This week, Nicolai Tangen sits down with Paul Singer, legendary investor and founder of Elliott investment Management, one of the world's most influential activist investors. Singer shares insights from his remarkable career spanning several decades, discussing how activist investing works, why companies need external pressure for change, and his philosophy of never losing money.

The 80-year-old Singer also shares his views on crypto, AI valuations, and his advice to young people. The conversation offers a rare glimpse into the mind of one of investing's most successful and determined practitioners.
