In this episode of The Investors Podcast, Kyle Grieve interviews Jon Cukierwar from SowerPeak Capital Partners about his global investing strategy. Jon discusses his early influences from value investor Bob Robotti, his focus on quality, growth, and value in smaller, often overlooked global stocks, and his preference for foreign markets over U.S. ones. He explains his in-depth research process, including site visits and management discussions, and how he identifies "no-brainer" investments and assesses steady-state earnings. Jon also shares his thoughts on benchmarking against the S&P 500, the advantages of investing in small-cap and international markets, and his approach to managing risk and position sizing. Finally, Jon touches on his current interest in the Japanese market and his plans for managing fund growth.
