  • 20. How JAPAN became INVISIBLE without losing DOMINANCE w/ Ulrike Schaede
    Jun 5 2025

    This week I was lucky enough to be joined by Ulrike Schaede. I came to know Ulrike after reading the two books she has authored on Japanese business (`The Business Reinvention of Japan´ & 'Japan Re-Emerges´) and thought it would be a great idea to have her on the podcast to discuss...

    1. The bubble period in Japan
    2. How Japan became Invisible without losing dominance
    3. Other trends in Japan like digitization and the labor market flexibilization

    I hope you enjoy my episode with Ulrike and feel free to leave a review if you do!

    Thank you!

  • 13. Palantir: Business & Valuation w/ Arny Trezzi
    Nov 25 2024

    Link to Best Anchor Stocks, my investment research service focused on high-quality companies: www.bestanchorstocks.com

    Link to Palantir Bullets, Arny's blog focused on Palantir: https://www.palantirbullets.com/

    --------------

    This is a first-of-a-kind episode as it’s a deep dive into a specific company: Palantir. Palantir is known today for its hot stock, but not many people understand what the company does or why it’s accelerating its growth as it scales. This podcast aims to touch both sides of the story: the business and the valuation.

    To help me I was lucky enough to be joined by Arny Trezzi, an individual investor that has done deep research on Palantir and holds it as one of its main positions. We discuss…

    • The concept of asymmetry
    • What the company does
    • Its competitive advantages
    • And valuation among other things
