Hey guys! This week we have value investor Christian Ryther from Curreen Capital. This is a gardening heavy episode. We focused on one of the most iconic Peter Lynch’s quotes: Watering the flowers, cutting the weeds. We discussed when to cut the weeds, what to do if a flower turns into a weed, accidentally cutting a flower, finding a better flower, the bullish thesis for Getbusy ($GETB), Christian’s Ideal Investments and how Christian finds ideas. Enjoy!

Finally, a big thanks to the following sponsors for making the podcast a reality.

Mitimco

This episode is brought to you by MIT Investment Management Company, also known as MITIMCo, the investment office of MIT. Each year, MITIMCo invests in a handful of new emerging managers who it believes can earn exceptional long-term returns in support of MIT's mission. To help the emerging manager community more broadly, they created emergingmanagers.org, a website for emerging manager stockpickers.

For those looking to start a stock-picking fund or just looking to learn about how others have done it, I highly recommend the site. You'll find essays and interviews by successful emerging managers, service providers used by MIT's own managers, essays MITIMCo has written for emerging managers and more!
