Equity & Macro Research

Cutting through narrative to focus on signal.

I build deep-dive equity theses, macro context, and process-driven frameworks to understand how businesses create value and how markets price risk.

Tools & Methods
Signal Sift

A value investing tool built by AI agents for finding directional trends, meant for quick reads on where the S&P 500 has moved and which names are worth a closer look. It measures every name across eleven trailing windows, from one day to five years, so a large cap that went sideways while the index ran is easy to isolate. Clicking one opens its fundamentals, analyst coverage, and SEC filings.

Private Credit & Regulation
The Case for Regulating Private Credit: Blue Owl, Broken Promises, and the $2.3 Trillion Gap

Uses Blue Owl Capital to show what happens when scale outruns oversight. Walks through the four structural risks at Blue Owl, the same pattern at Ares, Apollo, and Blackstone, and four fixes the EU and Australia have begun adopting while the U.S. has not.

Macro & Sovereign Risk
The Unraveling Guarantee: Has the U.S. Lost Its Exorbitant Privilege?

A thorough look into U.S. federal debt, structural unsustainability, and the rising probability of implicit default through inflation, financial repression, and dollar debasement, arguing the fiscal position can no longer be stabilized through any politically plausible adjustment, and what that means for Treasuries, the dollar, and the exorbitant privilege.

Research streams

Most projects fall into these buckets that talk to each other: company work, macro context, and process.

  • Single-name deep dives: unit economics, competitive dynamics, and valuation versus peers.
  • Macro + factor work: regimes, rates, style rotations, and sector/region spreads.
  • ETF and index analysis: building simple ways to express views without stock picking.
  • Methods notes: model setups, sanity checks, and process frameworks.

How I like to work

I start with the business and cash flows, then layer macro and sentiment on top. I care about the difference between "great companies" and "great stocks", and I use data to pressure-test stories rather than replace judgment.

This site is a living notebook. Over time I'll link more decks, notes, and code so you can see exactly how the conclusions were built.
