Opportunistic and value-based investments to maximize total return
In a global marketplace where the most attractive investment opportunities are often short-lived and difficult to source, analyze and execute, Anand Capital is positioned to flourish. Anand Capital seeks to capitalize on opportunities that result from irrational markets and emotion surrounding events where the pricing of assets becomes inefficient and deviates from underlying value providing asymmetric returns.
"It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters."

Areas of Experience
We are a diversified investment group seeking risk-adjusted returns in a variety of markets and asset classes
Public Equities
Anand Capital holds a globally diversified portfolio of equities ranging from blue-chip companies to distressed overseas companies. We use fundamental analysis to screen for undervalued equities and technical analysis to time our execution. We have held equities in the US, Russia, India, Brazil, and Canada while ranging across most major sectors. Anand Capital participates in long and short strategies.
Credit
Anand Capital invests in distressed credit when there is a lowering of credit standards and ill-advised extension of credit, accompanied by economic weakness or some other catalyst. When these scenarios occur, the market tends to have an unfair reaction that creates the potential for asymmetric returns.
Forex
Anand Capital creates a long or short thesis on currency pairings based on global economic and social policies. We then execute our trades by utilizing leverage and a blend of technical analysis.
Derivatives
Anand Capital invests in and trades a wide variety of derivatives including options and futures contracts. We utilize the leverage and hedging nature of derivatives to further enhance portfolio returns.
Cryptocurrencies
Anand Capital has invested in cryptocurrencies since 2014. Recent investments include pre-ICO, ICO, and secondary market purchases in a wide variety of coins. Current holdings include BTC, BCH, ETH, LTC as well as numerous alternative coins. Furthermore, Anand Capital utilizes a complex algorithm to arbitrage cross exchange price discrepancies.
Real Estate
Anand Capital looks for distressed assets that require resources to fix the property before sale. We have started to look into Net Lease assets that benefit from long-term, single-tenant leases.
Miscellaneous
Most divisions of Anand Capital have started as a miscellaneous activity until they prove themselves profitable at scale. Current activities include investments in luxury watches, flipping of 'hype' clothing and accessories, investments in signed baseball memorabilia, and flipping of electronic accessories and devices.
