Indexed Public Market Investing
We believe that index investing will continue to surpass individual stock picking as the most reliable way to generate positive long-term returns from the public markets. Livingston Capital Fund, LP is a partnership that invests in public market indices, both long and short. Our firm seeks to identify narrow market indices that are likely to underperform the broader market, and we maintain short positions in these indices. We rarely trade, thus reducing the short-term tax burden to our LPs. And current tax laws allow us to opportunistically harvest investment losses while maintaining our targeted investment exposure. We maintain a net long exposure above 100% to take advantage of historically rising markets in the US.
