Pick Winners or Exclude Losers?

Finding winners is hard. What if it is easier to simply XOUT the losers? A new paradigm for excluding potential laggards in an age of technological disruption.

As opposed to identifying winners, the XOUT approach is simple – look to cut out the losers and you’re left with a portfolio that may be better positioned to outpace the broader market. Whereas even the most talented managers have struggled to select winners, even an unskilled manager may be able to identify multiple losers, especially those with businesses fundamentally challenged by technology.

The rise of passive indexing has been a textbook example of a disrupter successfully challenging an industry incumbent, namely active stock picking, that failed to effectively innovate. Despite passive’s momentous growth, the strategy is not perfect. Potentially, the greatest flaw of index investing is that the strategy buys indistinctively every stock in the market, even those in long-term secular decline.

This presentation will cover:

  • The XOUT Investment Philosophy
  • Rationale for avoiding losers
  • Analysis of top 10 “danger stocks” or XOUTs
  • Performance attribution
