A free high-level business class on Chinese Tech businesses and their stocks

The headline says it all. I’m learning so much.

AndrewStotz ,

Jeff's frameworks are awesome.

I’m impressed with how Jeff can dig deep into topics related to business strategy. His understanding of China and Chinese business it’s so valuable. If you’re looking for a podcast to help you understand what’s going on and what’s working (and what’s not) in China and in Asia this podcast is the place to be.
I especially like it when he Talks about his various frameworks and how the strategy of a particular company fits into that framework.
