I am a scientist by training, but today work in a primarily business role within the mining industry. I’ve been investing since I was a child, when my father first gave me an account as a way to teach me the basics (which incidentally, would’ve gone better had I been allowed to put it all into a certain tech company that made a very cool phone, but alas, I wouldn’t have learnt the lesson). I’m no good at trading. My style predominantly focuses on long-term compounders and value realization of mispriced assets, with the aim of beating broad market indices on a money-weighted basis long term. I stick to my circle of, at least relative, competence, and, as such, you won’t find me writing about companies across every sector (I have a day job and started writing on here this mostly out of personal enjoyment). I tend to focus on the mining space, particularly base metals, though I also have investments in non-mining companies where I feel like I can understand them well enough to make an investment decision independent of outside analysis (I usually like to go into these companies after some shock beats down the price). I like to take high reward bets, otherwise I’d just invest in a broad market ETF, and have 1-5 year timelines on investments.
