Quick Take

"Technology-driven global fund launched May 2024 using proprietary AI to identify unique opportunities. Avoids expensive US markets, focusing on Europe and Japan."

Executive Summary

Minotaur Global Opportunities Fund launched in May 2024 with a technology-first approach to global equity investing. The fund uses proprietary AI software called Taurient to screen 5,000 daily news articles and analyze 60,000 global companies, achieving 5x efficiency gains per employee. Core holdings include Italian subsea cable operator Prysmian, positioned for the energy transition with 30% upside potential, and Japanese VTuber company COVER Corporation, which has grown revenue from A$1 million to A$300 million in five years. The fund avoids expensive US markets, preferring Europe and Japan where companies trade at significant discounts while offering exposure to global growth. Key themes include energy transition infrastructure, AI adoption, and the creator economy. The portfolio demonstrates exceptional breadth with holdings spanning a Polish games developer, Singaporean bank, and French construction materials company. Management expects continued innovation through AI technology while maintaining deep fundamental analysis across diverse global opportunities.
