea generation process.

Enjoy and have a great weekend.
