The Desert Island Investor

Tesco supermarket (TSCO) is just one of several options if you're looking to add a large-cap retail business to your portfolio. In this episode of the podcast Mark explains why he invested in Tesco and why he has held that investment for so long. He breaks down his investment argument into 5 categories that will be useful for anyone thinking of investing in a supermarket. The 'Question in a Bottle' this time is from Nathan Sturgess who asks Mark, which investors do you respect the most and which books related to investing do you personally recommend?

Mark's long-term investments have enabled him to become financially independent and to retire at the comparatively early age of 53.
