Few people are more qualified to discuss hedge funds and value investing than Whitney Tilson. Founder of T2 Partners, which manages three value-oriented hedge funds and two mutual funds, Tilson also co-edits Value Investor Insight, an investment newsletter, and is the co-founder and chairman of the Value Investing Congress. He’s also written on value investing for the Motley Fool Web site and for TheStreet.com. Recently, we asked him to explain what differentiates a value investor, and to share some of his best investment ideas.
