This week's Friday Wrap-Up looks back at Nicolai Tangen's podcast conversation with John Armitage, his former boss and a man he calls one of the most important people in his life. Marthe and Nicolai discuss what Armitage taught him about analysing companies, why the best investors tend to be humble, and why Armitage calls permanent capital a trap. They also cover NBIM's recent view on the decline of shareholder rights, and why Nicolai says it matters for long-term investors like NBIM. Nicolai also opens up about why he thinks we should all say thank you more often, and the morning ritual he follows to stay grateful. Tune in!

Nobody has taught Nicolai as much about investing as John Armitage. First as his largest client, later as his boss for five years at Egerton Capital. For this episode the two meet in London, where John walks through his approach to investing: what makes a company worth the time, why pricing power matters more than almost anything, the red flags that make John sell, and how a position gets built slowly. John also talks about 30 years at the same firm, and why AI should help you think rather than think for you. Tune in!
