He explained the need behind the criteria:“In a market with huge year-to-date gains, you got to get a little more selective about what you buy.

Looking for a way to “beat the market” in 2024 and beyond?  If so, you’ve probably heard about the market-beating potential of private equity investments.

A couple of years ago, semiconductor specialist Nvidia attempted to acquire a little-known company called Arm Holdings (NASDAQ: ARM).Unfortunately for Nvidia, the company abandoned the deal as long-winded court cases revolving around antitrust concerns seemed to have no end in sight. Following the failed acquisition, Arm pursued an initial public offering (IPO) — hitting the Nasdaq last September.Since going public, Arm stock has surged 138% on the backdrop of the artificial intelligence (AI) movement. But even after such a meteoric rise, I see much better days ahead for Arm. In fact, I think Arm stock will handily outperform Nvidia over…

Investor summits follow a standard recipe. First come the speeches. The 200-odd executives who made it to an international investment summit in London on October 14th heard from Sir Keir Starmer, the prime minister, that after almost a decade of political turmoil in Britain, stability has returned. Labour’s landslide majority on July 4th means that the government’s decisions can be “measured in years, not months”, Sir Keir told The Economist in an interview. Then comes the glitz.
