To me, it is a weird one.
I enjoy businesses that produce and deliver something critical - useful to society (in many different fashion - may it be Netflix for entertainment, Railroads like CP, or MedTech).
However, I found myself coming back regularly to check on some asset management companies "simply" because I like their philosophy and because they have stood the test of time.
One example, and you might to like it (usually I get frowned upon when I post European stocks) is Investor AB.
What I particularly like is their absolute focus on (ultra) long-term quality companies - not hype - with extreme and rigorous discipline so typical for the Scandinavian countries.
It is not fees that drive them, but direct ownnership of quality compounding companies that create value.
Everything points to this vision. From management - to the companies they hold and through the foundation (wallenberg) that has a huge voting right.
They have large and broad exposure (public, private, and private equities via EQT AB - another interesting company)
What about you ?
Do you like that sector ? And if yes, do you hold companies or have some in your watchlist you find particularly interesting ?
