@taobanker This is reasonable. I guess the counter would be that current business momentum is much stronger than at least $LULU, I haven't looked at Gap or BBW
@finphysnerd @taobanker A sentiment check on X searching $DECK, its universally positive except @CatNyanpital who is the only bearish comments on this name. Doesn't mean it can't work though
@Goldridge_Cap $KWY I only think about per share growth. This assumes they are only issuing a small number of shares each year under their executive comp plan. Not additional shares to do acquisitions.
@Goldridge_Cap $KWY Great questions. If they continue to have quarters like the most recent, they will deserve a 20x multiple. If they reinvest cash flows and can grow at 15-20% per year, a 20x multiple seems reasonable. That is why the next 4-6 quarters will be so valuable to review.
Contrarian view: $MRNA raises equity in next week. Bullish. No equity raise in the next 2-3 weeks? Very bearish.
