Just before Christmas, I made myself a Christmas present and got my new Polestar 2 electric car. I always liked that car because while it is very similar to a Tesla Model 3 it is essentially a Volvo underneath, which means it has a much better build quality. But more importantly, it is a thoroughly well-designed car. Not only is it good-looking, but everything in it is properly thought through to the point where you start looking at other cars thinking to yourself: Why do they do that?
Thank you for invoking the spirit of Dieter Rams -and by extension, of his disciple Jony Ive- in connection with the art of portfolio management. Simplicity is the mark of the right stuff.
As an aside that relates more to your new Polestar than to investing: there is a thesis saying that the more complex a system becomes, the more difficult it gets to improve its performance. And the more likely it is that the system’s technology will be replace by a completely new approach.
For the dashboard, is this the general attitude of C-suits managers that they don’t want a sea of information and just the dashboard to the point???

I love my Polestar 2 as well. You’re so right about the simplicity
