This episode is also brought to you by Quartr. Quartr is revolutionizing the way investors interact with IR departments, listen to conference calls, and engage in investment research.

Finally, we're proud to announce our newest sponsor, Tegus! Tegus has the world’s largest collection of instantly available interviews on all the public and private companies you care about. Tegus actually makes primary research fun and effortless, too. Instead of weeks and months, you can learn a new industry or company in hours, and all from those that know it best.

Since joining, I spend nearly all my time reading Tegus calls on existing holdings and new ideas. And I know you will too. So if you’re interested, head on over to tegus.co/valuehive for a free trial to see for yourself.

We're also excited to partner with MITIMCo, the investment office of MIT. In order to help the emerging manager community more broadly, they created emergingmanagers.org, a website for emerging manager stockpickers. For those looking to start a stock-picking fund, or those just looking to learn about how others have done it, I highly recommend the site. You’ll find essays and interviews by successful emerging managers, service providers used by MIT's own managers, essays MITIMCo has written for emerging stock-pickers, and more. Check them out at mitimco.org/global-investor today!
