Summary

Rob worked for Julian Robertson at Tiger Management in the mid 1990’s and managed money for the Soros family. He’s also a minority owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

He highlights the potential for Latin America to outperform Asia in the coming years and why he sees a huge opportunity in Argentina.
