Episode 96, Meb Faber, "Investing in America: The Rise of the 250-year Bull Market," host Rick Ferri

Meb Faber is a co-founder and the Chief Investment Officer of Cambria Investment Management. He is the host of The Meb Faber Show podcast and has authored numerous white papers and leather-bound books. In this podcast, we talk about Meb's latest book, "Investing in America: The Rise of the 250-year bull market." This book is a US stock market fanatic's dream. It's a coffee-table-style book that breaks down US capitalism by decade, with beautiful charts and pictures and, most importantly, a narrative for each decade highlighting major business highlights, economic shortfalls, wars, and unexpected bumps in the road.

Rick Ferri, a long-time Boglehead and investment adviser, hosts this episode. The Bogleheads are a group of like-minded individual investors who follow the general investment and business beliefs of John C. Bogle, founder and former CEO of the Vanguard Group. It is a conflict-free community where individual investors reach out and provide education, assistance, and relevant information to other investors of all experience levels at no cost. The organization supports a free forum at Bogleheads.org, and the wiki site is Bogleheads® wiki.

Since 2000, the Bogleheads have held national conferences in major cities across the country. In addition, local Chapters and foreign Chapters meet regularly, and new Chapters form periodically. All Bogleheads activities are coordinated by volunteers who contribute their time and talent.
