Hugh Hendry on his investment philosophy

I am an existentialist.  To my mind, the three most important principles when it comes to investing are Albert Camus's principles of ethics: God is dead, life is absurd and there are no rules.  Of course, that's a doctrine of promoting the individual.  You own your own decisions.
