A Liberty Investor's Guide to Latin America

Words, indeed, are powerful things. As an Englishman in America, my personal favorite is freedom. It's embodied by those words penned so long ago by a young Thomas Jefferson... It's the idea that "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." That's not only the foundation for what I believe, but it's also the basis for how I invest. It's a technique I call "Liberty Investing." As such I like to invest in countries and companies whose operations are compatible with freedom, as defined by the Founding Fathers and the best U.S. political and economic traditions. To me, this is ultimately the right way to run both societies and companies. And when we follow them, our returns will be consistently superior over the long term.
