Podcasts about gqg

Rajiv Jain is the Chairman and CIO of GQG Partners, a global equity manager he founded in 2016 that has soared to $160 billion in assets, rebuffing the challenging decade for active managers.    Our conversation covers Rajiv's path from trading in India to his long tenure at Vontobel and founding of GQG. We discuss the periodic crisis lessons that shaped his approach, his definition of quality, team dynamics, and portfolio construction to avoid losses. We then turn to Rajiv's contrarian views, including current significant positions in energy, utilities, steel, tobacco, and emerging markets, avoidance of hyperscalers and semiconductors, and nimbleness to change his mind.   Learn More Follow Ted on Twitter at @tseides or LinkedIn Subscribe to the mailing list Access Transcript with Premium Membership

The ASX 200 fell another 40 points to 8630 (0.5%) as the banks came under intense pressure following the budget last night. Adding to the bank woes was the update from CBA, which shocked the market as bad debts rose and growth was sadly lacking.

The Big Bank Basket fell hard to $260.67 (-7.1%) as the Big Resource Basket soared 2.2%, overtaking the banks.

The ASX struggled today, slipping after an early rise of 0.4% faded, leaving markets unable to secure a fourth gain in five sessions despite a solid start to the week. Financials provided a bright spot with a modest uptick, while consumer discretionary stocks faced their second consecutive day of losses, offsetting gains earlier this month. Retailer Accent Group plunged nearly 12% due to disappointing margins, and fund manager GQG saw a 15% drop amid controversy surrounding Adani Group. On the global stage, Nvidia's earnings exceeded expectations but revealed slower growth forecasts and supply constraints, leading to a 2.5% dip in after-hours trading.

A Copel, Companhia Paranaense de Energia, foi privatizada por R$ 5,2 bilhões nesta terça-feira (8) depois de uma oferta bem-sucedida de ações na Bolsa de São Paulo (B3), incluindo a venda de um lote suplementar, informa o Estadão. O processo foi conduzido depois que o presidente do Tribunal de Contas do Paraná, Fernando Guimarães, derrubou uma medida cautelar que sustava a venda da empresa, concedida pelo conselheiro Maurício Requião, irmão do ex-governador Roberto Requião (PT). Segundo o TCE-PR, Maurício não era responsável por atuar no caso. Os papéis da companhia de energia paranaense foram vendidos a R$ 8,25, ágio de 5% em relação ao preço de referência estabelecido pela empresa (R$ 7,85 por ação). De acordo com o Estadão, a gestora norte-americana GQG se comprometeu a levar US$ 100 milhões (R$ 490 milhões, pela cotação de hoje do dólar) em ações. Fontes do mercado ouvidas pelo jornal paulistano afirmaram que a gestora carioca SPX e o Grupo 3G estão entre os que teriam feito reserva. A venda da Copel foi a primeira privatização com oferta de ações em Bolsa desde a venda da Eletrobras, que movimentou R$ 34 bilhões no ano passado.
