Investing Legends

Here we would like to introduce you to inspiring Investing Legends, like Bill Ackmann, Seth Klarman, Thomas Russo, Donald Yacktman and Guy Spier. This is how we have structured the information for you here:

  1. Via our YouTube channel we have created many Investing Legends playlists. Through the collected videos you will get to know the investors, their motivation and their work even better.
  2. Via links we take you to the social media profiles, personal and company websites of the investors.
  3. Background information from portals such as DATAROMA and WhaleWisdom completes the data. There you can for instance find the portfolios of Bill Ackmann, Seth Klarman, Thomas Russo, Donald Yacktman and Guy Spier.

By the way: You can also find more playlists of other interesting Investing Gurus at our YouTube Channel. Feel free to take a look around and get to know other investors.
