My guest on the show today needs no introduction. Tobias Carlisle, Founder and Managing Director of Acquirers Funds and Co-Host, Value After Hours. He manages two ETFs, a larger-cap deep value ETF with the ticker ZIG—and a smaller cap one with the ticker DEEP. He is the author of several books on value investing and is the co-host of the popular podcast: Value After Hours. You also may know him by his Twitter handle, Greenbackd. In this conversation, which started at a lunch table and continued in the podcast studio, we covered: - How he blends qualitative and quantitative research to construct his portfolios; - The methodologies he uses to inform position sizing, rebalancing, and concentration; - Why he requires the companies he owns to meet certain free cash and balance sheet criteria; - The rationale for holding a diverse range of markets cap stocks in his ZIG ETF; and - The difference between looking to be a contrarian and the willingness to be a contrarian.
