In this episode of The Blunt Dollar, I sit down with Manish Singh, Chief Investment Officer at Crossbridge Capital and a veteran global macroeconomist with nearly two decades of experience steering multi-asset portfolios. 

From his engineering roots in Mumbai to building an investment philosophy rooted in patience, trust, and historical perspective, Manish shares how he balances data-driven rigor with deep human insight.

We explore:

✅ The surprising ways an engineering background shapes investment thinking 🛠️

✅ Why history, from the European revolutions of the 1800s to COVID panic, remains a critical guide for modern markets 

✅ How Manish defines real risk (hint: it’s not volatility) and why position sizing is everything 

✅ The psychological traps of herd behaviour, overconfidence, and chasing outcomes

✅ Why falling in love with the process, not the outcome, is the ultimate edge in investing

If you’re into thoughtful discussions on long-term investing, behavioural finance, and how philosophy and history intersect with capital markets, this one’s for you.
