068: Mikael Syding – From “schoolyard hippie” to European Hedge Fund Manager of the Decade (to AI enthusiast)

Chat With Traders - A podcast by Tessa Dao

Categories:

For this episode, we have our very first guest from Sweden—big shout out to Sweden!

I spoke with Mikael Syding; a value investor who spent 15 years in the hedge fund business, and in 2009, he was awarded European Hedge Fund Manger of the Decade before retiring shortly after.

During the interview, I ask Mikael to share his three greatest lessons for traders and investors, how he spotted growth opportunities, and I also ask him how his views on money have changed over the span of his career, plus a whole lot more…

All of this was great, but I have to say, my favorite part of this conversation was the last 10-15 minutes, where Mikael talks about artificial intelligence and technology becoming one with humans. It’s full on—prepare to have your mind blown!
