Chuck Akre Said This About How to Find 100 Baggers

In this episode I summarize and discuss an interview with legendary investor Chuck Akre, in which he lays out his three-legged stool investing approach that has enabled him to achieve multiple 100 bagger stocks, and many multi-baggers. We look at examples from Akre Capital Management’s portfolio, and how his investment strategy has achieved such impressive returns over the long term.
