Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Cameron and Tony dive into the turbulent world of tariffs, the performance of the QAV US portfolio, and Cameron’s “Pulled Pork” deep dive on Brazilian pulp and paper giant Suzano (SUZ). The discussion ranges from Trump’s tariffs being declared illegal, to the surprising success of companies like Zep (the smartwatch maker), Gray Media, and others. Cameron traces Suzano’s roots back to its immigrant founder, explores its dominance in eucalyptus pulp production, highlights both its financial strengths and ESG controversies, and weighs up risks like Brazil’s economic volatility and cyclical pulp prices. It’s a mix of global politics, investing fundamentals, and a surprising education in “fluff pulp.”
