The Global Contrarian
You buy where it hurts to look. The worse the headlines, the more interested you get, and you are willing to go anywhere in the world to find the cheapest pessimism.
Keep a list of assets that are hated right now. Check it quarterly and only buy when you can state why the hatred is overdone.
Buy at the point of maximum pessimism, and diversify globally so no single country's despair can ruin you.
