Synopsis
This book is supported by a wealth of real-world examples, both contemporary and historical, and true business stories and anecdotes from investor and former comedian Simon Kold. In this book, listeners will learn about:
● Elements of intense and durable competitive advantage such as scale economies, switching costs, network effects, brands, proprietary resources, and modest value extraction
● Methods to formulate falsifiable test statements and empirically test those predictions, rather than relying on heuristics or box-checking
Detailed, sophisticated, and highly actionable, On the Hunt for Great Companies is an essential for professional investors of all sizes, in all industries, in both public and private markets.
