Remember during COVID, everyone upgraded their backyards and built pools and Leslie's decided to expand past 1,000 stores like this was all permanent? Well, it wasn't. And now now they're preparing to file for Chapter 11. Its lenders are equitizing and taking control of the business. The pandemic literally pulled forward years of pool spending. $LESL

AI think it is more a question of pricing (LLPA grid) for a $FICO scored loan than predictive power and has been for some time. A FICO loan and a VS loan do not command the same price by mortgage buyers, resulting in absurd amounts of money left on the table for sellers of securitized mortgages, and a much higher mortgage for individual buyers

People really need to stop thinking about 5% yields over 10 years or 30 years. Even the inflation of my $SUBWAY sandwich has gone up like 12% a year. Today it was like $20 after tax, when it used to be like $5… 12 years ago. The best way to keep up with inflation of the things that matter, like Sandwiches, is equities like $SPY.
