On today’s episode we welcome back Alfonso Peccatiello. Alf is the former head of a $20 bn Investment Portfolio and is now the author of The Macro Compass, which is an awesome free newsletter. Alf and Preston discussed some major macro topics back in August on episode BTC 089, and Alf made some very accurate predictions, so we had to bring him back. So be sure to check that out as well. I really enjoyed getting into the weeds on some of these very technical topics like interest rate swaps, TLTRO loans, pricing in inflation and other tools and metrics Alf uses.

I used to study options trading but pivoted to value investing 💵 after a life-altering dinner with Warren Buffet. Back in the day I was traveling around the world as a musician, but I’ve now settled in Los Angeles with my wife and two children. Together with my wife I started Better Booch 🥃 - a nationally distributed Kombucha company. ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ GET IN TOUCH WITH ME 💬: I’d love to hear from you!
