End of cycle ideas

• Three major facts determine the mid term future of the global economy:

– The number of active consumers will decrease;

– There will be no brand new growth trigger;

– The number of passive consumers will increase.

• Oil price, migration, current account disbalances – are false agenda

• Through next years the oversupply of money will persist;

– Do not confuse it with budget revenues!

• We are in the best times for borrowing ever

• Added value migrates into marketing and R&D, but more into marketing

• Trade share of GDP grows – barriers become problems for the builders

• For all countries domestic markets become insufficient

• Medicine and education are to be watched after

No surprise many years were disappointing

• Investment is rarely set for success in current world

• It is more luck than method

• Unless you agree for getting less and working more

• Or – you have an advantage

Certain and uncertain 2017

• Certain

– Rates will grow; but not much

– Debt will become more expensive; but not all and not much

– GDP will not skyrocket

– Inflation will not follow rates

• Uncertain

– Equity: no clear trigger for growth apart from money inflows

– China: huge imbalances but reality is not evident

– Europe: who is next?

– Russia – greenmail is dangerous

– Commodities: seem to stabilize?

– Sensitivity grew dramatically – what triggers to expect?

2017 investment ideas

• When money is in oversupply, everything becomes a lottery; good news – while money is in oversupply, there is always someone to purchase your ticket at a premium

• Three drivers of investment success remain in place: information; access; technology

• Do not invest in securities – invest in skills, in advantages, in abilities

• Complicated strategies may deliver; however they have much more risks embedded; the largest one is fraud; the second one is unprofessionalism; third one – black swans

• Global Diversification does not diversify anything anymore, correlations change rapidly: look not for uncorrelated, but for totally independent investments

Goals and potential champions

• There is nothing bad in “inflation +” returns; there is much bad in higher ones

• Short term debt proves to be safer than anything

• USD proves to be stronger over time, than any currency, however Fridman equation is against it currently

• Arbitrage works wherever the volatility exists; to exploit it you need huge infrastructure and talent

• Asymmetry plays may be efficient, especially in hedging instruments (selling puts as example); however one needs specific skills

• Remember: there is a great difference between a rule and an exception.

– As a rule, private equity as well as equity markets require a strong trigger for good returns – either a growth in demand, or new technologies, or major shortage. We’ve got none of that any more.

– Exceptions require nothing. Finding them is a matter of luck and skill together
