Conventional investing & EBI: What’s the difference?

 

As those who’ve listened to my latest podcast will know, I’ve been in contemplative mood this week. No, not about a certain election result, but the definition of evidence-based investing.

The question has come into sharper focus with the inaugural Evidence-Based Investing Conference in New York City just a few days away.

One of many like-minded people I’m looking forward to meeting there is Phil Huber, Chief Investment Officer for Huber Financial Advisors, based in Chicago.

Phil has just written this excellent description of the fundamental differences between conventional investors and evidence-based investors. It really is spot on.
