01
Clarity between decisions
Business discovery, market confirmation and capital allocation answer different questions. Keeping them distinct makes the reasoning behind ownership easier to understand.

MGQI / Purpose
Why does MGQI exist?
Investing is not a single decision. It is a sequence of decisions made as evidence accumulates.
MGQI exists to bring clarity, discipline and coherence to that sequence—from identifying a business to building a portfolio.
01 / Why a framework is needed
Beyond the question of what to buy
Identifying an attractive business is only the beginning.
An investment process must also decide whether the market supports the deployment of capital, how much capital the opportunity deserves and how that position should evolve as the evidence changes.
Without a clear separation between these decisions, conviction can become imprecise. A strong business, a confirmed opportunity and an appropriately sized position are related—but they are not the same decision.
02 / What MGQI seeks to bring
A more deliberate way to think about ownership
MGQI separates the investment process into distinct questions so that each decision can be examined on its own evidence while remaining part of one coherent system.
02
Discipline as evidence changes
Conviction should strengthen, weaken or remain unchanged in response to evidence—not emotion, narrative or price movement alone.
03
Coherence from idea to portfolio
The same reasoning that brings a business onto the watchlist should continue through entry, position sizing, monitoring and eventual change.
An Evolving Discipline
Conviction should remain accountable to evidence.
A framework should provide structure without pretending that uncertainty can be removed. Evidence develops over time, and conclusions must remain open to review.
The aim is a stronger decision process—not a single signal expected to answer everything.
The Purpose of MGQI
Clearer reasoning from the first question to the final portfolio decision.
MGQI exists to help investors discover better businesses, confirm opportunities with the market, allocate capital deliberately and monitor positions as the evidence evolves.
