I liked the interview with Rob Copeland, author of the book The Fund, about Ray Dalio and his company, Bridgewater Associates. Two highlights: 1) Bridgewater’s investing is not systematic but relies on founder Ray Dalio’s hunches. 2) Dalio runs the firm like a cult with him at the centre. The book doesn’t have a smoking gun about Bridgewater, however. It seems to be a legitimate firm.

Out of the below reports, I think AlmostMongolian’s write-up on oil & gas mapping company Mind Technology was the most compelling. A restructuring has caused the company’s net cash to exceed the market cap of US$6 million (excluding the prefs). Further, Mind has positive EBITDA and an order backlog of US$30 million. The only problem is that it’s an illiquid stock.

Finally, I recommend the new Netflix documentary Arnold about Hollywood actor Arnold Schwarzenegger. There’s much to learn from his successes, including having a clear vision, being useful to others, having a positive attitude, etc. Arnold’s favourite quote: “Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and advertise”.
