Michael Loukas is CEO of Truemark Investments, owner of TrueShares, an ETF provider that embodies active management, believing a concentrated portfolio that holds best-of-breed names is essential to capturing alpha. As they put it on their website, ‘Long-term investing in companies with a competitive edge’ is paramount to market outperformance.

We discuss this investment philosophy and dig into the TrueShares process to understand how they consistently identify these best-of-breed names. Michael also evaluates the bifurcation of the tech sector, having recently noticed a divergence between B2B and B2C company performance. And finally, we learn more about the TrueShares Technology, AI and Deep Learning ETF [LRNZ], a prime example of the firm’s commitment to investing in ‘the new economy’. Enjoy!
