The World Was Wrong, The Models Were Right (TN01)
Good Morning!
This may be my first real newsletter. Previously, I blasted out full-length articles via email. That’s changing. You’ll now be getting a short and sweet summary of whatever is on my mind.
Disruptive Innovation (ARK)
I spent a lot of time in the past two weeks thinking about investing in disruption initially because my Instagram subscribers requested my take on ARK Invest and Cathie Wood. But mostly because I was curious as to why I never found the fund attractive. As a technologist, I wondered if I was truly missing out on a field in which I may have an edge. As it turns out, however, technological revolutions are great for the world. Investing in them, however, isn’t always as profitable.
