Woodley “Woody” Preucil has been instrumental in driving the growth of 13D’s business for over 35 years by being actively involved in the identification, development, and analysis of many of the firm’s core investment themes. Three key areas Woody focuses his research on are: (1) the implications of climate change, including water scarcity, agriculture, and clean energy; (2) global security, including military, homeland security, cybersecurity, and bioterrorism/public health; and (3) disruptive technologies that provide solutions to economic problems and transform industries. Woody guides a team of analysts and leads the firm’s cutting-edge research to focus on several key converging technologies that drive innovation across the global economy (see disruption theme landing page).
Woody is a truth-seeker in all areas of his life. Professionally, he seeks to get past the market noise and find the constant that will reveal itself through the test of time. Woody’s passion and foresight in identifying tectonic thematic shifts has led him to discover game-changing companies that make the world a better place.
Woody has consulted with governments periodically to help improve local and national economies. Woody is a regular speaker on technology-oriented podcasts (link) and at other events.
Early in his tenure at 13D, Woody performed M&A analysis for consulting clients, conducted research in arbitrage trading and special situations, and served as publisher of the firm’s original flagship research publication, The 13D Opportunities Report.
Woody was drawn to 13D for the firm’s unique approach to investments and ability to connect the dots in the big picture to ask the right questions. The company’s ethos of intellectual freedom and deep curiosity for learning has inspired Woody to help clients find investment truth. 13D’s collaboration with high-level influencers brings out the best on both sides to help the firm and its clients reach their full potential.
Woody received a BA in Economics and Accounting from Ohio Wesleyan University in 1983, has been a Chartered Financial Analyst since 1987, and is a member of the New York Society of Security Analysts and the CFA Institute.
Woody is an avid outdoor sports enthusiast, yoga practitioner, and global traveler, spending several months a year at his home in Switzerland. Woody and his wife, Susan, live in Sun Valley Idaho and enjoy spending time with their four adult children.
