High-quality Investment Analysis

Divider Text

Our contributors are professional money managers and investors, with experience in institutional money management, trading, venture capital, HNW advisory and entrepreneurship. We are not "newsletter publishers" nor journalists writing for an investing blog.

Intellectually Sound, Not PC

Divider Text

Our content is about investing in a world increasingly affected by geo-politics and capital flows. We point out irrational government policies, social movements and the madness of crowds. And equip our readers with unfiltered analysis, regardless of how controversial it may be.

Theme-based

Divider Text

Our articles usually stem from our individual investment research. Currently these are energy, interest rates, commodities, the USD, shipping, offshore, cryptocurrency and the Eurozone to name a few. You can choose the sort of content you want, or get it all.

Skin In The Game

Divider Text

Our contributors all participate with their own capital in what they are covering and make their money investing. Some of them welcome subscribers who get their research, others run investment funds, which at times they will offer exclusively to our readers.

CONTRIBUTORS

When you read our articles, you're reading the work of professional money managers, who have worked across the world for some of the most reputable names in finance as well as managing private wealth. We walk the talk. You're not hearing from journalists nor analysts who've turned to publishing, who do not face consequences for making wrong calls and have no skin in the game.

INVESTMENT THEMES

We track capital flows and other trends to establish where deep value lies, and spend our time determining how to best execute on our views. This often takes us where investors do not dare to go, and is often how we achieve outsized returns. Our contributors each have their own views, but ultimately rely on global macro analysis combined with specialist knowledge and patience - which is how we achieve an edge.

NATURAL RESOURCES

Divider Text

Capital investment into the resource industry has been falling since 2012. Nearly a decade and the supply deficit, some few years hence, is looming. Given the rising trend of resource nationalism, the industry will have to play catch up, and we're ahead of the curve.

ENERGY

Divider Text

Fossil fuels are a dirty word, though we can't think of another sector so primed to make a comeback. We are, in addition, pursuing other opportunities in energy, all of which have the promise of truly asymmetric returns.

THE US DOLLAR

Divider Text

The 2007/8 financial crisis saw unprecedented lowering of interest rates coinciding with trillions of dollars in USD borrowing. As the political landscape shifts causing volatility in currency markets and divergent interest rate policies, we are positioning for USD to run.

JAPAN

Divider Text

We believe the tail risk to Japan experiencing a currency crisis is underpriced, and should they have one, the Japanese equity markets (long shunned) will reprice violently upward. Fortunately, Japanese equities are some of the cheapest in the world.

SHIPPING

Divider Text

An oversupply of container ships exacerbated by credulous credit markets brought about the inevitable. An industry that failed to meet expectations, only to collapse with a deluge of bankruptcies, scrapping of vessels, and reorganisations. Today, few will dare tread here, and as such, the order books for new ship builds are terrible with many shipyards having shut their doors. Find out why we're excited.

INTEREST RATES

Divider Text

At the tail end of a debt supercycle, being short bonds and long rates seem like one of the most asymmetric plays for the next decade. How to execute on this is, however, where things are not so clear cut. We've found various means to position for this without the inherent risks that accompany the obvious choice of trading futures.

GREECE

Divider Text

They've been through a crisis, the country is terribly mismanaged, corrupt and still hemmed in and constrained by the EUR, which doesn't allow them to adequately manage fiscal policy. The market knows and understands this, which is why it's cheap. Greece is the conduit into Europe for China via the Belt and Road (OBOR) initiative, and this means that China will spend in Greece buying increasing amounts of both commercial and, ultimately, (wait and see) political influence.

AUSSIE HOUSING

Divider Text

The lucky country has some of the highest debt-to-income levels in the world. Aside from historically low interest rates, the mania has also been bolstered by significant foreign buying (China), now curbed by law, and historically low interest rates. These are now swiftly changing... watch LIBOR, and banks are massively leveraged to real estate.

BITCOIN

Divider Text

In a world as indebted as we have, where the risk to loss of faith in currency is higher than most realise, Bitcoin provides asymmetrical upside as well as what has become THE most secure digital ledger. For a small portion of one's portfolio, it provides a hedge quite unlike any other. We've been officially recommending since 2014.

OUR SERVICES
