Established in 2019, Element Macro Research LLC is an independent macro research firm providing differentiated investment views. Drawing from his experience across the hedge fund industry, Michael Coolbaugh founded Element Macro with the goal of generating "buy-side" style research.At Element Macro Research, we don't put a whole lot of weight into price targets as we firmly believe that the future is unknowable and thus forecasting is a futile exercise. We're not sector specialists or fundamental stock experts.Element Macro Research utilizes a top-down macro research approach where we begin with the "big picture" and work our way down into sectors and individual securities as a way to express a given theme. We do that, not by attempting to guess the future like most of your traditional Wall Street firms, but by breaking everything down into four key pillars: Valuation, Liquidity, Sentiment and Technicals.Routinely evaluating these core factors, our goal is simply to put the odds in our favor with an understanding of the larger macro forces at play. But having the odds in your favor isn't good enough. We firmly believe that any fundamental view must be confirmed by the technical picture.Whether you're a fundamental analyst or a pure technician, it is our goal to bridge this gap for our clients and provide a more holistic view of the investment world.Our independence from commissions, deal flow and other conflicts of interest that typically come with bulge bracket firms allows the most thoughtful and unbiased investment conclusions to surface for our clients.
