    The Power of Institutional Validation with Griffin Marie, Vice President of Business Development at SumZero

    The Power of Institutional Validation with Griffin Marie, Vice President of Business Development at SumZero

    My guest on the show today is Griffin Marie, Vice President of Business Development at SumZero. We’ve teamed up with SumZero for a couple fun initiatives for the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS 2024: the Allocators Roundtable Panel and the ”Allocators Power Hour”, where we’ll have allocators on a panel discussing their mandates and what they are looking for amongst the pool of talented Small/Micro/NanoCap buy side investors. Following that panel from 2pm-6pm we’ll have space to host 1x1 meetings for Allocators to meet our buy-side attendees in 30 minute, speed dating meetings.

    We’re very excited about adding all of this to our program this year, and I invited Griffin on the pod to discuss the importance of institutional validation and the growing interest amongst allocators to engage with talented Small/Micro/Nano-cap strategies. If you are an Allocator or Buy-side manager and you’d like to participate and attend the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS, please visit our event website: PlanetMicroCapShowcase.com, or shoot me an email at rkraft@snnwire.com.com. This event is complimentary for all allocators, buy-side and retail investors.

    For the Love of Speculation with Fadi Diab, @TheGladiatorHC and Founder of Phoenix Global

    For the Love of Speculation with Fadi Diab, @TheGladiatorHC and Founder of Phoenix Global

    My guest on the show today is my friend and frequent guest, Fadi Diab, better known as @TheGladiatorHC on Twitter/X. It’s been well over a year since he’s been on the show, and we had a bunch of topics I wanted to get his take on, in particular, how the Australian MicroCap market has fared for the Gladiator in 2023 and their performance relative to North American microcaps. Fadi is the eternal speculator and while some of you may run away when you hear mining, cannabis or better yet, psychedelics, he’s running as fast as he can towards it looking for hidden gems. We chat about all this and more!

    Tier One Quality MicroCap Index and MS MicroCap Cliffnotes with Maj Soueidan (Founder and Editor) and Jan Svenda (Senior Equity Analyst) at GeoInvesting

    Tier One Quality MicroCap Index and MS MicroCap Cliffnotes with Maj Soueidan (Founder and Editor) and Jan Svenda (Senior Equity Analyst) at GeoInvesting

    My guest on the show today is Maj Soueidan, Founder and Editor, and Jan Svenda, Senior Equity Analyst, at GeoInvesting. I welcomed back my friends, Maj and Jan, to discuss their latest venture, MS MicroCap Cliffnotes and their Tier One Quality MicroCap Index. As some of you may know, we run an index as well called the Planet MicroCap Index that we use for educational purposes only to better understand how the general MicroCap market is performing with specific rules that allow for smaller, relatively illiquid names, growthy/pre-revenue/unprofitable names to be included.

    Maj and Jan launched an index, where, as it states on the MS Cliffnotes website, ”the qualification of a stock to be added to the index is determined by quality, valuation, price momentum indicators, multi-bagger potential, qualitative analysis and market cap,” and, ”the rebalancing of the MSM index occurs on an active basis, not just quarterly or monthly.” I think indices like this are necessary because you could take one look at our index at Planet MicroCap, and you’d be correct to think, that the MicroCap space has been in the doldrums for 2+ years. However, when you look at an index that assesses more qualitative factors, you’ll see that the Tier One Quality index, for example, has a current return of 27.60% and average peak return of 76.84%. I wanted to better understand Maj and Jan’s criteria for inclusion, as well as what differentiates their index from it being a ”model portfolio.”

    Building a Small/MicroCap Strategy from Scratch with Brian Bares, Founder, Portfolio Manager, and Research Analyst at Bares Capital Management

    My guest on the show today is Brian Bares, Founder, Portfolio Manager, and Research Analyst at Bares Capital Management. I had the opportunity to meet Brian at Ian Cassel’s MicroCapClub Leadership Summit last year in Chicago, where he participated in a Q&A with Connor Haley and Ian. Brian has an incredible background and vast amount of experience, not just investing in Small/MicroCaps, but also building a small/microcap strategy from scratch. In our conversation today, we talk about what it takes to launch a small/microcap strategy, how that process has changed in the last 25 years and how to differentiate yourself in order to stand out in a now crowded field of talented investors.
