Rubicon Research is an independent long/short equity analyst and investor who focuses on finding deep value and GARP in equities, as well as event-driven special situations. We practice a mix of expectation investing and gauging market psychology as the main tools for our investment decisions. A stock’s price implies a certain expectation for the company. We take a long or short position when the expectation diverges too much from what we believe to be the fundamental value of a company. Investors react to many things, such as anchoring to past beliefs about how things work; chasing trends or momentum, panicking based upon negative news, etc. When fear, crowd herding, or status-quo thinking causes a stock to deviate from its true intrinsic value, we are buyers.
