In this episode of **QAV America**, Cameron and Tony dive into the volatile world of commodities, classic value investing strategies, and a surprising value opportunity in **Ford Motor Company (F)**. They unpack how iron ore and wheat commodities are back in a buy state, dig into Rich Pzena’s investing philosophy from a **Tobias Carlisle** interview, and debate whether Ford is a deep value play or a trap. With historical nods to **Cisco (CSCO)**, **GE (GE)**, and **U.S. Steel (X)**, the episode blends macro insights, personal investing war stories, and a no-BS breakdown of Ford’s financials and risks.
In this episode, Cameron and Tony tackle the political earthquake caused by the breakup of Australia’s Federal Coalition, dig into the implications of the RBA’s latest rate cut, and explore how the U.S. credit downgrade might ripple through markets. We hit hot topics from taxing unrealized gains to a lesson in value investing resilience through the lens of a Tobias Carlisle interview with Rich Pzena. We close with a deep pulled pork on Cettire Ltd (CTT), the controversial drop-shipping retailer that’s either misunderstood genius or speculative flameout. Plus: the ASX plays dumb, and Helen Mirren gets name-dropped twice.
In this episode of QAV America, Cameron and Tony wrestle with market chaos as the US–China trade war hits pause. Cameron shares the challenges he faced creating a US buy list, digging into several interesting (and occasionally suspicious) tickers: a mortgage REIT, a Chinese fintech with a Cayman shell, and an impressively renewable-heavy Chilean utility. They debate governance red flags, explore deep value bets versus gut instinct, and examine why Enel Chile (ENIC) might be quietly powering the future.
