Michael Covel speaks with Ben Hunt on today’s podcast. Hunt is the Chief Risk Officer at Salient Partners. Salient is a 19B AUM manager based in Houston, Texas. As Chief Risk Officer, Hunt writes the Epsilon Theory, viewing capital markets through the lenses of game theory and history. Covel and Hunt discuss the power of the crowd watching the crowd; game theory; having a profound agnosticism about what the future holds; the difference between risk and uncertainty in the context of game theory; the Panopticon and the chilling effect of being watched; the “common knowledge game” and the missionary; the island of the green-eyed tribe.
