My guest on the show today is Tyler Hardt, the Senior Portfolio Manager at Seagate Capital Management. After spending about 9 years at Artisan Partners, Tyler decided to go out on his own and start his own firm in 2018. Tyler is an unabashed value investor who even wrote a book called, Value Investing: A Disciplined Framework. In this insightful conversation, we discussed: - The founding story of Seagate Capital and why Tyler felt like he was ready to be an entrepreneur; - How Tyler finds companies that both have sustainable competitive advantages and trade at reasonable valuations; - Why he decided to write a book about value investing; - What he learned about himself as an investor during a very difficult environment in 2020; and - The guardrails he has put in place to help prevent his strategy from losing money.
