About Me and My Blog

My name is Christopher Montaño, CFA and I have a background in equity research, venture capital and technology start-up operations. My research interests span multiple technologies, sectors and services. The truth is that I am fascinated with the economic impact of technology on who we are and how we live. Currently, I am working in the clean technology sector and am spending most of my time looking at cross-sectional technologies and systems to address energy needs from both the supply and demand side. As a disclaimer, the opinions and content of this blog solely reflect my personal views.

I have current interests in the SmartGrid throughout its value chain as well as in various clean technology products and systems- particularly the application of communications and information technology in the energy industry.

I have a passion for early stage investing in both public and private companies.  This is based upon my conviction that properly used, investment capital unleashes the dynamic, creative capacity of the human spirit and thereby reshapes how we live. I am a huge fan of all things finance and particularly enjoy analyzing private or small cap technology companies ( the more diverse the technology the better!) I especially enjoy fundamental market research in emerging technologies to see how new markets emerge or fail to emerge.

My blog’s name is “Adventures of the Invisible Hand.” It is a simple dialog on my personal thoughts and reflections regarding the investment and economic climate as we have stepped into uncharted territories in this still young 21st century.
