Scopia employs a fundamentals-based, value-driven investment approach across two strategies: a long-short equity strategy managed with the discipline of market neutrality and a long-only equity strategy. The firm seeks to identify investments primarily in publicly-traded equities (on both US and non-US exchanges), including IPOs, and conversely to identify and sell short stocks that they believe will drop in value (or at least under-perform) regardless of the industry and the market’s overall direction.

Harspring's Funds seeks to achieve superior rates of return over a multi-year period of time by investing in a select number of securities that offer highly compelling risk-reward profiles while selling short a select number of securities for both absolute return generation as well as hedging purposes. The Funds’ investments consist primarily of publicly-traded equities (on both US and foreign exchanges), but may also include options, derivatives, bonds, and to a limited degree, privately-held securities or other investments without a readily ascertainable market value. The firm utilizes fundamental analysis of individual securities, in the context of the industries in which they operate.
