$SRAD is explicitly mentioned in $META Muse source code & technical documentation - although functionality does not appear to have been turned on yet I believe Meta will expand their relationship with Sportradar https://t.co/OS10T9268i https://t.co/MzTsyf3WV0

@310Value reminder that $APG pfd A stock, by which the holders get paid hedge fund-like incentive comp based on year end share price, will be converted at year end. Management/board are well incentivized to do everything they can to juice the stock price into year end.

I feel like traditional "value investing" went into hibernation. Before it was finding a 10x -12x P/E company like $UPWK or $PYPL, Dominoes, Pepsi. Or even a cheap Japanese company below book value. Then just enjoying slow growth but buyback/dividend appreciation from their cashflow. Now you can find 1.8x runrate P/E company like $ESMT that grew revenue 605.24% Y/Y. And the main thing you need to argue about is duration. Or a 16.2x trailing P/E Sumitomo, despite having way too many hyperscaler LTAs in AI from fiber to lasers. AI created much bigger medium-term anomaly, where "value investing" went towards high growth, "deep value" companies.

Here is my slide on $GME four wall economics. $1.9 million of sales per store. $580k of EBITDA at a 30% margin. Corporate SG&A only $64k per store as Ryan Cohen has slashed costs and is running this like a startup. These unit economics are stunning. This is why they are beginning to reopen stores again after shutting down 5,000. The payback is less than a year. Wait until the drooling suits figure this out. Management is buying in size, this is one of the reasons. More info: https://t.co/Re7vRQ6uHG

@EmmaStockNotes Purely eye candy: the biggest compounder is Altria $MO at 442,100,000%. Strip Altria out of the average and it drops to about 15,000%, roughly cut in half.

@aurelius28 What do you think they needs to change? I honestly don't think much has changed (apart from valuation) in the case of $FIS and $JKHY (which is too expensive). $FISV seems to have real issues. But despite all the complaints, industry seems to be fine, stickiness high as hell.

While everyone was pounding the table about Ryan Cohen buying $26 million of $GME stock yesterday, we had another director, Alain Attal, buy 17,500 shares in the open market. $400k purchased by a director is a massive buy. See more details on the entire thesis here: https://t.co/W8q9tPCX8Y
