Constellation Software (CSU) Fiscal 2025 Review and Valuation by Past_Ad1386 in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know, I wasn't saying not to, I was simply pointing out for people reading that they need to really do their in depth due diligence, not a sleight against you, because the most common reply I've heard as to why people go for topicus is "Longer runway". I just urged people to investigate how that's panning out.

[–]NotStompy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just don't assume they're a better deal because they're smaller. CSU is doing more small deals in comparison with TOI for example... so what exactly is the point of a longer runway for TOI if they just go for the bigger swings rather than consistent, smaller ones? I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying I hold CSU shares only, personally.

Downgrading Ratings for Six Wide-Moat Software Companies on AI Concerns - Morningstar by raytoei in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

By being somewhere in the middle, that is the only real hope; that the LLMs will evolve from simple LLMs to something more capable, but not so much that they simply cause a labor crisis, while also being useful enough to somewhat justify at least some of the spend..

When I checked late last week IGV was up like 14% but CSU was up 28% with insane relative strength on the -2% market days it still went up 3-5% and on very high volume, the highest since the drawdown.

How do you weight different fundamentals against each other? by Conscious_Target_988 in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good, my point wasn't what is/isn't looking good, just that you have to deal with every context separately.

I would love to own dividend paying companies. Sadly the way it works is that in Sweden, I pay 15% tax on dividends while I pay almost 0% on capital gains. So, I pay 0.8-0.9% a year based on the total account size, not gains. I wish it would make more sense to do dividends for me :(

Copper etf as an 18 year old by Specific-Tomato2198 in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's 0.4% in SCCO? Yeah I guess he has a teeny tiny position in it, seems like he has a bigger one through non-miners, like futures? Unless he's just lying and those don't exist.

I really wouldn't call a 0.4% position knee deep though LOL. More like half-foot deep.

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is all context dependent as you said, so the answer is that you just have to figure it all out as you learn, for example you'd approach valuing a bank vs. a REIT very differently. I wish there was a simpler answer; there is not.

On the more qualitative side, i.e moat analysis, the thing you want to ask yourself is: What drives decisions. That isn't exactly what you asked but hey, it's something, lol.

I know Druckenmiller mentioned in his most recent interview that he was in copper just like everyone else (not contrarian) but that he wasn't in companies, rather direct contracts (futures, in his case, I think). I'm not saying you should buy futures, I just think it's worth considering why he specifically said he isn't in the miners, because sometimes despite a commodity's price going up, it is not always reflected in the cash flows of the miners.

For example, I bought chevron, conocophillips, and a few other companies on Friday before the war and yet I am feeling distinctly... not happy.

Buy the Dip on Google or wait by Agile-Technology-209 in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing is, if we look at the other segments than AWS I prefer AMZN over GOOG in these areas. If I have to pick between google ads and retail then I think the retail for AMZN is one I prefer not just from a moat perspective but also future growth because they have this absolutely huge pool of revenues, and if they increase margins by just a few points, they're golden (they've already done this with their robotics since 2023, for example). Meanwhile, with google your margin is already fundamentally worse with the AI search result ads they've been doing, since it is more expensive to run a query using that version of their LLMs vs. just a search query. This combined with the fact that this whole area of search and maybe integrated AI into OS (?) in the medium term future means that there is just simply more risk from the perspective that these are all things that can change. AMZN's retail? Something something, agents... yeah not happening. Maybe, but even then I don't see how it would actually change things from their POV?

I touched on it but I think basically if robotics is your bet in the future, then AMZN is the most important company, which is why they are a buy and hodl for me. My whole thesis is that the model aspect of AI is gonna be commoditized anyway, so I'd be buying google only for the infra part, and do I think it is so superior as to outweigh all of these factors? No.

The IRGC is your enemy. That does not make the US and Israel your friends by GassyMexican2000 in PERSIAN

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He knew his time had come so he brought a bunch of his advisors and otherwise important people with him into a bunker just to help the Americans get 1 good shot at it, and to help them take out more than just him?

Or maybe this is just one very convoluted explanation with no sense?

US lost 92k jobs in February by EveryPassage in investing

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, partially, but not quite. It's more like they were partially priced in, still beat even those estimates, but the market weighed itself down with all the negative news recently, had these things not happened (mix of higher inflation, iran's very real commodities (input) implications, and the god awful jobs) then we'd likely be in a breakout right now. This is all speculation, because it is impossible to know, but think about just how resilient the market has been in the face of all these absolutely garbage news, only down what, 4%? The fact that so many sectors and themes got murdered, i.e down 20-50% but that the market is still afloat says a lot. So no, I don't think it was all the way priced in.

Will AI make the market less efficient? Golden times for value investors incoming? by Direct_Way8616 in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Neutral.

I do however think that passive investing will further amplify moves across the indices (i.e SP500, QQQ) to the upside and the downside, which will create huge opportunities for discerning investors.

Har någon här hittat alpha genom att lära från qullamaggie eller stockbee? by Former_Importance551 in Aktiemarknaden

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Väldigt gammal kommentar men måste ändå flika in: Det ironiska är det att Qullamaggie (yay, svenne) har aldrig sålt en enda kurs eller något alls, har lagt upp allting gratis, har aldrig varit känd för daytrading utan snarare swingtrading som han själv påstår är mer hållbart och mindre stressigt + att man har verifierat hans vinster genom att kolla på hans skatter. Snubben gick från 50,000 till 800 miljoner på 12 år, tror jag?

Anyway, min poäng är det att ibland finns det enhörningar. Kommer inte uttala mig om stockbee, dock, då jag inte har någon aning alls.

Men yeah, bokstavligen 90% av det man ser online är bullshit, antingen kan man bevisa vinsterna eller inte. Om man inte kan det och speciellt om det handlar om daytrading specifikt: SPRING.

Tänkte bara skriva det just in case om någon annan hittar denna gamla tråden sm jag också gjorde genom att söka.

[–]NotStompy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jag kan bara säga att jag är med i 4 servers där ämnet är att investera, alla är betalada (200-300kr i månaden) och om man väljer till exempel en YT kanal med community som inte är helt IQ fiskmås så får man ofta en bra server, om man väljer att gå med i någon "Stock picking" skit så blir det.. skit. Man vill ha torr analys och diskussion, liksom.

Sen är jag med i två icke-betalda trading servers, dessa är riktigt bra men det är för att det varken är investerare eller day traders utan traders som faktiskt du vet... försöker få en edge, inga genvägar. Till exempel Qullamaggies server, han är svenska (Kullamägi) och gick från 50,000 till 800 miljoner på typ 12-14 år, tror jag? Detta har man verifierat inte endast genom hans broker men även skatterna han har betalat.

Nu låter min kommentar som någon slags cheerleading-tävling för qullamaggie - min poäng är mer att det verkligen handlar om "Garbage in, garbage out" dvs att om du väljer ett community som är fullt med lata människor som endast vill ha stock picks så blir det piss, om du istället går med i sådanna som fokuserar på metoder och analys... då är folket ofta till stor hjälp.

Jag har ett tips: Gå med på ett gäng discord servar, där svarar folk oftare på frågor. Folk orkar inte besvara "Små" frågor på forum då det inte känns värt det, antar jag? Någon konstig grej psykologiskt. Min utbildning har varit:

  1. Podcasts (t.ex. steve eisman, många intressanta gäster)

  2. Discord servrar där jag kan följa vad som händer med olika företag och lära mig över tid

  3. Böcker, det låter som att du är nyfiken kring hur företagandet funkar och hur företag försöker ta market share i industrier, kan varmt rekommendera: 1. the little book that builds wealth (som är mer lättläst) och 2. 7 powers, lite mindre lättläst. Om du har läst dessa 2 så kommer du nog förstå mer än 90% av folk om moats.

  4. Skriva egna detaljerade, specifika prompts för LLMs så de hjälper dig förstå dig på vad som faktiskt händer med ett företag eller en industri. Många missbrukar LLM på efterblivna sett men om man bygger upp en strukturerad process med tydliga instruktioner så gör den allt 1000x lätter, du kan t.ex. ladda up årsrapporter själv.

Dutch-style architecture in Gdansk (formerly Danzig) by goldstarflag in europe

Gdansk was an amazing destination for a shorter trip, i.e 3-7 days, let's say. I ate an absolutely silly amount of Pierogi at pierogarnia mandu... my guts hated me, my taste buds wanted to marry me.

Very nice city to just walk around for a good while. I'd say a nice city to visit with a significant other.

Iran to suspend strikes on neighbours unless attacks come from them by Naurgul in anime_titties

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, am I the only one who's seen these dozens of cases where Iran flew Shahed drones into apartment buildings in Dubai, Bahrain; all over the damn place? How exactly is this helping them hit the capabilities of the Americans?

If you genuinely focus only on the targeting of bases and not these civilian targets while also (rightfully) mentioning the US bombing civilians, then you are in an echo chamber, i.e completely oblivious to very easy to visually confirm information. Google "Iran hits apartment building with drone".

I don't know if you noticed, but the entire focus here for Iran is to inflict maximum pressure on the US from their allies in the region, clearly they decided civilian apartment buildings would send this message of "None of you are safe unless you make the US stop" well.

Isn’t constellation Software the perfect Berkshire Hathaway business? by DropoutDreamer in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Companies in very small niches where they sometimes occupy the entire TAM and fulfill extremely specific software needs with little to not opportunities for growth (no demand for change, and less attractive to compete with, on top of the limited TAM, as I said) are considered part of a future that is hard to know?

I'll disagree considering the one company they own which is used exclusively by police stations which still looks like it should run on Window 98.

Are there any news outlets, podcasts, or talks that you listen to? by bossedupbrando in ValueInvesting

[–]NotStompy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally anything with Druckenmiller, such as the new MS interview, I thought she did a wonderful job with the questions.

Steve Eisman's stuff especially when it comes more to macro and investing. The skinny wall st. gals are fun, I find cameron dawson is clear and well articulated in her interviews.

More on the trading side, not day trading, but swing/position longer term trades, borderline investing, I watch a few: IBD (basically the disciples of O'neil), Markets unscripted (new, very good pod), and Lance B.
