About Marco Bozem

What This Platform Covers

MB Capital Strategies Global publishes independent, original research on hard-asset dividend investing. The core focus areas are:

• Shipping stocks — Tanker and dry bulk operators: charter rate analysis, fleet utilization, variable dividend policies, and cycle positioning. Coverage includes VLCC, Suezmax, MR tankers, LNG carriers, and LPG vessels.
• Mining equities — Royalty and streaming companies, senior producers, and select junior developers. Analysis focuses on All-In Sustaining Costs, reserve life, dividend stability, and free cash flow generation relative to commodity price assumptions.
• Energy upstream — Oil and gas producers with fixed and variable dividend frameworks, breakeven analysis, and production trajectory. Special focus on companies with sub-$40 WTI breakevens that can sustain distributions through the cycle.
• Midstream pipelines — Fee-based infrastructure generating predictable, contractual income from volume throughput. Distribution coverage, leverage ratios, and long-term contract visibility are the primary metrics.
• Yield-on-Cost and cashflow tools — Eight free calculators for dividend investors: YOC projections, snowball simulations, DRIP modeling, and shipping cashflow analysis.

What Kind of Messages Are Welcome

This is a lean operation — not a customer service desk. But the following types of messages get prompt, thoughtful responses:

• Factual corrections — If you spot a calculation error, outdated figure, or factual inaccuracy in any research article, please flag it with a source. Accuracy is the top priority on this platform.
• Research requests — Suggestions for stocks, sectors, or topics that would benefit from independent analysis. No guarantees of coverage, but good ideas get considered for the research queue.
• Tool feedback — Bug reports or feature requests for the free calculator tools. If something is broken or behaves unexpectedly, that matters.
• Affiliate & partnership inquiries — Relevant to hard-asset, dividend, or commodity investing platforms only. Contextual placements, not banner spam. Review the affiliate disclosure first.
• Media & content licensing — Requests to republish, cite, or reference research content. Attribution requirements apply.

What does not receive responses: unsolicited trading signals, promotional spam, stock tips, or messages requesting investment advice. This platform does not provide investment advice in any form. Every article carries a disclaimer to that effect.

Research Philosophy at MB Capital Strategies Global

This platform publishes analysis from the perspective of a private investor who holds the positions he discusses. That context shapes every aspect of how research is produced — and it is worth being explicit about what that means in practice.

Ownership forces honesty. When you hold TORM shares and CMB.Tech as your largest positions, you cannot afford comfortable narratives. Bad analysis costs you real money. Every bullish case has to survive a genuine attempt to falsify it — what would have to be true for this thesis to be wrong, and how likely is that scenario? That adversarial framing is built into the research process here in a way that third-party analyst reports rarely achieve.

Cycle awareness over yield chasing. The hard-asset sectors covered here — shipping, mining, energy, pipelines — are structurally cyclical. Dividend yields of 10–20% at cycle peaks are not permanent income; they are a combination of elevated commodity revenues and market skepticism about sustainability. The core analytical question is always: what does this company generate at mid-cycle prices, and is that enough to sustain the dividend? Yield-on-cost analysis only makes sense when the underlying cash flow is durable.

Primary sources, not aggregators. Every factual claim in the research here — earnings per share, dividend amounts, AISC figures, TCE rates, reserve estimates — is checked against the original company filing, earnings release, or exchange announcement before publication. Financial data aggregators are useful for screening, but they introduce errors that compound when you are making decisions on specific hard-asset companies with complex payout structures. The correction policy on this site reflects that commitment: factual errors are corrected transparently, with the source cited.

Independent, not sponsored. No company has ever paid for coverage on this platform. Analysis priorities are driven by personal portfolio interest and reader questions. When a company is analyzed favorably, it is because the cash flow and cycle positioning support that view — not because of any commercial relationship. The affiliate partnerships disclosed on this site (primarily broker referrals and financial data tools) are contextual and disclosed; they do not influence which companies get covered or how.

If that research approach sounds useful to your own investment process, the platform exists to be a starting point — not a replacement — for your own analysis. Read the original filings. Listen to the earnings calls. Form your own view. That is what the author does, and what any serious income investor should do.

How to Get the Most Out of MB Capital Strategies Global

A few practical suggestions for readers who are new to the platform and want to use it effectively as part of their research process:

• Start with the sector guides: Before diving into individual company analyses, read the sector overview pages — Shipping, Mining, Pipelines, and Energy. These provide the structural context that makes company-level analysis meaningful. A tanker stock analysis only makes sense if you understand how charter rate cycles work. A mining dividend thesis only holds if you understand AISC dynamics.
• Use the calculators as stress-testing tools: The free calculator suite includes a yield-on-cost projector, dividend snowball model, and shipping cashflow calculator. Use these not to confirm what you want to hear, but to stress-test positions — what does the YOC look like if dividends grow at 4% instead of 10%? What does your income stream look like at mid-cycle TCE rates instead of peak rates?
• Read the portfolio page with appropriate context: The portfolio page shows the public broker accounts (Trade Republic and Scalable Capital) as percentages via Parqet. These are real positions, disclosed for transparency — not recommendations. A position in the portfolio means it cleared the author's personal investment criteria at a specific point in time. Markets change; theses evolve. The portfolio should inform your research process, not replace your own judgment.
• Check the glossary for unfamiliar terms: The glossary covers over 50 sector-specific terms — from Baltic Dry Index and TCE Rate to AISC, AFFO, and DCF coverage. These definitions are written specifically for dividend investors in hard-asset sectors, not for general finance audiences.
