    #7 - Practice 6: Be Strategically Agnostic Like Rupert Mitchell

    "You have to, create your own library of Alexandria. And the great thing is you can do it topic by topic. Someone sends you a book recommendation? Great. Buy it on Kindle, stick it in the Notebook [LM], right? You'll get there eventually, but it's part of your searchable database from today because, I've taken it on recommendation from someone I trust." -Rupert Mitchell, Blind Squirrel Macro -- This week, Chase interviews his brain doppelgänger and good friend, Rupert Mitchell, of Blind Squirrel Macro. Rupert began his finance career on the sell side of Investment Banking (pick one, he worked there) and also ran the equity syndicate desk in Hong Kong. Rupert began Blind Squirrel Macro as a way to connect with people about investing. His apt tag line is “Macro for Civilians” and this conversation stays on brand. Enjoy all of Rupert’s thoughts on space, his thankfulness for the power of a targeted ETF, and most importantly, how to approach A.I. agnostically. We must have Rupert back, because we barely scratched the surface in this episode! -- Timestamps: (00:01) – Intro (04:03) – Why Rupert loves the market (06:52) – How Rupert structures his trade ideas (12:19) – ETF providers need some love (14:37) – Early wins can be dangerous (16:46) – Living in Australia gives you an edge   (23:40) – Will there ever be a Bloomberg [terminal] killer?

    #6 - Practice 5: Use Scenario Analysis like Jacob Shapiro

    “So, geopolitics really is more about defining possibilities and getting ready for any possibility so that if the crazy thing happens, ah, I've thought about it before. And I know what I'm going to do when that happens, rather than I'm going to perfectly be able to identify the scenario.” - Jacob Shapiro, Cognitive Investments -- This week’s episode features a future regular guest of Taylor Made Macro, Jacob Shapiro, from Cognitive Investments. Jacob is a true neutral geopolitical analyst that approaches the world and the markets with humility and back-breaking labor to arrive at his conclusions. Chase and Jacob discuss current events in global elections, the importance of finding original news sources, paying attention to news that seems strange, and implementing a ranking system for the avalanche of information one needs to get through to do this work each day. This helps you with the most important takeaway of the episode: scenario planning. Thinking about what could happen helps you prepare if it does happen. -- Timestamps: (00:00) – Intro (01:38) – Charity: William and Anne Monroe Shapiro Endowment (02:16) – Mexican Elections: Shienbaum is a Scientist (08:13) – Modi’s Age and Charisma Have Their Limits (11:29) – South Africa’s Apartheid History Overshadows the Geopolitical Potential (14:39) – Individual Leaders Can Have a Great Amount of Agency in the Right Moment, with the Right Circumstances (17:54) – Milei’s Economic Changes Could be Trading Short-Term Pain for Long-Term Meaningful Change (25:23) – Mexican, Brazilian, and Saudi Arabian ETFs Are (as of recording) Mispriced.

    #5 - Practice 4: Research as if You’ll Argue Both Sides Like Warren Pies

    “I can generally, take an issue and argue both sides...ultimately you've got to weigh all the evidence and be honest with yourself and come up with the right answer… the ability to take an issue, see both sides, argue both sides, build a case for both sides…and that causes you to just dig and read and turn over stones and understand underlying processes and things like that.” - Warren Pies, 3Fourteen Research -- This episode features Warren Pies of 3Fourteen Research. Chase and Warren dig deep into construction data, Warren’s process, models, and why he finds construction so important for macro. Warren teaches us how to research trades like a lawyer, but also how important saying, “I don’t know” is for your credibility…unless you’re at a cocktail party. He argues that sticking to what you know and picking high quality businesses will keep you alive in the markets. We also learned that Gothic Western Fiction is an actual genre (!?). Enjoy this meeting of the minds and learn how to balance granularity with accuracy. -- Timestamps: (00:00) – Intro & Plugs (01:20) – Warren’s Charity: BridgeALife (02:57) – Warren’s Framework on Housing, Construction, and Construction Employment (16:07) – Argue Both Sides of a Trade Like a Lawyer (18:49) – A Behavioral Edge Creates an Informational Edge (19:37) – Preempt a Bad Trade Through Research and Process (21:26) – Learn How To Say, “I Don’t Know” Unless You’re at a Cocktail Party (23:59) – Stick to Investing in What You Know & Pick Quality Businesses (27:45) –Speed Read Until AI Can Do it For You (31:13)— Exercise Your Nervous System to Help Connect the Dots (33:36) – Having to Rescind a Prediction Made Publicly is Tough (38:45) – Blood Meridian – Gothic Western Fiction??

    #4 - Practice 3: Find Inflections in Cyclical Businesses Undergoing Secular Change Like Kuppy

    “But I'm buying stuff where, revenue’s growing rapidly. I'm buying stuff where value creation is happening rapidly. I'm buying, you know, growth momentum names. I’m buying them before anyone else realizes that they’re growth momentum names...they're still valued like uh, value stocks. If you look at this sort of stuff we're doing, we call it--, I call it inflection investing for lack of a better word, but they tend to be industries that have destroyed a lot of capital that have bored people to death, that give people PTSD.” -Kuppy, Praetorian Capital -- Kuppy has been a great friend to Chase since he started PMR. This week they discuss position sizing, what inflection investing really means, how to spot the convergence of cyclical and secular tailwinds, and most importantly, how getting away from the markets allows you to express your trades more effectively. Kuppy's approach to investing is bold, well researched, and decisive. We also discussed how he decided to stop missing stuff with the inception of Kuppy’s Event Driven Monitor (KEDM). -- Timestamps: (00:00) - Intro (01:46) – Kuppy is a value investor that makes money (02:58) – Charity of Choice: Sugar Pine Foundation (04:09) – Roman History isn’t a real major   (06:03) – Inflection investing is momentum investing with a value overlay (09:28) – Middleman companies provide the best value?

    #3 - Practice 2: Sideline Your Ego Like Kevin Muir

    "When trading, are you more interested in being right, or are you more interested in making money? And I ultimately just look at it like ‘I just want to make money, and…make the best returns I can’, and so therefore I need to stay open to different ideas.” - Kevin Muir -- This week’s episode features another one of Chase’s greatest mentors, Kevin Muir. Kevin is a prototype of the kind of investor we’re trying to highlight on this podcast. He’s a markets scientist who isn’t afraid to explore new ideas and find himself wrong after that process.
