About this episode

In this episode of the Why Invest? podcast Luke Hyde-Smith is joined by Kiril Sokoloff, Founder of 13D Research & Strategy. Known for his contrarian and thematic investment approach, Kiril shares insights that bridge finance, geopolitics, philosophy, and history.

The discussion explores current economic turbulence, the role of China and India in the global economy and the importance of free cash flow, value investing, and adaptability in navigating a changing global order.

Kiril offers advice to young investors: study history, focus on human insight over technology, and pursue overlooked sectors like strategic resources.
