Magic Markets Ep107: The 2023 Outlook

2023-01-11T18:28:41+02:00

If you can imagine the worst possible year for anything, then you’re starting to understand what 2022 was like for investors in growth stocks. The combination of rising interest rates and inflated valuations at the start of the year meant that investors suffered drops of 30% (and more) across many of the “growth” names in the portfolio, including the world’s leading tech companies. Investing requires a longer-term lens than this and a strong stomach, although we all know that seeing these drops isn’t fun. Together with Craig Antonie of AnBro Capital Investments, we recap why 2022 was a perfect storm and [...]

Magic Markets Ep96: Looking to the Future

2022-10-05T23:29:29+02:00

One of the greatest challenges in the market is to maintain a cool head and a consistent strategy even when it feels like everything is against you. Clearly, this has been a terrible year for technology stocks. By focusing on the fundamental growth drivers rather than the share price movements, investors can identify the winners of the next decade. In this episode of Magic Markets, Justine Brophy of AnBro Capital Investments joins us to talk about why he feels good about the future. With specific examples of stocks that they are looking at, there’s always so much to learn from the [...]

Magic Markets Ep84: A First Half to Forget

2022-07-13T17:47:35+02:00

In the past six months, the markets weren’t a happy place. Whether you were in bonds or in stocks, you suffered. The bull and bear markets of 2020 - 2022 have been severe, driven by unprecedented levels of stimulus and macroeconomic volatility. In difficult times, it’s important to lift your head and (try to) shut out the noise. The team from AnBro Capital Investments has done exactly that. They have released research around the impact on different sectors of this bear market vs. the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) that marked the end of a multi-year bull market in 2007. Growth stocks [...]

Magic Markets Ep80: Hot Stocks vs. Hot Air

2022-06-15T23:24:16+02:00

In growth investing, you’re often buying a piece of technology that has the potential to become a wonderfully profitable commercial operation. Sometimes, these businesses aren’t profitable yet. This creates a different risk profile for investors vs. value stocks, which investors look to for near-term cash flows. The investment styles are different and so the approach needs to be different. Together with the team at AnBro Capital Investments, we’ve been learning about growth investing with examples of specific stocks. We also try to unpack how the team separates hot stocks from hot air. In this episode, we briefly touch on the disaster [...]

Magic Markets Ep71: Investing in Disruptors

2022-04-14T00:25:55+02:00

Growth. Value. Commodities. These cycles ebb and flow, with investors needing to keep a level head and clarity of thought around a long-term wealth creation strategy. In a modern world that is rapidly changing thanks to technology, not allocating a portion of a portfolio to disruptors is a mistake. With Craig Antonie from AnBro Capital Investments, we use the example of Crowdstrike to discuss a disruptive business that was incredibly ahead of its time. It takes visionary entrepreneurs to spot and understand technological trends. It takes visionary investors to be willing to take a risk on them. We also use the [...]
