Anthony Scilipoti: The Bubble No One is Talking About

Anthony Scilipoti — President and CEO of Veritas Group. Called the collapses of Valeant and Nortel before they happened. His edge: asking better questions, reading the fine print, and short selling as a public service. Now has thoughts on AI as a potential bubble.

Highlights

The quality of your analysis depends on the quality of your questions, not the quality of your answers.
Read the fine print
Scilipoti called Valeant and Nortel by reading what everyone else skipped.
Short selling as public service
