Forager Funds Management #3 – Quarterly Report June 2019 VALUE INVESTING: WASN’T MEANT TO BE EASY Speculative tech stocks are back in vogue. Long-term investing is on the nose. Is now the time to give up on Australia’s active fund managers? The result of the demise of value investing and investor withdrawals has been financial erosion, stressful to us all. And there is no real indication that a quick end is in sight. And what do I mean by, “there is no quick end in sight?” What is “end” the end of? “End” is the end of the bear market in value stocks. It is the recognition that equities with cash-on-cash returns of 15 to 25 percent, regardless of their short-term market performance, are great investments. “End” in this case means a beginning by investors overall to put aside momentum and potential short-term gain in highly speculative stocks to take the more assured, yet still historically high returns available in out-of-favour equities. There is a lot of talk now about the New Economy (meaning Internet, technology and telecom). Certainly the Internet is changing the world and the advances from biotechnology will be equally amazing. Technology and telecommunications bring us opportunities none of us have dreamed of. Avoid the Old Economy and invest in the New and forget about price,” proclaim the pundits. And in truth, that has been the way to invest over the last eighteen months. I have great faith though that, “this, too, will pass.” We have seen manic periods like this before and I remain confident that despite the current disfavour in which it is held, value investing remains the best course. The difficulty is predicting when this change will occur and in this regard I have no advantage. What I do know is that there is no point in subjecting our investors to risk in a market which I frankly do not understand. Consequently, after thorough consideration, I have decided to return all capital to our investors, effectively bringing down the curtain. Don’t panic. That’s not me talking. CONCENTRATED INVESTING IS DEAD It’s famous hedge-fund manager Julian Robertson, announcing the This has little to do with the value versus growth argument closure of his highly successful Tiger Fund in March 2000. that has been raging in recent years. While “value” has been An early investor in the Tiger Fund made 85 times their money underperforming “growth” since the financial crisis, I’ve written a in the two decades prior to its closure.

Our specialty has historically been investing in twenty years later, value investing is going through another crisis of underperforming businesses that we think can resurrect themselves. confidence.

  • The Bathurst Bay Hurricane: Media, Memory and Disaster
    The Bathurst Bay Hurricane: Media, Memory and Disaster Ian Bruce Townsend Bachelor of Arts (Communications) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2019 School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry Abstract In 1899, one of the most powerful cyclones recorded struck the eastern coast of Cape York, Queensland, resulting in 298 known deaths, most of whom were foreign workers of the Thursday Island pearling fleets. Today, Australia’s deadliest cyclone is barely remembered nationally, although there is increasing interest internationally in the cyclone’s world record storm surge by scientists studying past cyclones to assess the risks of future disasters, particularly from a changing climate. The 1899 pearling fleet disaster, attributed by Queensland Government meteorologist Clement Wragge to a cyclone he named Mahina, has not until now been the subject of scholarly historical inquiry. This thesis examines the evidence, as well as the factors that influenced how the cyclone and its disaster have been remembered, reported, and studied. Personal and public archives were searched for references to, and evidence for, the event. A methodology was developed to test the credibility of documents and the evidence they contained, including the data of interest to science. Theories of narrative and memory were applied to those documents to show how and why evidence changed over time. Finally, the best evidence was used to reconstruct aspects of the event, including the fate of several communities, the cyclone’s track, and the elements that contributed to the internationally significant storm tide. The thesis concludes that powerful cultural narratives were responsible for the nation forgetting a disaster in which 96 percent of the victims were considered not to be citizens of the anticipated White Australia.

Publication Date 2007 DOI 10.5070/P8251022196 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California EMPLOYEE SHARE OWNERSHIP IN AUSTRALIA: THEORY, EVIDENCE, CURRENT PRACTICE AND REGULATION Ingrid Landau,* Richard Mitchell,** Ann O'Connellt and Ian Ramsay# ABSTRACT Since at least the 1970s, employee share ownership has en- joyed bipartisan support in Australia. Despite broad and sus- tained public policy interest in employee share ownership, Australian literature on the subject remains scarce. There has also been very little in the way of comprehensive analysis of the regulatory framework. This paperprovides an overview of em- ployee share ownership from an Australian perspective. It be- gins by reviewing the literature on broad-based employee share ownership before turning to examine available data on Austra- lian practice. It then considers how employee share ownership plans are currently providedfor in public policy and law. Com- panies in Australia proposing to offer securities to employees must comply with a myriad of regulatory requirements. This paper examines these requirements. It also examines features of the current regulatory framework which have been identified as problematic. CONTENTS 1. INTRODUCTION ................................ 27 2.

It is funded by an Australian Research Council Discovery Project Grant. The project subjects the existing regulatory regime for employee share ownership plans in Australia – in tax, corporate and labour law – to technical and empirical scrutiny. It analyses how current legal regulation structures and constrains the use of ESOPs in Australian enterprises. It examines the current incidence and forms of ESOPs in Australia, the diversity of objectives that such schemes serve, the extent to which current corporate, tax and labour law inhibit ESOPs, and the case for reform of the regulatory framework.
