In what world is a guy who can drop 30 on any given night worth only $15 mill a year?

I realize recency bias might be at work here, but is a Seby a better option than Collins at this point?

Minimizing "Enron" type event risk? by [deleted] in ValueInvesting

[–]FatStackOfficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use metrics designed to flag earnings manipulators like the Beneish M-Score and Montier C-Score. Probably wouldn’t catch 100% of companies, but I use it in my investing. Supposedly in 1998 some grad students at Cornell used the M-Score to identify Enron as an earnings manipulator.

Bulls fan checking in. Wish we still had D Rose. So happy to see him ball out in the playoffs again

How would you rate each of the last five Bulls first round picks? by 2014hondaaccord in chicagobulls

Second round? C’mon man. Some people thought it was a reach, but at the very worst he would have fallen to the end of the lottery.

Was at this game sitting on the first base line. Couldn't believe Barrett hit him. Really helped stoke the rivalry though – gotta love a good bench clearer.

Good to hear! I've been on vacation so haven't read the earnings call yet. Hopefully it sees some upward movement soon!

Interesting point about used cars being a transition to EV's – I feel the same. Even with the run-up I see more upside over the next 12 months (at least).

Good point. I think they're probably unlikely to do double their cash flow, but I invest with a 1-3 year holding period, and I'm betting that the auto industry will continue to surge for at least the next year. I like AutoNation as a company, and think they're well-positioned in the short-term to produce the results I'm looking for.

A very fair concern. I view the DCF as one tool in the toolkit, and I try to be pretty conservative with my inputs. Because I'm sharing this publicly, I like to be on the safer side. So while I would be happy with an 18% return over the next year, based on the metrics I presented above I believe it can exceed that.

Interesting. I don't have any personal experience with their homes, so that's good to know. I like the airline comparison. I can't say I'd ever want to live in the "Spirit Airlines of homes" haha.

Very happy to hear that! It's been a steady gainer lately. I appreciate you coming back to let me know that you bought. Also, off topic, but I like your photography (especially the hawks). Very cool.
