In a recent presentation at the Seeking Alpha Investing Summit, portfolio manager Knox Ridley shared insights on mitigating risks and achieving success in tech investing. Despite the inherent volatility of the sector, Ridley’s team has consistently outperformed the NASDAQ-100 by focusing on overexposure to the right stocks and navigating volatility effectively. Emphasizing the importance of catalysts in successful tech investing, Ridley highlighted that the investment community often conflates the potential of AI and confuses its current capabilities with its future promise. Ridley also discussed the team’s preparation for a potential economic downturn, recognizing the resilience of technology companies during previous market downturns. Investors seeking guidance on tech investing are encouraged to attend weekly webinars hosted by Ridley, where he shares market analysis and investment strategies.
Two weeks ago, Knox Ridley was asked to present at the Seeking Alpha Investing Summit in New York. The topic of the presentation was “How to Safely Invest in Technology: The Million Dollar Question,” a timely question that we believe has yet to be answered. Tech investors are either buying without risk management measures in place, or they are being too safe and not fully participating in the life-changing returns that technology has to offer. As a result, we have seen investors hold the wrong stocks for too long, short the right stocks, or approach tech investing as a long-term buy-and-hold strategy that has led to large losses.
With audited returns of 131% since inception compared to the NASDAQ-100’s 82%, portfolio manager Knox Ridley explains how we’ve successfully maintained overexposure to the right tech stocks while navigating the inherent volatility within tech. We also discuss our views on AI and whether we see it as a bubble, as well as our views on cryptocurrencies. You can watch the full presentation on Seeking Alpha here.
Below are a few highlights from the event. Knox Ridley discusses the importance of a catalyst in good tech investing, how the investment community is already confusing AI, and how our team is preparing for a potential weak spot in the economy.
If you’re a tech investor who’d like to know our plans to participate in the upside that tech has to offer, and how we minimize the downside, we encourage you to attend one of our weekly webinars. Every Thursday at 4:30 EST, portfolio manager Knox Ridley will review various broad market charts and discuss our game plan for various stocks and cryptocurrencies that we currently own or are looking to own.
