About Ridire Research: What It Is and Why Subscribe

Ridire Research is an independent research publication focused primarily on long/short and thematic opportunities. We publish educational market analysis, conceptual frameworks, and illustrative, article-level research ideas designed to help readers think more clearly about narrative, valuation, and risk across global markets. The goal is to make institutional-quality analytical frameworks accessible, transparent, and publicly accountable.


What We Publish

Ridire Research delivers actionable-style insights grounded in fundamental rigor and quantitative structure. We highlight mispriced narratives, regime shifts, and thematic dislocations across asset classes.

Our readership includes professionals from firms such as JPMorgan, Baillie Gifford, Maybank, and Hedgeye, as well as researchers and students affiliated with institutions including NYU, NTU, Vanderbilt, and IIM Indore. We blend traditional research discipline with a modern, open, and public-facing philosophy.


Our Research Funnel

Ideas originate from The Funnel, an internal thematic engine that scans for structural narratives and market dislocations across domains such as:

  • Behavioral and factor extremes

  • Agentic AI and software ecosystems

  • Reshoring and industrial power cycles

  • Energy security and grid reliability

  • Defense modernization

  • Market microstructure, liquidity, and volatility regimes

From these narratives, ideas are filtered using a disciplined, repeatable framework:

  • Quality & Moats — Structural advantages and durability

  • Catalysts & Inflections — Asymmetric setups around change

  • Valuation Gaps — Mispricings with identifiable margin of safety

  • Macro Context — Liquidity, volatility, and flow dynamics shaping outcomes


Our Philosophy

At Ridire Research, we do not predict markets. We develop testable theses. Each article represents a hypothesis supported by data and tracked publicly. The emphasis is on intellectual accountability.


From Index-Style Constructs to Per-Article Tracking

Historically, some ideas were expressed through a simplified, illustrative research construct to show how theses evolved over time. Going forward, that aggregation has been retired.

Accountability is now handled entirely at the article level, with each idea standing on its own, anchored to the date it was published. This avoids aggregation distortion and reflects how readers actually engage with research: one idea at a time. Each article represents a discrete hypothesis, evaluated on its own merits.


Per-Article Accountability

Each published idea is accompanied by:

  • A core thesis and key catalysts

  • Principal risks and failure modes

  • Relevant macro, sector, or structural context

  • Ongoing public commentary as the thesis evolves

To support transparency, Ridire Research maintains a simple per-article tracking view showing hypothetical, point-in-time outcomes from the date of publication.

This tracking:

  • Does not use weights or aggregation

  • Does not assume interim rebalancing, trimming, or exits

  • Does not represent an investable strategy or managed portfolio

Each article is tracked independently. There is no rolling construct, cumulative performance, or implied continuity across ideas.


Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the publication currently free?

Ridire Research is in an audience-building and distribution phase. Premium offerings may be introduced in the future, but the core mission is to keep high-quality research broadly accessible.

Who is Ridire Research for?

  • Professional investors

  • Quants and analysts

  • Founders and operators

  • Students and academics

  • Readers seeking differentiated frameworks and sharper decision-making tools

How is accountability shown now?

Accountability is expressed per article, not through an aggregate construct.

Each idea is tracked from its publication date on a hypothetical, point-to-point basis, with no weighting, aggregation, or active management assumptions. The purpose is clarity and transparency, not to replicate an investable strategy or produce a track record.
