what an incredible interview, thank you for sharing!

I absolutely love the fact that he recalls all his successes as well as his failures along with the values of the stocks that he was involved in. Also as mentioned by the interviewer he was completely candid about his failure with J C Penny and explained the root cause for the failure including name dropping the people he was involved with which not many investors would have been keen to talk about.

14 seconds in and he's poured a drink for the interviewer. Yes, I think I will listen to all of this.

Nice. At a time (may 2020 midst covid 19) when the quality of entertainment is so redundant & mundane, there’s nothing like a little intellectual stimulation to get the day going. Very well appreciated.

He was 100% right about Herbalife. He lost because schemes like this can win with the right backing. It's a shame. Great to see Bill's recent successes after a rough few years.

excellent video, thanks for posting

@@alice_pk The financial system is not being treated very well when the scandals arise. Meaning when alarm bells go off, the protecting bodies hardly intervene or are extremely slow to act. Ackman is part of that culture. And i want to emphasize that i understand the issues with a decent treatment of the financial system, but i do not approve it. By decent i mean that the protecting bodies actually act on alarms when they are reported and to hold people responsible. The Madoff case is the best example, people have been informed about the issues for years and nothing was being done all the time. And when i was over, many weren't even punished, only Madoff and a few others were jailed. There are plenty of more scandals and i want that changed. I want a system where people that call out issues are being taken serious and it is being dealt with on time before everything comes crashing down, taking people's savings.

Then consider: "Is it possible to record a video at different sound volume levels?" ANSWER IS 'YES' The failure of many youtube uploaders is they do not TEST their volume level. The successful way to record is: 1) close physical proximity microphone - say, a 'collar' microphone on everyone in the video, NOT the cheap microphone built into the camera that's recording the video because, beside being cheap, those rarely have an adjustable volume level 2) adjust the recording volume to be on the 'loud' side to make it possible to hear the video when it's uploaded 3) upload the video to youtube and test - because every recording system can have a different volume level Uploading an un-hearable video - WHY BOTHER, you are uploading failure and you come across as a lazy, inconsiderate schmoh . .

Great talk

Bill just seems to be living his life and being candid and honest. Really it's the public that puts him on a pedestal and judges him harshly for doing so just because of the business life he has pursued. Just listen to him as a man sharing his personal experience. People don't want to do that because he's wall st. and people have preconceived notions that he must be a greedy evil snob then even if he does take personal losses to improve the market. It's like finding the rare mythical creature of a decent ethical lawyer in modern society.

Love Bill Ackman! I'm still interested to know what will happen to herbalife.

Please tune up the sound.

Very interesting investor....try to use some of his principles in developing my portfolio

Bill Ackman ROCKS!

Bill's answer to the critics of activist investing due to its short term profit nature is very interesting. Slightly humorous how he is able to pitch his short-term position as long-term. Not sure if he is that much smarter than all of us or just very good at crafting a response that people want to hear. Probably a little bit of both!

Great human being

"How you deal with adversity that determines your ultimate success, as opposed to how you deal with success determines your ultimate success"

Maybe the JC Penney lesson isn’t biz-school stuff like board alignment, etc., but the far more human factor that lower income people (among others) WANT constant sales and coupons. They DON’T know what a shirt “should” cost (who does ?), so they want a discount that reassures them that they aren’t getting ripped off (whether that’s really true or not). You can remake a company, but you can’t remake human nature, no matter how irrational it seems to very smart people like Ackman. Herbalife is similar- a bad biz that “succeeds” for irrational reasons. It’s almost impossible for someone of Ackman’s background- family wealth, Harvard BA/MBA, then right into a hedge fund- to understand how the other 99.99 % of the world actually thinks. That said, it’s admirable that Ackman is so open about his failures. THAT’S a highly rational habit that few want to practice.

@gailbateman1077

JC Penney failed because they tried to push the homosexual agenda to their target customers, who rebelled. Same thing is happening to Target right now, and the fact that Ackman didn't discern this tells us there is a critical missing element in our nation's business leaders.

Definitely better if the website had not failed. A second important point is when you make a generational change in philosophy, as is the case with changes to education or healthcare -hiccups will be there.

2:55 Random question but I noticed both speakers pronounced "finance" as "fuh-NANCE" rather than "FAI-nance", I have never heard anyone say it like that before.. How I totally missed something and that's common? Have never heard it in the UK either.

its funny how the whole idea behind the redesigning of a blank Apple store was catered towards customer experience and still is, what i dont understand is how Ron Johnson forgot to take the human behaviour/psychological pattern into consideration that, once free money stops coming, would someone be inclined to purchase? Just like Dogs, you want a bark you need to incentivize. blows my mind.
