Travel That Pays Dividends (Literally)

"Partnering" with The Oxford Club is more than buying sage investing advice... SPECIAL OPPORTUNITIES [The Oxford Club Special Opportunities]( Travel That Pays Dividends (Literally) Matt Benjamin, Senior Macroeconomic Analyst, The Oxford Club [Matt Benajmin] From Baltimore - Once a very frequent flyer, I boarded an airplane for the first time since 2019 last week. If not exactly scary, the flying experience has certainly been dramatically altered from the way it was before this prolonged pandemic. Airports are about half (or less) as populated as I remember, everyone is tightly (and some doubly) masked, boarding is significantly spaced out and no passenger on my jet had to sit next to a stranger. While I usually depend on a glass or two of cabernet to relax during a flight, this one offered nothing beyond water and snack mix for refreshment. I don't know whether that's now standard across airlines. I do know it was disappointing. The tone, too, was somehow different. The convivial atmosphere I've often enjoyed on flights - strangers happy to be traveling somewhere (or anywhere!) together - was conspicuously absent. Passengers tended to keep to themselves. All eyes I sought seemed to avoid mine. So flying - to me at least - is a bit more nerve-wracking and much less enjoyable now. I used to love air travel, but now I'm somewhat indifferent to it. This too will change with time, but probably not soon. Experiencing the Beauty of a Maine Resort Yet this trip was well worth it. My destination - the beautiful rocky cliffs of southern Maine - was glorious, the dry and chilly air a dramatic and welcome change from sweaty Baltimore. The North Atlantic waters clawing furiously at the coastline night and day - which couldn't be more different from the pacific beaches of Maryland and Delaware - only added to the sense of adventure and travel. The venue was Cliff House in Cape Neddick, Maine. The event was The Oxford Club's September 2020 Private Wealth Seminar. Here's a beautiful photo I took with my phone... [Cliff House in Maine] To be honest, I almost skipped this event. But in hindsight, I'm truly glad I went, despite the sudden drabness of flying. Over the course of my three days in Maine, I had lobster three times, oysters twice, and haddock and shrimp once each. I located plenty of the cabernet I'd wanted on the flight. In between all the seafood, I listened to presentations by Oxford Club strategists and other experts on markets, investing, trading and speculating, as well as insightful asides and discussions of the U.S. and global economies, the pandemic, and the upcoming elections. Chief Investment Strategist Alexander Green presented twice during the two-day event. On Day One, he spoke about an undervalued investment opportunity he really likes right now. Day Two brought his talk on two investment strategies that really work in this market. Alex has been in this business for a long time... In fact, he recently celebrated his 20th anniversary at The Oxford Club. And those two decades followed several more as a broker and asset manager. He's attempted countless strategies during that time. So when he shares two strategies he really believes in, people listen. Major Research Chief Income Strategist Marc Lichtenfeld talked about biotech stocks. But he didn't just tout a few he sees as big potential winners in coming months and years. Even more impressive to me was that Marc went on at length about the biotech stocks to avoid and why. The research he put into this presentation - hours and hours of poring over company press releases, insider buying, company capital raises, and Food and Drug Administration approvals - was incredible. David Fessler, the Club's Energy and Infrastructure Strategist, shared his research and analysis of what he calls the $1.3 trillion "New Economy" and how investors can participate in it. And Dave doesn't just talk about this stuff... He lives it. He powers his home with solar arrays and drives an electric car, and he's the author of a sophisticated, exhaustively researched book on the topic, The Energy Disruption Triangle: Three Sectors That Will Change How We Generate, Use, and Store Energy. I should also mention Chief Growth Officer Nathan Hurd. Nate's presentation didn't focus on investing. Instead, he brought some deep and valuable insights about how to survive and thrive personally through this - or any - crisis. (He has an ongoing video series on this topic too. If you'd like to watch one of his videos, "Easy Ways to Reduce Stress - Starting Today," [just click here]( I could go on and on about the other experts, strategists and gurus who presented, but I'll briefly jump to the audience. We Can't Thank Our Club Members Enough for Participating The majority of those who attended in person are Chairman's Circle Members. That is, they've chosen to "Partner" with The Oxford Club and our strategists, researchers and staff to better their futures. There were also about 500 people who watched the event online. After the conference ended, we got a lot of positive feedback from attendees - both those who made the trip and those who participated virtually. One comment stood out to me. This attendee particularly liked the talks by Dave Fessler and Nate Hurd. "What I valued in these presentations," the attendee wrote, "is the authenticity of the speakers and their ability to connect their audience to the subject matter." That sounds exactly right. So what's my point? After attending an event like this, it strikes me that joining with The Oxford Club in a more substantial way is about more than purchasing a product, service or sage investing advice. It's about "Partnering" for life with an organization that brings a holistic approach to improving your future. That means your finances and retirement, of course, but much more too. I would add cultural enrichment, as well as self-actualization and empowerment. And let's not forget the cliffs, the sea and the fresh air on this trip. And the food. My God, the food! So there's a good deal of enjoyment to be had with the Club too. I plan to attend the next big Club event. I hope to see you there.
