Ep. 143 - The Templeton Way: The Art of Contrarian Investing with Lauren Templeton, Founder and Principal of Templeton & Phillips Capital Management

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Lauren Templeton. She is the Founder and Principal of Templeton & Phillips Capital Management, LLC.

If you had to build an investor in a lab with the desired intellect, knowledge base, capability, behavioral intelligence and pedigree, I think Lauren Templeton would be the result of that. She has a wealth of experience, from the many lessons she learned from her father starting at a young age, to her days working with her great uncle, Sir John Templeton, and in this episode, we cover it all.

Ep. 142 - Hanging Out with Bill Brewster, Founder and Portfolio Manager of Sullimar Capital Group

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Bill Brewster. He is the Founder and Portfolio Manager of Sullimar Capital Group. Bill is also a co-host on the very popular series, Value After Hours podcast, with Tobias Carlisle and Jake Taylor. I’ve interview Toby and Jake, and it was about time to bring on the third leg of the triumvirate - the most important leg of course. Bill is already a legend and rather than do my typical style of interview - let’s chat about your background, investing philosophy, etc… - I figured, since you can hear that on a weekly basis on Bill’s show, thought it would be fun to, as the title states, hang out. We go everywhere from his thesis on his investment in Qurate Retail Group to Cobra Kai (promise no spoilers). Grab a beer and join us at the bar - this is Planet MicroCap after hours.Planet MicroCap Podcast is on YouTube!

Ep. 141 - An Intelligent Framework for Successful Investing in Any Market with Sham Gad, Paragon Technologies, Inc., Gad Partners Funds and Author of “The Business of Value Investing”

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Sham Gad. He is the Chairman and CEO of Paragon Technologies, Inc. (OTC: PGNT), Managing Partner of Gad Partners Funds, and Author of “The Business of Value Investing.” I met Sham at one of our events, where he was doing a presentation of Paragon. We chatted a couple times, but we had been planning on catching up more once the event was over. Cool story though, Tobias Carlisle was giving a keynote at the event, and I was right there when he saw Sham and they caught up. Sham wrote a couple guest articles in 2010 for Toby's blog, Greenbackd, and after the event, I read his articles, his philosophy with Paragon, and have been trying to get him on the podcast ever since. This episode has been a couple years in the making, and really excited that Sham took the time to share his insights.Planet MicroCap Podcast is on YouTube!

Ep 138 - How Understanding Mispricing Helps Generate Alpha with Jeff Henriksen, Founder and Managing Partner of Thorpe Abbotts Capital

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Jeff Henriksen, Founder and Managing Partner of Thorpe Abbotts Capital. Jeff and I met when he joined me on The Investors Roundtable, Episode #6. We had a great time on there, and it was time to highlight his investing thesis and philosophy. One of the reasons I love asking and getting to know my guests’ backgrounds is that it usually is an indicator to their investing worldview, and Jeff’s story has an a very interesting parallel. Get hyped for how Jeff’s undergrad thesis about the difference in how Revolutionary War soldiers viewed their experience during the war, as it was happening, to 50 years later, may have influenced Jeff’s focus on mispricing and creating a system around finding those opportunities.Planet MicroCap Podcast is on YouTube!

Ep. 135 - Many Levels to Being a Contrarian Investor with Ben Claremon, Cove Street Capital

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Ben Claremon, Principal, Portfolio Manager and Research Analyst at Cove Street Capital. Quick side note, I’ve met more LA-based investors during COVID-19 than before - definitely in-person happy hour once things normalize a bit. This was a fun chat with Ben, where we really dig in to the many levels of being a contrarian investor. Value investors, for the most part, are natural contrarians looking for great deals in the market. Trying to find ways to understand what the market doesn’t love and why, makes for a good conversation.Planet MicroCap Podcast is on YouTube!

Ep. 132 - CFP® Marketing 101: Understanding Your Niche with Taylor Schulte, CFP, Founder and CEO of Define Financial

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Taylor Schulte, CFP, Founder and CEO of Define Financial. I found Taylor via his podcasts: Stay Wealthy and Experiments in Advisor Marketing, and I thought it would be interesting to understand CFA and CFP marketing better. As it shows on Define Financial's website, it is very clear, "Retirement Planning For Individuals Over Age 50" - bam, right there, in your face, this is what we do. I've been interviewing more CFA's and CFP's recently, and between my recent interviews with Anna N'Jie-Konte, and now Taylor, it seems that CFA's and CFP's need to carve out their niche - can't be all things to all people. I really enjoyed my time learning about Taylor's firm, and his insights on marketing. We are ONE WEEK away from our upcoming virtual event, the SNN Network Virtual Investor Conference - August 3-6, 2020. Keynotes, Speakers, Panels, Presenting Companies are now LIVE on the website.

Ep. 112 - OTC Adventures: Discovering Intriguing Investment Opportunities with Dave Waters, CEO of Alluvial Capital Management

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Dave Waters, CEO of Alluvial Capital Management. This episode has been a long time coming, as I’ve been a fan of Dave’s for a while and he’s one the leading voices in our MicroCap community. Dave gained notoriety from his popular blog OTC Adventures, and has since launched his own fund, Alluvial Capital Management. I had a great time chatting with him, and I think you’ll enjoy all the anecdotes and words of wisdom you’re about to hear. Just also want to be clear that Dave and I spoke prior to COVID-19 being officially labeled a pandemic, which is why we don’t mention it at all during our conversation.Planet MicroCap Podcast is on YouTube!

Ep. 103 - Catching up with OTC Markets and Addressing Critical Issues to MicroCap Ecosystem with Cromwell Coulson, CEO of OTC Markets Group, Inc.

For this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Cromwell Coulson, CEO of OTC Markets Group, Inc., a publicly-traded company, OTCM on the OTCQX. I originally spoke with Cromwell on the podcast in Episode 25. During that episode, we discussed his background, history of OTC Markets, but we focused quite heavily on Reg A+. At that time, August 2016, the JOBS Act rules had just gone into effect in May 2016, and OTC was, and still is, an integral part of that new ecosystem. However, I invited Mr. Coulson back on for a couple reasons:1. I think its important for the MicroCap community to hear from Cromwell and get his latest insights on critical issues that affect our space2. I’ve spoken with many investors both on here, at events, etc…, and wanted to take this opportunity to ask Cromwell some questions that other investors want to know from him3.
