Subscribe to get some insight on my investment process and get updates on what I do. Also, actively participate and challenge what I do, as this is my principal reason for writing publicly about my market portfolio (although behind alias – so the two should cancel each other out).
Who am I
I am a non-professional individual investor intrigued by intrinsic valuation. I studied quantitative finance, hold Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certificate, and currently I am working in a large European bank. I learned the most about investing from books of Benjamin Graham (human psychology never changes), Seth Klarman (market is irrational sometimes) and Aswath Damodaran (connecting stories and numbers). I started investing in developing economies in Europe almost ten years ago, survived one horrible market crash of 2020, and now I mostly focus on EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and USA. My goal is to invest in temporary undervalued companies that have predictable and at least average or above average medium term prospects, ultimately ensuring safety of my principal investment and satisfactory return.
I write about my portfolio and act based upon my valuations. Disclaimer, my articles are not a financial or investment advices and everyone should do its own due diligence before placing their money anywhere. One of the reasons I write while not using my real name and identity is because use of alter egos should be a primary deterrent in blindly following actions of others. If you can use my articles to get a few ideas of your own, then communicate them back to me, or profit on them, their mission would be complete.
We get money by leasing our limited time on this planet. It’s not something that should be easily thrown away based on a rumour or a hunch. ⚖
I track my portfolio in a structured way since 2020, and I keep my performance public (measured through hypothetical portfolio liquidation price after tax of 27.5% vs. parallelly timed investment portfolio in broad market index after tax liquidation price).

I invest for personal gain, but I write in my spare time and for pleasure. I have a full time job, and a substantial amount of my free time is invested into each analysis I do. On average, I cover 6 – 8 companies that are new to me, and all of those I had previously got to know per year.
Best of luck to all of us! 🍀
