Does anyone else find that they're liable to get personally attached to particular investments?
I've noticed that there are certain stocks in my portfolio that I'm illogically attached to. These tend to be companies that are relatively tiny and obscure and I take some level of pride (warranted or not) in "discovering" them. I don't necessarily believe that these companies will beat the market, …
Any opinion on what Terry Smith is doing? I really admire the guy, but this change surprised me quite a lot
So the new Fundsmith half-year letter dropped and honestly it caught me off guard. The fund's down 2.9% while MSCI World is up 11.2% — a 14-point gap in six months — and instead of the usual "sit tight, we're long-term," Smith actually went and changed the way he manages …
If we're in a bubble, why are ORCL, Meta and MSFT getting punished?
On one side, it looks like we're in an **expensive market**. Just look at the **Shiller PE** and the **regular PE** relative to their historical averages. You can also see we're near the top of the credit cycle, with **credit spreads about as tight as they've been**. People look really …
Oracle capex
Oracle has been interesting business recently. They are spending $56bn on capital to build datacenters. They are trying to be a hyperscaler but they don't have luxury of cash flows like other hyperscalers to bear this huge capex, so they are spending it with taking huge debt and more capex …
Posting portfolios
Hi I was thinking of posting my portfolio but I was wondering if ppl could maybe help me with it. However I'm thinking some ppl could use this data in a harmfull manner. Let me know if I should post it or not.
Xerox - value trap or not?
Xerox is at a crossroads, and the results at the end of July will show which direction it will take.The current value of equity is under 400 million USD, even though sales exceed 7 billion USD. The problem is the huge debt, currently exceeding seven times Ebitda, which the company …
I’m a value investor, and bottom‑up research is how I find opportunities in any market. This is the shortlist of companies that stood out in my initial screening. Next step: digging into the fundamentals to see which ones actually deserve long‑term attention.

Is CRM a value trap, or a buy
Everyone keeps asking why **Salesforce keeps dropping**. Almost nobody asks **why it was so high to begin with**. On paper it looks cheap: strong revenue growth, a PE below its historical average, the classic "**great company at a good price**." But that's exactly what a value trap looks like. **Salesforce …
Adobe is down 40% from its highs while generating $8.25B in true annual FCF with 10% topline growth. I think it died of a theory, not an actual threat. Here's the data including deferred revenue, government contract data from USASpending.gov, and a bear case.
I own ADBE at about 14% of my portfolio, so I have skin in the game and a reason to be honest about where the bear case has merit. The Confederate government supposedly died of a theory. Jefferson Davis was so committed to states' rights he couldn't build the centralized …
Hey! I'm turning 18 and I want feedback if this is a good idea.
The AI industry is booming fast in Wall Street and as such, I want a piece of cake too. I am looking into Nvida as my first but admittedly I am somewhat nervous considering it went down May and only recently actually got back up. Any recommendations for better investments?
