Embark on an intellectual voyage with me, Michael Gayed, as we unlock the mysteries of macro markets and deep value investing, illuminated by the astute Chris MacIntosh. This episode promises a wealth of insights from Chris's transformation from the high-octane investment banking scene to the strategic foresight required for his own asset management firm. His stories of spotting bubbles and seizing opportunities provide a roadmap for investors looking to navigate the tricky terrain of today's financial landscape.

As we traverse the controversial terrains of distressed asset investing and the energy sector, Chris lays bare the allure of hidden gems within seemingly desolate markets, like the coal industry. His recount of turning an $80 million problem property into a profitable venture stands as testament to the deep value philosophy. Moreover, our discussion raises crucial questions about the energy future and environmental policy, sparked by the debates at COP28, which anyone with an eye on sustainable investments will find invaluable.

To cap off this episode, we dissect the strategic moves within the energy sector, from the capex cycle challenges to the rise of mergers and acquisitions. Chris doesn't shy away from the stark realities of geopolitical unrest, especially in relation to Europe's energy conundrum. Additionally, we scrutinize the alarming trend of investment concentration among global fund managers and the potential market volatility ahead. For those steering through the high seas of investment, Chris offers sage advice and strategies to weather the storms on the horizon.
