In order to produce a stellar analysis, have you ever requested a team to teardown a Tesla and count every last washer and battery cell? No?

Luckily you don’t have to have a Wall Street-sized budget in order to tap into the power of alternative data.

In this episode we talk about some of the considerations and approaches when you put down that hammer and see the world around you is more than just a bunch of nails.
