Our Philosophy
​
​
Be Different
​
“[B]eing different is absolutely essential if you want a chance at being superior…[be] active in unusual market niches; buying things others haven’t found, don’t like or consider too risky to touch.”
Howard Marks
​
​
Play in the Easy Game
​
“In the search for market inefficiencies, it helps to get to a market early, before it becomes understood, popular and respectable. There’s nothing like playing in an “easy game” – an inefficient asset class – where the other investors are few, ill-informed or biased negatively. That’s far easier than trying to be the smartest person in a game that everyone understands and is eager to play.”
Howard Marks

​
Our Strategies
​
​
We partner and form private investment vehicles, with domain experts in sectors generally characterized as highly capital constrained and having barriers to entry either from real business advantages (tech-enabled processes, specialty sourcing etc.) or significant regulation. We allocate capital to asymmetric investments with a significant probability of generating high, absolute returns, safely and consistently, with low correlation to traditional asset classes.
​
​
Sachem Cove, Uranium Focused Strategy
​
​
We seek to take advantage of the significant dislocation in the Uranium mining sector and intend to deploy capital into a highly selective group of public equities and private financings in the Uranium sector.
​
​
Bespoke Vehicles
​
We create special purpose investment vehicles across private and public markets with a primary focus of seeking to identify and monetize capital-constrained opportunities with high, absolute return potential.
