Roger Montgomery
July 25, 2023
Back on 12 October last year, with the S&P500 in the grip of a bear market, we published a blog titled “Why it might be time to be greedy once more”.

Private Credit: a smart choice
Roger Montgomery
July 17, 2023
For many years I’ve advocated investment in equities. That won’t change. I believe owning quality growing businesses is the surest way to long-term wealth creation.

Value investing? Don’t follow Ben Graham
Roger Montgomery
July 11, 2023
Over the years, there has been some confusion about our approach to value investing. And even though a majority of my 2010 book, Value.able discussed the importance of identifying quality businesses, which included a company’s bright prospects for growth, many investors and commentators have been fixated on the value component of the philosophy. continue…

Roger Montgomery
June 27, 2023
Rachel Pupazzoni published an article for ABC News discussing how seven companies have experienced significant growth compared to other stocks, collectively rising by 50 per cent year-to-date, while the rest of the companies in the MSCI US Index have remained unchanged.
