Our quarterly market reports
Our Quarterly Market Report provides powerful empirical evidence as to why we are confident that our investment philosophy and process, closely followed, will deliver market beating returns for our clients over time. This work again points to controllable factors - markets move wildly, falling in and out of love with different sectors and companies, but we have a defined formula that works and we stick to our guns by only owning quality companies when they are incorrectly valued by other investors. We discuss stocks in this report, delving into our investment cases for specific securities which we own.

STAFF MEMBER PROFILE
Staff member profile – Joshua Reed (Analyst)
When did your interest in financial markets start?
My interest in financial markets started during high school accounting, leading me to pursue a finance focused degree, Bachelor of Business Science. I was intrigued by the intricacy and occasional absurdity of markets, and the idea of allocating capital appropriately makes a lot of sense. My internship at Northstar cemented my passion for investing.
