Description
When we start in the investing world, many of us think building the perfect investment strategy is about data and numbers and theory. We think the strategy that works best on paper will also work best in the real world. But it doesn't work that way. And the main reason is that all of us are not what economic theory would call "rational actors". All three of us owe a huge debt to Danny Kahneman for his groundbreaking research that taught us that. Danny recently passed away and as a tribute to him and his work, we wanted to do an episode where we discuss the lessons we learned from him. We discuss system one and system two thinking, prospect theory, anchoring, the availability heuristic, the dangers of overconfidence and how we put all of it to use in the real-world building investment strategies and managing client portfolios.
We hope you enjoy the discussion.
