It was not looking good even in 2024 there was a lot of evidence for structural pressure on web traffic viewership and thus the value of led gen website providers, which primarily provided content and information. Never expected $ROL, a provider of pest control to become an AI loser But with Muse being able to negotiate prices and price transparency issues now becoming much more efficient a lot of business models could shrink pretty significantly that relied on lazy consumers. I remember in NYC i was once had to call pest control and negotiated with maybe 5 providers, the prices were absurd and it was such a waste of time. Deploying a muse agent to do this dirty work would have been so helpful

@TexDoggie I lived in Queretaro for years, loved weekend trips to Guanajuato. Very cool city with all the mines and tunnels and punches way above its weight with stuff to do thanks to the university. That airport has been one of the fastest growing ones for $PAC, love Bajio region.

yes I am a miserable fuck. There are several things I like. I like that hedge funds bought $AMC debt at pennies on the dollar. I like that Apes kept buying $AMC as the stock count 20x - and the money went to hedge funds. I like that Apes have thus lost a lot of money to make hedge fund managers richer. And I will especially enjoy it when $AMC eventually fails. Now you know what makes me happy.

To $FOUR credit, they've already been buying back lots of stock and recently killed the Up-C structure (which are terrible) https://t.co/0kRHGBybWV https://t.co/BBTKz873dC

@brianjrobben I mention this possibility as a reason for why it sold down too. I don't think 8% returns are bad for $MCD, but yea, it's not obviously good here. At the same time i'm a bit torn given i am short many resturants this idea maybe is a bit of an idea to balance my book a bit.

The only industries where obvious capital allocation lingo is useful is leasing / banking / insurance. It's much more nebulous in operating businesses that do real things. $AER ceo saying the cheapest commercial jets are on the NYSE under the ticker AER is easy to understand. As math is pencilling out cost of new orders vs buying back stock. $FOUR competes in the real world. Leasing/banking products are fungible. Much harder biz to forecast. Cap allocation is still important, but a lot harder.
