## Resource

This week on This Week in Intelligent Investing, Elliot and John are thrilled to welcome Shaun Heelan of MAAT Investment Group. Shaun brings a masterclass in deep-value investing and private-equity-style due diligence, offering a contrarian take on today’s market complacency and the tech-heavy concentration of passive indices. In this episode, we explore the widening cracks in the credit market, dig into the forensic accounting details of a passed opportunity, and discuss why the current AI boom might look a lot like the historical capital traps of railroads and aviation. Shaun also breaks down MAAT’s newest portfolio addition, illustrating exactly how to calculate a true margin of safety when the broader market is in despair.
