Nomad Letters : The Full Collection of the Nomad Investment Partnership Letters to Partners, 20012014

A master class in long-term investing and rational thinking from two of the most celebrated investors of the 21st century.

Between 2001 and 2014, amid gale-force global economic headwinds, Nick Sleep and Qais Zakaria’s Nomad Investment Partnership dramatically outperformed the market—and their biannual Letters to Partners earned cult status as some of the most clear-headed writing on investing and deciphering market forces.

Nomad Letters is the first compilation of these letters in print, sharing the enduring insights of two of the sharpest minds in value investing. Featuring a new prologue by Nick Sleep and a foreword by Stripe cofounder and president John Collison, Nomad Letters details the investment philosophy behind Sleep and Zakaria’s success—an approach that favors patience, conviction, and dedication to long-term competitive advantage over short-term returns. It includes Sleep’s reflections on the pioneering concept of “scale economics shared,” embodied in Nomad’s longtime investments in Costco and Amazon, and on the pair’s profound commitment to long-term thinking, never following the herd, and pursuing a meaningful life beyond wealth accumulation.

Not only a blueprint for investors, Nomad Letters is essential reading for anyone seeking to build long-lasting businesses, understand market dynamics, and see the world more clearly.
