In this episode, we dive into Paul Graham’s essay on how wealth creation has evolved over the past few decades. We explore why inherited wealth is on the decline, what industries are driving the newest fortunes, and how compounding still remains a powerful path to wealth.

Then, Simon gives his key takeaways from Warren Buffett’s latest letter to shareholders. Including why Buffett prefers to invest in companies rather than to hold bonds, his concerns about the currency and how the underlying businesses that Berkshire owns have been doing.

The discussion then shifts to TFI International's challenging quarter and the brutally honest commentary provided by their CEO during their conference call.

Dan then goes over Home Depot's most recent quarter. The conversation covers consumer spending trends, transaction volumes, and the company's cautious outlook for 2025 amid high mortgage rates and a slowdown in building material revenue.

In this episode, Simon takes a different approach by using a stock screener to uncover a Canadian small-cap company he had never heard of—Calian Group (CGY). He breaks down the company’s diverse business lines, financials, and key questions he’s looking to answer about its long-term potential.

The episode then shifts to the timeless investing lesson of simplicity vs. complexity. Braden discusses why experienced investors often come full circle—starting with simple ideas, getting lost in complexity, and eventually realizing that the best long-term winners are the ones they truly understand. He shares personal examples, including his "stop being an idiot" moment that led him to quadruple down on Constellation Software (CSU), his best investment to date.
