Dimensional Stories: Empirical Work

DFA founder David Booth likes to say, “it’s about ideas,” and we certainly don’t know of another fund company that has been more about ideas than Dimensional Fund Advisors. As Dimensional embarks on it’s 25th year of working with financial advisors ,they shared with us a series of Dimensional Stories, two minute videos on the themes and insights that influence Dimensional’s way of investing. We will be sharing these Dimensional Stories with you over the next few months as we feel they give insight into the thinking of an important strategic partner, one which adds enormously to our clients’ investment success. We hope you enjoy the first video featuring Nobel Laureate Eugene Fama titled “Empirical Work”.

If you have a Live Big glass, feel free to email a picture of you enjoying a drink from your glass to Lauren@YeBu.com to join the campaign. If you do not have a glass, you may also email Lauren@YeBu.com and we will happily send you a glass so you can participate.
