Mercedes-Benz: Can Benz Reinvent the Car Again?

Comfort Systems: Blue-Collar Compounder

April 27, 2025 | What is a “serial acquirer,” you ask? Good question. This term has come to describe decentralized holding companies, where there’s a parent company at the top that oversees a number of subsidiary businesses.

Uber: Cash Burner to Compounder?

April 20, 2025 | I was actually one such investor who, when researching Alphabet previously, suggested Waymo could and should eventually cut Uber out instead of partnering with them. After having studied Uber, I now see it differently. Let’s discuss.

Nike: Just Buy It?

April 13, 2025 | Nike is one of those rare businesses that doesn't just sell products — it shapes culture, identity, and aspiration. But despite that iconic status, the company is facing one of the most challenging stretches in its modern history.

Reddit: The Front Page of the Internet

April 6, 2025 | It’s a special thing to redefine what it means to be part of a “community.” Yet, that’s exactly what Reddit, known colloquially as “the Front Page of the Internet,” has done. The future is promising, but is the stock too richly priced? Let’s find out!

March 23, 2025 | They say to never try and catch a falling knife when investing. That’s probably good advice. But when you see a company with as much nostalgia and brand recognition as Hershey’s get cut in half over the last two years, it’s at least worth a second look.

Nintendo: Switching It Up!

March 16, 2025 | Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Super Smash Brothers, Kirby, Pokemon — the list of Nintendo’s iconic franchises is remarkable, rivaled only by Disney’s portfolio of beloved brands.

Copart: The 100-Bagger Junkyard

October 19, 2025 | Do you know the narrative that boring companies make the best investments? Copart is one of the best examples of that. Actually, it’s almost a 400-bagger since its IPO.

FICO: The Algo Behind America’s Credit

October 12, 2025 | This is the story behind that three-digit number that can determine which credit cards you’re approved for and the interest rate on your mortgage, as well as the wide-moated ‘tollbooth’ business that charges a tiny fee each time your credit rating is passed on.

Manchester United: Valuing a Football Empire

October 5, 2025 | If you’re as much of a football fan as I am, I know you’ll enjoy this newsletter. If you think football is called “soccer” and have never watched a Manchester United game, well, you might still be interested in my comparison of European and U.S. football, as well as why NFL teams tend to dominate the Forbes list in terms of valuation.
