24: Dislocations, Valuations and the Changing World Order: Why Global Hedge Funds Matter Now - With Stephen Roberts, Founder & CIO of Orgueil Capital
In the investing universe, where long/short hedge funds are fewer and passive has reigned supreme, Orgueil Capital was established in February 2024 as an investment fund with an aspiration to quintuple investment capital over the next 8-9 years!
Founder Stephen Roberts, previously of Horseman Capital, explains why he came out of retirement to run a return-seeking, concentrated, thematic fund (with his family as a cornerstone investor).
He explains how they use a mix of thematic and fundamental research, helped by a macro-overlay to identify a range of opportunities.
Stephen covers why, at the time of recording, they’re long on Chinese technology companies like Alibaba and UK house builders, but short on European car manufacturers.
Whilst he recognises that long/short is not an approach for everyone, he contends it is suitable for a slice of an investor’s allocation.
Stephen’s conviction about the available opportunity set and willingness to back his convictions emphatically means his approach is more reminiscent of many of the hedge funds that were once a much larger part of the investing world. Recorded on 9th June 2025.
