Altium’s share price soars on take-over bid
David Buckland
February 21, 2024
Altium Limited (ASX:ALU) was floated on the ASX in August 1999 at $2.00 per share, and the market bought into the excitement by driving up the share price to $6.70 by March 2000. 11 years later, the company was going through enormous pain, and this saw the Altuim share price crash to $0.09 by mid-2011, down 98.7 per cent from its record high.

Another advisor suggests small caps
Roger Montgomery
February 29, 2024
Recently, Wilsons Advisory released a report outlining their case for small caps. At the risk of repeating what we have already said over the last twelve or so months, investors keen to allocate capital to an opportunity to potentially boost returns, will be interested in the small cap bull case from a third party.

FEAR AND GREED: Small caps to watch this reporting season
Roger Montgomery
February 19, 2024
In this episode of Fear and Greed Podcast, Sean Aylmer and I delved into the current landscape of small cap stocks. Despite favourable economic conditions, I discussed the challenges they’ve faced in recent years and underscored the importance of identifying innovative growth companies with pricing power and expressed my optimism for their potential for a resurgence. We also explored specific sectors like retail, mining, and technology, highlighting both successful companies and industry trends during this reporting season. Additionally, I provided insights into the emergence of Bitcoin ETFs, urging caution amid the speculative and popularity-based nature of these investments. Continue…

Roger Montgomery
February 28, 2024
Last year, investors who held a non-consensus bullish stance on equities saw their optimism rewarded as the market trended up through 2023. As we pivot into 2024, the outlook might appear to be more complex, but in reality, the preconditions remain the same: disinflation accompanied by positive economic growth. Continue…

It’s heresy to the true believers, but Tesla might be just another car company
Roger Montgomery
April 11, 2024
Wow. Talk about playing the man and not the ball! Perhaps some of the most vitriolic feedback I have encountered has come from those who have chosen to write to me explaining how wrong I am about Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) possibly being just another car company.
They’re as staunchly convinced about the company’s prospects as they are about its products. Continue…

Why everything points to small caps outperforming this year
Roger Montgomery
March 28, 2024
Since May last year I have been advocating for investors to consider smaller companies, locally and globally.
The initial arguments rested on Gavekal Research’s empirical evidence in the late 1970s which said innovative companies with pricing power (of which there is a surfeit among small caps) do well when disinflation (which we see today) meets with positive economic growth (which we also see today). Continue…

You don’t need to forecast to be a successful investor.
Roger Montgomery
March 14, 2024
With all the talk about a bubble in equities at the moment (I think we are a long way from the euphoria that typically defines bubbles), I thought it would be prudent to take a look at the recent forecasting track record of some of the biggest names in funds management and investment banking.

Here’s why now is the time for small cap stocks
Roger Montgomery
March 27, 2024
2023 saw the largest gap emerge between large-cap companies and small caps since the GFC. The question is, will this gap to close in 2024?
We are optimistic about Australian small caps, anticipating a highly favourable environment and outperformance. That gap offers greater growth than large caps, at relatively more attractive valuations. Continue…
