Interview with Meb Faber, Founder & CIO of Cambria Investment Management
This week we released an excellent interview with none other than Meb Faber, the founder of Cambria Investment Management. When I asked Meb to be on Compounders, I realized I knew a lot more about him as a podcast host than as an investor. So, this interview was focused on Cambria's slate of ETFs and we covered a lot, including:
· Cambria’s journey to get to over $2 billion in AUM;
· Who the target audience is for the various ETFs;
· The Trinity portfolios that Cambria offers its clients;
· What is so interesting about “shareholder yield” strategies; and
· How Cambria differentiates itself in a the now crowded ETF space.
Here is the link to the full interview:
As mentioned above, Cambria has launched a number of ETFs over its history. I was curious about how Meb and his team decided when to launch a new ETF. In this clip, Meb discusses the four criteria Cambria uses to determine whether or not to launch a fund.
Please stay tuned for a consistent stream of interview releases as we work through a very solid backlog of podcasts.
Sincerely,
Ben Claremon
