Now Available: Information Sheet on CEILING & the Strategy Behind GAIA

I’ve been dark for a bit longer than expected, due to a combination of Novatero and non-Novatero items, as well as a blog post idea that’s been on the cusp for a bit and just hasn’t materialized yet (expect it soon!). However, that doesn’t mean that there’s a dearth of information to discuss.

One of the interesting things about Novatero as-is involves its current setup. Novatero and the GAIA fund strategy are currently structured as an incubator fund, essentially functioning as a mostly-autonomous LLC and fund under the umbrella of an established group of funds. It is an ideal setup for establishing a track record, as it allows the fund manager to work on the track record without having to worry about a lot of the admisitrative tasks that tend to crop up. However, there are limitations to an incubator fund: it cannot accept outside capital to incorporate into the fund and it cannot fully market the fund. It’s the equivalent of training wheels; you get the ability to try out and learn about running a fund, but someday you’ll need to take those wheels off and learn to balance yourself.

However, this doesn’t limit the discussion of the methodology behind the fund. Research is a mostly academic exercise until implemented into the fund. Therefore, information regarding the strategy that is not currently being used in the incubator fund is fair game for discussion.

With that in mind, I have written an information sheet on the strategy behind GAIA and CEILING. I cannot post it here since I need to limit it to accredited and professional investors. If you are accredited and/or professional, feel free to drop me a message via the ‘Contact’ section of the site and I will send the sheet along to you.

Until next time.
