Background
Most investors are familiar with legendary or guru investors such as Warren Buffett, George Soros, Carl Icahn, and others. Many indeed regularly follow their investing activities via their fund’s quarterly SEC 13-F filings, and also their more frequent 5% ownership SC 13D/G filings. Similarly, many follow the world’s largest or mega fund managers such as Fidelity, Vanguard, BlackRock and maybe two dozen others, that together account for about half of the U.S. Equity discretionary fund assets. Investor interest in these guru and mega fund investors is evident, and also supported by our own experiences, whereby our articles (under the name, Ganaxi Capital) on their investing activities on the leading financial blog, Seeking Alpha, have been viewed over three million times in the past year.
This website is a response to the tremendous reception we have had to our Seeking Alpha articles, where our articles have been viewed over 6 million times, and at the request for more granular and comprehensive information from our readers, especially in terms of our coverage of smaller and mid-cap companies. While we initially focused on just guru and mega funds, the effort quickly expanded to include four other groups, namely, billionaire & billionaire fund managers, new masters fund managers, sector-focused fund managers, and tiger fund managers, totaling over 300 leading fund managers organized into these six fund groups.
While we cannot guarantee instant success, we believe that used appropriately, and in a diversified portfolio, the Consensus Buy & Sell Picks by Guru, Mega and other fund managers from the six different fund groups included in our website will help you reduce investment risk and enhance long-term performance. Also, the screening tools can be used to uncover new investment ideas, both long and short, based on the direction of the Consensus Picks by fund managers, and when used with valuation and other investment tools, can lead to better investment decision-making.
