My guest today is Dan Loeb, the founder and CEO of Third Point. Dan started Third Point in 1995 with a few million dollars, and today the firm manages over 24 billion across equities, corporate and structured credit, venture, and insurance. He is best known for his activist work at companies like Sotheby's, Sony, and Yahoo, and for the public letters he has written to boards over the years. What I find most interesting about Dan is how much his approach has evolved across thirty years. He came up as a credit and event-driven investor at Warburg Pincus and Jefferies, built Third Point, then layered in quality investing, thematic technology investing, and now a very large credit business that sits alongside the hedge fund. We cover how he thinks about the AI stack and the companies inside it he believes matter most, the difference between good and bad governance, what FTX taught him about due diligence, the Sony and Sotheby's stories, and the power of writing. Please enjoy my conversation with Dan Loeb.

The richest man in the world made a decision that is seriously affecting your life. His decision controls your paycheck. Your savings. Your rent. Your retirement. He didn't need a law. He didn't need a vote. He just needed one thing. Control of the money. And the moment he got it? Two sets of rules were written. One for the people who print the money. One for the people who earn it. You were handed the second set at birth. And never told the first one existed. Most people will work 40 years inside a system designed by someone they've never heard of. For a job that is really a cage. Keeping them compliant. Keeping them quiet. Want to see? Want to break out?
