The Graham Circle

When I first dipped my toe into understanding the investing world , I was 16. 

I had no connections  - just curiosity, hunger and an irrational amount of enthusiasm for something I knew would take a long time to understand properly (I still haven't figured it all out).

For the next five years, I was alone.

Sure, I found the online communities fast. But they were either anonymous and impersonal or chaotic and shallow. Furthermore, the best online communities were US-based. And while I eventually met a few industry people who were polite enough to talk, the truth is that most professionals aren't going to open up to a bright-eyed, giddy student overly enthusiastic about talking stocks.

And maybe soon, I’ll be part of that industry too. 

But I know there must be others - just like me - who care deeply about the craft of investing. People who study companies obsessively not for prestige, not for content, but because it's just what they do.

The truth is, I’ve read hundreds of books, thousands of filings and listened to more earnings calls than I care to admit. But I've hit the point where new insights won’t come from more input - they’ll come from conversation.

And yet… I don’t know many who treat investing like this  - not as a side hustle or speculation, but as a craft. Something to be mastered.

So I started The Graham Circle.

A small, in-person investing club for people in London who take deep, fundamental investing seriously.
People who still try to think like a modern-day Ben Graham. Or a young Warren Buffett.
People who enjoy pitching stocks, thinking independently and writing memos even when no one’s watching.

I didn’t start this to build a name for myself and there won't be much "online record" of the club after I'm done promoting. I started it because I care deeply about the craft and I know there are people out there I can learn from or maybe even help in return. 

We’re looking for a few others - thoughtful, long-term thinkers - to meet weekly, share ideas  and build real friendships that are nearly impossible to find online.

If you're already in the industry and miss real, candid investing conversation, you're absolutely welcome to apply, too.

Remember we’re not looking for credentials or personal net worth. Just clarity of thought.

Good luck,
