"The Weird Shit Investing conference is where you will find some of your best investment ideas for the year."
One participant of the recent "Weird Shit Investing" event in London couldn't contain his enthusiasm.
Once again, for the second year in a row, Weird Shit Investing was about pitching investment ideas that are:
- Truly original.
- Rooted in independent thinking.
- Very lucrative (potentially!).
- Accessible to professional investors.
- Fun to learn about.
The outcome?
"Weird Shit Investing 2025 – The Manual", a summary of 49 "weird shit" investing ideas presented at the events in Hong Kong, London, and New York.
It's out now, and entirely for free, for subscribers of the Weekly Dispatches (a download link is included in the 4 July 2025 Weekly Dispatch email).
Some of the manual's highlights
While it's difficult to pick favourites, you really shouldn't miss the following:
- An African electricity company with a p/e of 1.
- British investment trusts so cheap you want to buy them for the grandchildren.
- A US tax shell with an asymmetric return profile.
The manual also boasts some bonus content, such as
- Interviews with six participants, all top investment minds sharing their strategies and outside-the-box thinking.
- A chapter on Panthera Resources (ISIN GB00BD2B4L05, UK:PAT), a "weird shit" litigation investment with an extraordinarily large upside. Don't miss this article for an update on recent developments.
Did we mention all of this comes for free?
What next for Weird Shit Investing?
The Weird Shit Investing conference will return in 2026 (check out www.weirdshitinvesting.com for more details). Just to be clear – the event is SOLELY about publicly traded securities; strictly no crypto, PE, VC, real estate, or alternative investments like stamps and whiskey barrels.
If you feel you have something to say that would make you the right speaker for such a gathering of minds, then do get in touch with a few sentences about yourself.
In the meantime, enjoy your free Weird Shit Investing manual.
