Episode notes
INSIGHT

Concentrated Value Means People Matter

  • Microcaps concentrate value in a small circle of people, so political and reputational factors matter more than broad-market indicators.
  • Analyze the share register and who the cornerstone investors are to understand why the market values a tiny company.
ADVICE

Read Charts Forward Using Capital Structure

  • Look forward on charts by mapping capital-structure mechanics like options expiry and exercise prices to forecast resistance levels.
  • Use known option strikes and expiry dates to predict where price will churn or face selling pressure.
ADVICE

Vet Management Through Public Behaviour

  • Vet management rigorously by watching interviews, public behavior, and track records before investing in microcaps.
  • Prioritize trustworthy leaders who have closed deals and delivered shareholder value in small companies.
