When it comes to growth investing, big US tech stocks are often seen as the go-to option. However, professional investors are now looking to diversify into other areas of global stock markets, in search of fast-growing companies that are set to dominate the future.
This week, Claer interviews fund manager James Thomson, who has been managing the £4bn Rathbone global opportunities fund for the past 20 years. In this episode, he shares his “special sauce” for investing in growth stocks, reflects on his biggest mistakes, and imparts the core lessons he has learned from navigating through various economic crises.
