Summary

Last week, the episode was centered around a tool for evaluating potential investments based on the myriad factors impacting their current performance and future trajectories, a topic that our hosts dubbed “the weather” of a business. While having a handle on a company’s worth and a clear gauge on one’s own understanding are both vital in making investment decisions, what other factors can—or should—influence the process? The fundamental feeling of excitement or intrigue can be a divining rod in terms of pursuing investment opportunities, and though it can be easy to get caught up in the hype of compelling new prospect, it’s also important to remember that interest can be a powerful motivator when faced with a formidable research project. Join Phil and Danielle as they venture further into the grid of their Weather Matrix, and learn how to find your own sweet spot when it comes to investing your time into researching investments.
