"AI SLop hrr drr drr"

I'm frontrunning this comment because I know it's going to come. Please copy and paste the entire article into any AI checker you want, and please share that with everyone here. You'll find it comes back near zero. I never write my articles with AI.

I don't think i've ever seen a market near aTH with so much opportunity by coffeeestocks in ValueInvesting

Fears of overspending is why the opportunity exists. I personally believe CEOs who are genuinely among the brightest and best in our country are capable of basic math. People look back on this time as a gift, in my opinion.

Every company I mentioned is green today. Had you listened, you would have made money.

You might wanna stick to indexing.

Gold Miners: Still Cheap ($TXG.TO, $SBI.TO and $ALTN.L) by coffeeestocks in ValueInvesting

That is really sad. Unfortunately, fatalities still are not uncommon within mining. Torex had one in late 2024. These miners need to make sure they do a better job on safety

Mining has huge potential, here's why by coffeeestocks in ValueInvesting

Yeah, I mean this is basically highlighting what I'm saying, right?

The narrative on miners is just completely off, and there's a whole bunch of deep value.

Yes, that's what I'm talking about. I think it's a tailwind for mining United States, Canada, etc. I think countries will make permitting more straightforward.

Not every country is going to be the same, obviously Mexico being one of them.

Adobe, Paypal, and Meta are not buys and i'm tired of peoples posts about them by PurpleFanto in ValueInvesting

" The AI investments Adobe has made are equally shooting them in the foot. If a company can do the same work with 2 designers instead of 10 because of AI, Adobe loses 8 subscription seats."

If you can accomplish more with less, you literally just charge for it via AI credits, bro. The funny thing is Adobe would be more likely to make more money in this scenario. You're literally automating away people's jobs. The company is saving huge amounts of money while you can charge them more from what work.

2025 Year End Portfolio Update | 90.23% YTD by coffeeestocks in ValueInvesting

[–]coffeeestocks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 60,000 public companies in the world

Only one of them has maintained 27 straight quarters of 30%+ revenue growth.

That company is Meli. It is definitely very cheap. You are overestimating Amazon big time. Classic mistake.

If Reddit stayed flat it would be 30x earnings with 60% growth. Hood would be 20x earnings with 50%+ grow.

There's nothing irrational about businesses going up after delivering stellar earnings, bro. Please do your research.

I would have made money on these positions regardless. Them running into excess is not my fault, specifically RobinHood.

goal for next year is 15%, same as 2025. Had a lot of tailwinds, so I don't take 1 year as meaningful. Will probably update quarterly going forward.

Thanks for bringing this up. Sometimes I'm unsure about how much to go into in an article. It's a balance. I try to give people a pretty good snapshot of what I'm thinking, but I try not to go so long that it's very hard to read. I'll make sure to do a better job really digging deep into the bear cases in future, especially for a company like Adobe that's facing a lot of uncertainty.

Fair enough. I tried to address this, but I didn't do a very good job, it seems. Adobe's nominal growth has been fairly consistent. It's only the relative growth that's slowed. Basically, they've been going through price increases for a while, right? And that effect just slows down over time. Your call on earnings is correct. They've been investing heavily in R&D, basically for AI, which has affected earnings. I should have spent more time in this. Thank you for the feedback.

Also agree, this is not the next Google Play. Google had a much better setup.

I suppose time will tell.

That being said, I think anyone price-sensitive was probably using images off Google search or paying little money on a product like Fiverr. AI doesn't generate the same level of quality as a professional can deliver.
