The Australian recently profiled our co-founder, Thomas Rice, outlining how we're using AI technology to power our global equities fund at Minotaur Capital. Since launching in November 2023, our $60M fund has delivered strong returns of 42.7 per cent after fees, outperforming the benchmark's 32 per cent. Over the past year, we've returned 21.5 per cent after fees versus 13.6 per cent for the index.
Our investment approach combines fundamental equity research with proprietary AI-powered tools. We've built software called Taurient that scans 172 news sources and analyses 35,000 articles weekly, helping us identify mispriced opportunities across global markets. As Thomas explained:
"Outperformance comes from seeing something others don't, or seeing it earlier."
This technology enabled us to move quickly on European defence stocks, building a significant position within days of geopolitical developments. Our portfolio management strategy focuses on finding companies the market has mispriced, rather than focusing on a style bias toward growth or value.
Having recently secured a rating from research house Zenith, our approach demonstrates how AI can enhance traditional investment management whilst maintaining rigorous fundamental analysis.
