Investing is an expectations game, and today’s guest wants to help you get the probabilities in your favour


Today we're joined by Matt Wacher, Chief Investment Officer for Asia-Pacific at Morningstar.


In our conversation, we cover:

  • Why investing should be thought of as an expectations game
  • How we can identify the expectations investors have for different companies and markets
  • Why Matt likes finding the lowest bars to jump over
  • Examples of this approach: How it helped Matt and his team identify Alibaba's turnaround and avoid Nvidia's fall
  • Another company that Matt thinks the market has overreacted to and is set up for a turnaround
