Together, they discuss how institutional discipline and entrepreneurial grit shaped his career, why 2025–2026 may be the best buying window since the Great Financial Crisis, and how Viking Capital plans to bring institutional-level reporting, transparency, and opportunity to its investors.
Alex also gives practical advice for new investors, breaking down how to evaluate market fundamentals, structure deals, and think long-term in uncertain times.
