My name is Daria Naumova. I’m a student studying a Bachelor of Arts in Economics and Management at the University of Westminster in London. During my first year, I realized I greatly enjoyed learning about and conducting financial analysis as well as the general process of equity research, leading me to do so in my free time. Writing for Seeking Alpha provides an opportunity to formalize my research and share my analyses with a broader audience. It also allows me to receive feedback on my ideas, which is valuable for my growth as a prospective analyst. Outside of finance, my hobbies include software development and programming. Consequently, my personal portfolio is heavily weighted in the tech sector. However, I am also keen on identifying high-quality opportunities in more traditional sectors, such as Utilities and Consumer Goods. My investment strategy focuses on evaluating a company’s growth potential by thoroughly understanding its operations and strategy. I support my investment theses with a detailed analysis of financials, leadership, strategic initiatives, market dynamics, and the competitive environment. I believe that a comprehensive investment decision requires both quantitative and qualitative analysis methods, as each complements the other in forming a well-rounded view.
