  • Look for investment ideas with a 50% return potential over three years.
  • Pursue those ideas across three categories: undervalued earnings growth, undervalued assets, and undervalued dividend yield.

  • Analyze risk of each portfolio from multiple angles – including looking at a range of factor exposures, such as currencies, commodities, and the shape of the yield curve.
