How to invest in companies going VIRAL!

We recently featured in a Livewire article discussing viral products and their investment potential. As a global equities fund, we're always on the lookout for unique opportunities in the market. Our own Armina Rosenberg shared insights on companies like Pop Mart and MINISO, which have seen significant growth due to viral products. We've recently backed MINISO, identified by our AI-powered system Taurient, citing its global franchising model, IP co-creation strategy, and digital loyalty engine as key drivers for future growth. Armina explained:

"We recommend that investors look for companies that can demonstrate scalability and margin expansion, with a proven product track record, and at a reasonable valuation," Rosenberg said.

Our approach combines AI-powered analysis with traditional equity research to identify promising stocks globally. While viral products can create investment opportunities, we emphasise the importance of thorough analysis and strategic timing. The article also discusses other companies benefiting from the trend of viral toys and trinkets, as well as the potential of viral food brands. As an Australian-based fund manager, we're committed to delivering strong returns through our global equities strategies and innovative investment approach.
