Investor, Surfer, Freethinker: The Contrarian’s Playbook with Hugh Hendry

The Monday Call

Summary

Hugh Hendry is an award-winning hedge fund manager, investment thought leader, and surfer.

Hugh founded Eclectica in 2005, a London-based global macro fund known for its high-conviction, contrarian approach. Shortly after launching Eclectica, Hugh gained recognition with impressive returns of 50% in its second year and over 30% in 2008 during the height of the Global Financial Crisis.

Although Eclectica has since closed, Hugh remains an active and influential market commentator. Reflecting his commitment to creative freedom in investing, he once said, “I have always been a heretic and argued against the consensus. I have always been angry.”

Join us for a lively discussion with Hugh as we explore today’s investment landscape, hear his views on the U.S. election, his skepticism toward mainstream economic policies, and his belief in the value of reading broadly as a source of inspiration for business and investing.
