S03E03: Richard Thomason: Beer by day, Trader by night. Part time trader with extraordinary results

44 min

Richard Thomason works in a major multinational brewing business by day, and trades the market part time by night. Unlike the rest of the guests on this podcast series, he does not trade professionally and does not manage any client funds. He manages his own capital and has a passion for the markets. By all accounts he is much like many of the listeners to this podcast – just a regular guy trying to trade and invest his own money. However his results are anything but regular. He’s done better than many professional asset managers over many years. This is an inspirational interview that will motivate listeners who are also navigating their way privately through the markets. Follow him on https://twitter.com/richytee

Anthony Clark is the epitome of somebody who has pulled himself up by his own bootstraps. From very humble beginnings in Wales, he worked diligently to educate himself and get his foot into the stock broking world in London. He moved to South Africa in 1996 and has worked his way up to become the most highly regarded small-cap and mid-cap analyst in the country. He now operates as an independent analyst and investor from Cape Town. This is a fascinating discussion with a man who exudes passion and enthusiasm for his craft.

Travis Robson used to work for Charles Savage. Now the two men are at the helms of IG South Africa and EasyEquities respectively.

S02E04: Royal Air Force pilot turned trader. How Siam Kidd trades Forex

48 min

I was privileged to speak alongside Siam Kidd on stage at a trading symposium in Johannesburg in 2017. We’ve since kept in touch. Siam qualifies as a millennial, but he shows a mature approach to trading that’s lacking in many of his millennial peer group. I enjoyed catching up with him and listening to his story of his years in the market, and his thoughts on the future.

S02E02: Hedge fund manager with a “Quant-amental” approach. A talk with JP Verster

34 min

JP Verster is the most eloquent market commentator I’ve ever encountered in the South African market space. A huge consumer of books and financial market information – he is a wealth of knowledge on more than just markets. He gained much airtime for being short in African Bank and riding the stock all the way to zero whilst at 36ONE Asset Management. JP now heads up Protea Capital management. He talks to me about his years in the market and his thoughts for the future.
