Small/microcap Research —>

ROE The Boat is a monthly newsletter for active stock pickers.

In every issue we publish research on profitable growing small/microcaps trading at decent prices, that are yet to be discovered by the masses.


What to expect

Every month you can expect a research report delivered in PDF format that highlights one or a selection of public companies that we feel are worthy of your attention.

The majority of these companies featured have the following characteristics -

Profitable, healthy balance sheets, high returns on capital, high insider ownership, dividend payers. Listed on exchanges in USA, Canada, Europe, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and Australia.

Take Huationg Global for example, an ignored microcap trading on the Singapore Stock Exchange. We wrote about this in March, when it was trading on an absurdly cheap PE of 2.5. There was no mention of it on X or Substack. Since posting the share price has doubled.

Another example is Dream International Ltd that we also highlighted in March. A small cap in Hong Kong that at the time was trading on a PE of 4 with a dividend yield of 12%. The shares have since gone up by 251%.

These are just two examples of the what can be found if you turn over enough rocks, and look where others aren’t.
