About us
OsloMet Capital Group is a student-run investment organization at OsloMet Business School. We prepare members for careers in equity research, asset management, investment banking, and private equity through hands-on practice, not theory alone.
We teach members to critically analyze companies and make objective investment decisions grounded in fundamentals. Our community is built on growth, curiosity, and ambition.
Investment philosophy
Know what you own
Rooted in Peter Lynch's first principle. We invest only in what we can explain simply and defend with rigour. Fast growers are our primary focus, while asset plays and cyclicals protect the downside.
Macro momentum
We adapt to macroeconomic events by mapping bottlenecks and pressure points. When geopolitical or economic shifts occur, we identify which sectors get disrupted, which benefit, and which individual stocks sit at that intersection.
Protect the downside
Fast growers drive our returns. Cyclicals and asset plays anchor the portfolio during volatility. The Lynch category framework determines sizing, risk control, and the patience each position demands.
OM Alpha Fund
Global equities
OM Alpha Fund is a high-conviction global equity fund with one objective: outperform the MSCI World Index. We invest across the world's most dynamic markets, from the United States and China to Japan and South Korea, with technology and AI infrastructure at the core.
Our edge is identifying bottlenecks before the market does. Constrained capital, compute shortages and disrupted supply chains are not risks we hedge. They are where we look for our best ideas. Sector rotation and geopolitical shifts are part of the process, not noise to be filtered out. As Peter Lynch put it: "Know what you own, and know why you own it." That principle sits behind every position we take.

OM Capital Fund
The OM Capital Fund competed in the Euronext Trading Game with a simulated €200,000 portfolio. Stock selection combines a Lynch-inspired fundamental framework with momentum signals, identifying businesses with strong underlying economics where price momentum confirms the thesis.
The fund beat S&P 500 by +15.3 percentage points over the competition period, in a window marked by geopolitical turbulence, an escalating Iran conflict, and surging oil prices across global markets. Returns were primarily driven by our positions in technology and energy companies, while a deliberate focus on portfolio robustness helped us navigate the volatility without the drawdowns that hit broader indices.
Performance vs benchmarks
The OM Capital Fund competed in the Euronext Trading Game, a pan-European student investment competition, over a 6-month period from October 2025 to April 2026. Each team manages a simulated €200,000 portfolio using real market prices.
Returns were primarily driven by our positions in technology and energy companies, while a deliberate focus on portfolio robustness helped us navigate the volatility without the drawdowns that hit broader indices.
