In this video, we are joined by Vuk Vuković (@wolf_vukovic), the CIO and co-founder of Oraclum Capital (@OraclumCapital). Over the past decade, Vuk has applied his academic research in political economics to accurately predict the outcomes of the past two U.S. elections and the Brexit referendum, as well as influence policy in his home country of Croatia.

Following the pandemic, Vuk and his co-founders sought to monetize their predictive success, leading them to the financial markets. Today, they use the wisdom of crowds and their understanding of social networks to outperform markets with their hedge fund. Vuković graciously joined Physik Invest’s Market Intelligence podcast to discuss his career, research, starting and operating a hedge fund, trading psychology, and investment processes.

The host of today's conversation is Renato Leonard Capelj (@renatolcapelj), the founder of Physik Invest and managing director at Benzinga, a data and content provider for finance and media companies. Capelj's past works as a journalist at Benzinga include conversations with investor Kevin O’Leary, ARK Invest’s Catherine Wood, FTX’s Sam Bankman-Fried, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, Lithuania's Minister of Economy and Innovation Aušrinė Armonaitė, and former Cisco chairman and CEO John Chambers.
