Equity Bottom-Up

With each passing day, Tesla's date with destiny draws closer. Bears have stayed away from the stock, and we can tell because some of the top growth investors do not own it. That means they are bearish because a growth investor bypassing Tesla is equivalent to a coffee aficionado going decaf.

Amazon reported a robust set of 1Q earnings with beats across the board. The big surprise from Amazon was its decision to increase its annual US Prime membership to $119 a year from $99 a year. We believe Amazon has done so because a) its free cash flow inc. leases is down by 83% over the past 12 months and AMZN a slight net cash position now vs 13bn in cash a year ago (inc. acquisitions) and b) Price increases should be 'absorbed' by the US consumer a la Netflix despite a slowdown in pure…

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.
