Wealthtrack: Q&A With Chuck Akre, Manager, Akre Focus Fund: Video Presentation
Caught Chuck A.'s WealthTrack interview on PBS; first time I've seen/heard him in action.
I think a key takeaway is that there's a significant amount of judgment in his (extremely successful) process, and that may not be transferable once Chuck hangs it up. At least until then, though, going along for the ride is not the worse thing a mutual fund investor could do.
Looks quite inviting! I already have too many irons in the fire. If an opportunity to consolidate comes along so that I can add Akre Focus AKREX without adding to the current number of funds I own, I shall certainly do so.
