We were thrilled to join the Sweat Capital podcast on YotTube to discuss how technology is transforming stock picking and our journey building Minotaur Capital, an Australian-based global equities fund. As co-founder and co-PM, Armina Rosenberg shared insights into our innovative approach to investment management, which combines fundamental equity research with cutting-edge AI technology.
Our proprietary platform, Taurient, represents a significant evolution in portfolio management. We've developed AI agents dedicated to every stock in our portfolio, enabling us to maintain deep coverage across diverse global markets from German defence companies to Japanese entertainment firms.
Since launching in May 2024, we've delivered 23% per annum returns, approximately 6 percentage points ahead of the market, whilst maintaining lower drawdowns. This performance reflects our focus on idiosyncratic, diversified ideas across geographies and sectors. As Armina noted during the conversation:
"our edge is our fund managers... And Taurient is designed to accelerate us"
Our approach demonstrates that active management enhanced by technology — not replaced by it — creates sustainable advantages in global equities strategies. To read the article, click the link below.
