Jeremy Raper on Haier Smart Home

Jeremy Raper, founder of the excellent rapercapital.com and our inaugural guest, makes a repeat appearance on the podcast. We provide an update on his idea from our last podcast (Brag), discuss a potential $300m+ investment he's looking to source, and then dive deep into his later idea, Haier Smart Home German Shares (690D).

Note that BRAG and Haier are both international small cap stocks; please do you own research and nothing in this podcast is investing advice.
