October 2025 Random Ramblings

In this month’s episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker reflects on key investing themes from October 2025. He probes Warren Buffett’s late-stage performance, introducing a concept called “risk riding” and considers the unseen risks that may have shaped Buffett’s recent success. Andrew also critiques excessive investor relations spending, explores a tweet on the underappreciated value of averaging up, and questions the mindset behind stocks being “cheaper today than yesterday.”
