Description

Back in May, Livewire sat down with the chief investment officer of a family office - i.e. the steward of a billionaire client's wealth. The main takeaway, for this anonymous writer at least, was that Australia's ultra-wealthy are on the hunt for concentrated, high-conviction funds - those that hold a smaller number of stocks, look very different from the benchmark, and generate returns far different from the index too. So in this episode of Buy Hold Sell, we're hoping we can learn what sets these types of funds apart - and of course, whether investors at home can replicate these strategies too. To do that, Livewire's Ally Selby was joined by Magellan's Alan Pullen and Loftus Peak's Alex Pollak. They share the case for concentrated strategies, how they identify the stocks that make their way into portfolios, the perfect number of holdings, ideal holding times and turnover. They also provide an example of a stock that didn't perform as expected and what they learnt from that, their best-performing positions since their funds' inception, and their highest conviction ideas from their portfolio of best ideas for markets today.
