I doubt being an "Irish" company makes a difference. But it's actually not that difficult to list in HK, esp since most of the prep work is done. Don't know if people still remember the 2022 PBAOC de-listing events. But $PDD and others had already filed paperwork to list in HK, and pulled it when audits were approved. https://t.co/ukMsOByVgh I believe they have paperwork ready to go, and the process takes 3-6 weeks. Fully expect them to list in HK, if / when its officially confirmed. ** Worst case is they trade OTC. Volumes get hit, and would be some short-term pain from forced-sellers. But Luckin ($8BN) mkt cap) is trading near all-time highs + trades $80M / day on the pink sheets, and Didi ($17BN mkt cap) still trades $40M / day. Not bad... What matters in the end is just business execution, and higher earnings.

Going thru Circle's $CRCL S-1. First pass, it seems Coinbase $COIN is best levered to Circle's $CRCL growth. USDC avg circulation grew +9% y/y in 2024, revenues grew +16%, but profits went down -42%. Mainly because payments to $COIN grew +31%. More and more USDC is held on Coinbase's platform, on which they get a "distribution fee" (18% of total supply vs. 8% in 2023, and vs. Circle's 2%). (The Aug 2023 contract renegotiation helped too. Also assumes continued preference holding USDC on Coinbase's platform). https://t.co/yoWLFOJg3X

Just learned many of Mixue's top lieutenants came from Oppo. $2097.HK 🤯 Another "BBK Mafia" company debuts at $10BN+ (alongside $PDD, J&T, Vivo & Oppo, etc). (Those curious can find background on Duan Yongping & BBK in our $PDD memo: https://t.co/pTZ8WlA2FM) https://t.co/AHEjhqu7nG

I'm not finding much of interest in this market. Few notes to myself so that I can look back and see how wrong I was: - Software & semi are expensive, but always are. I'm watching $CDW which posted its first revenue growth in a long time - Not finding much of interest in healthcare. Medtech is ex-growth and expensive. Lot of names under pressure from Trump cost cutting - Valuations for financials have gotten stretched. I'm trimming some big winners here - High-ticket consumer goods are struggling, but travel remains strong. Seeing green shoots in Canadian housing. I'm careful with the Canadian cannabis renaissance - Canadian OFS is topping out and transport is getting killed. Several cheap packaging names, but no growth

$AVO $CVGW 1) Retailers $CMG, etc sourcing elsewhere given MX tariff risk. 2) Avocado price spike during last year’s peak harvest season enabled distributors to realize outsized margins. 1-time benefit has reversed, significant earnings misses ahead for these commodity businesses

$J Beat earnings yesterday. Holding back detailed guidance for Investor Day (2/18)—likely raise ’25 #s, 4-year financial targets w significant upside on margins ($ACM and other peers +15% EBITDA margins). Record backlog and multi-year growth runway.
