In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Travis Prentice, CIO of Informed Momentum Company, to break down what he’s seeing beneath the surface of today’s market—and where capital is actually flowing next. We dive into the concept of “Informed Momentum,” where price meets fundamentals, and why a faster, more disciplined approach is critical in a market increasingly driven by AI, infrastructure, and a shift back to the physical economy.

Travis shares why breadth matters more than ever in capturing outsized winners, how to spot high-quality momentum versus noise, and why microcaps—after a long stretch of underperformance—may be setting up for a meaningful turn. This is a conversation focused on process, discipline, and staying aligned with what the market is doing—not what you think it should do. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I’m not a shareholder in any of them.
