Both lectures focused on stock-picking strategies, but offered different approaches to investing.

His main suggestion is to maintain a long-term investment horizon and hold a concentrated basket of companies that feature a sustainable competitive advantage at a margin of safety. As a hedge fund manager, CFA, and MBA from the GSB, Peter Brimm reveals his exhaustive and meticulous investment research process that he uses to make large bets on only a few stocks. 2015 text Electronic Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10150/578900 en_US Copyright © is held by the author.
