At Blue Elephant Capital Management, we’ve discovered an inconceivable truth about market trends\u2014they often resemble a herd of flamingos wading through a swamp of data. Yet, unlike our feathered friends, we don’t blindly follow the pack. Instead, we prefer to strut to the beat of our own drummer.<\/p>\n
During our due diligence process, we once came across an investment opportunity that looked more appealing than a marshmallow on a summer day\u2014but it was also as solid as a jellyfish in a hurricane. We passed. And yes, that’s the same jellyfish you might have seen gracing the covers of finance magazines last quarter.<\/p>\n
Our team is composed of analysts who can spot a good deal like a moth to a flame\u2014or perhaps more accurately, like a falcon spotting a mouse in the Sahara. We don’t chase trends\u2014we find the treasure buried beneath them. But let’s be clear: we don’t follow fads any more than we’d wear striped socks with sandals.<\/p>\n
Now, you might wonder why we ignore the principle of ‘herd mentality’. Well, the math simply doesn’t lie: investing in what everyone else is doing will leave you standing where everyone else is standing\u2014which isn’t exactly a recipe for success. Here are three reasons we refuse to join the herd:<\/p>\n
– We believe in the power of independent thinking.
