My guest this week is Jason Segal, the Armchair Analyst. Jason covers the biotech and small-cap stock sector. Jason defines the "bet" for each company: how investors make money at the current price, plus the risks. The U.S. market dominates due to FDA approvals and high drug sales. Companies license rights elsewhere but hold U.S. rights for big payoffs.

In this Weekend Watchlist episode, I chat with Cameron Riley from the QAV Investing Podcast to dive deep into AMTD IDEA Group (NYSE: AMTD) – a wildly undervalued stock trading at just 0.77x price to operating cash flow and a massive 96% discount to book value! If the books are to be believed...

Using Tony Kynaston's proven QAV methodology (which has delivered double market returns over 30+ years), we break down why this diversified conglomerate (media, entertainment, luxury hospitality, fintech) topped the US buy list this week – despite controversies, meme-like volatility from its AMTD Digital (NYSE: HKD) spinoff, legal dramas, and a colourful CEO history.

Is AMTD a hidden gem or too risky? We focus purely on the fundamentals: ultra-low valuation, strong cash generation, and QAV checklist scores. Not investment advice – just transparent value stock picking education!

Discover how to pick winning stocks and beat the S&P 500 with Tony Kynaston's proven QAV (Quality at Value) investing methodology.

It's a systematic checklist for identifying undervalued quality companies, timing buys and sells with a "three-point trend line" and avoiding market noise. QAV America has delivered 64% returns since September 2023 vs. the S&P 500's 54%, perfect for beginners and pros seeking long-term compounding.

Learn about the checklist manifesto, operating cash flow focus, and why QAV is expanding to cover US stocks.

My guest this week is Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium Corporation. Thomas brings a unique background to the table—he started in classics and law before diving into mining. We discussed his journey from building a gold producer in Mexico to leading uranium projects in the US after a pivot from Niger due to a military coup.

Thomas explained the uranium sector's dynamics. The world produces about 160 million pounds annually but consumes 200 million, with stockpiles dwindling. This drives prices from $30 to $75 per pound. Kazakhstan leads production at 43%, while the US consumes 50 million pounds but produces under 1 million. Australia hosts the largest deposit at Olympic Dam.

Tony Kynaston is a former senior executive of companies like Coles and Shell. He started investing in the stock market 30 years ago and developed a simple checklist methodology (by studying people like Warren Buffett) that allowed him to retire from his corporate career at age 43 and become a professional investor. And he’s done pretty well since then. The average return on his portfolio over the last 20 years has been 19.5% per annum – double the ASX index. QAV stands for QUALITY AT VALUE. Tony's approach is to use a checklist to find companies that are performing well (quality) but which can also be bought at a discount (value). It's basically what is usually called "value investing".

My guest this week is Richard Hemming from Under the Radar Report. He shares three key investing lessons from his experience investing in small caps on the ASX. Richard starts with diversification. He stresses its importance in small caps due to higher volatility. Under the Radar limits any stock to 10% of a portfolio. They hold 14 to 20 stocks in flagship portfolios and 14 to 16 in dividend ones. Richard buys small positions first—1% or 2%—and builds to 5%. If it hits 10%, he takes profits.

My guest this week is James Gruber, editor of Firstlinks and a veteran of Asian markets with a background in journalism and funds management. We dive into his contrarian views on dividend stocks and gold's role in portfolios. Our discussion stems from James's article "Why I Dislike Dividend Stocks." He drew from David Gardner of Motley Fool, who achieved seven 100-baggers—stocks returning 100 times or more. Gardner held Amazon from 1997 and Nvidia from 2005, both up over 1,000 times.

In the world of investing, success often hinges on more than just numbers and market trends. Too much financial commentary focuses on investments rather than the people investing. There are way too many aspirational messages that lack the practical steps to put a plan in action. In the latest podcast episode, I welcome Shani Jayamanne, co-author of the book "Invest Your Way: How to Grow Your Wealth on Your Terms." co-authored with Mark Lamonica.

Repeat Episode. Have been busy this week at the ASA QLD Invstor Summit on the Gold Coast. Saw Michael Kemp again and thought that this episode bore a repeat for all of the great investing insights.

What does an epic poem written around 700BC tell us about investing? How are investors tempted to steer their money onto the rocks of investing underperformance? My guest is Michael Kemp, author of The Ulysses Contract.

There's plenty of great lessons in this interview & much more in the book. There's a lot to avoid but as Michael says: "Don't be discouraged by all the negative arguments I'm putting forth. I don't believe you need to become a champion to become a really good investor. Market returns are fantastic returns as long as you achieve them. Don't try and shoot for the stars cuz you're probably full flat on your face. But if you accept that you're gonna be delivered market returns and you are patient, then market returns can be spectacular returns given the power of compounding."

In this episode I chat with Michael Kemp, author of three investment books—Creating Real Wealth, Uncommon Sense, and The Ulysses Contract. Our conversation was inspired by Michael’s presentation at the 2025 Australian Shareholders Association conference, diving deeply into the quirks of human psychology and how they shape our investing decisions. Our brains are wired for survival in a prehistoric world, often leading us astray in modern financial markets. Michael pointed out that our ancestors needed to make snap judgments to avoid becoming a predator’s lunch. This instinct to form quick beliefs based on minimal evidence was life-saving back then but can be disastrous for investors today.

My guest in this episode is the always welcome Tony Kynaston from QAV. Today, we dove into intrinsic value and company valuations.

Tony explained valuation as a heat map. No single number pins down a company’s worth. He uses multiple methods to gauge value. Companies get valued by assets or earnings. Think of your house—it’s valued by comparing recent sales in your area. A coffee shop works the same way. Its assets, like the premises or equipment, have comparable values. Earnings matter too. Tony uses a discounted cash flow to estimate how long it takes to recover the asking price.

Tobias has a unique background in social anthropology, bringing a perspective to investing that was as refreshing as it was profound. What started as a discussion about global small cap companies evolved into a deep dive into human behaviour, cultural constructs, and the art of asking the right questions.

This episode features Scott Phillips from The Motley Fool. Scott’s an investment guru, a Roosters tragic, and a master at cutting through the noise, whether it’s markets or political clown shows.

We kicked off with three simple words: Invest, add, wait. Honestly, I could’ve ended the episode right there—it’s that powerful. It’s the essence of long-term investing, a mantra that echoes Aesop’s tortoise and hare. Scott’s been at this game long enough to know there’s nothing new under the sun—Ben Graham nailed it in the 1930s, and the rest is just tweaking the recipe.

In this episode I sit down with Vince Scully, founder of Life Sherpa, to unpack the booming world of private credit funds listing on the ASX. With nearly a billion dollars raised in 2025 alone (or about $700 million by Vince’s count), these funds are catching the eye of retail investors chasing higher yields. But with opportunity comes with risk—and regulators are sounding the alarm.
