To get max $$ from C Band FCC needs more low band. This is bc low band carries the control signal that tells a phone how to actually operate (when to burst packets & switch towers etc). C Band w/o low band support just isnt as valuable. This is part of why the FCC supports $NN. https://t.co/tIgJPCHheP

I cannot justify that either, what I can is on Owners Earnings and Enterprise Value to Owners Earnings. $BMBL can start and supplement the word of mouth fly wheel inorganically through paid advertising, which is what they have done historically and are ramping up in the next few Qs

One of my favorite sellside phenomena: stock gaps 20% on an idiosyncratic event, analysts spend the rest of the day getting screamed at by clients, then come in the next morning and backsolve a downgrade and new PT to the price the stock already traded to. Sometimes that second wave of selling gives you an even better entry… $ALKT

Hey Drew I know you cover mainly big names which makes sense in terms of reach. I watch your videos even when I know I’m not going to buy the stock because the quality is that good. I think in terms of bigger names with potential value $SLM is very interesting and would be a good set up for you. $KNSL is another that also has a pretty good retail following. $FISV is the biggest size potential value I’ve found. Also a $FICO update with thoughts would be orgasmic

To me that is not true and one of the common misconceptions on $BMBL, like someone insightfully mentioned word of mouth is a powerful thing. Especially in today’s day and age. Here is a real world scuttle butt example: I was talking to a girl about here boyfriend and how they met and how she meets guys. She said hinge, instagram tinder. She said hinge for dating, tinder for hook ups. If she mentions Bumble for dating that is a huge endorsement and whoever hears it is virtually certain to try Bumbls. If $BMBL is continuously successful at providing quality matches (Whitney’s goal) it will gain new users->leading to potentially more subscribers->leading to potentially more lost subscribers due to success->who will spread the word and create more inflowing subscribers than out flowing. Word of mouth may be the most powerful advertising force
