Rafael Nadal has always played every match like it's his last.

But now, he's celebrating every victory like it's his last.

That is how you know he knows.

Grateful we get to watch him for as long as we still can.

Imagine what would happen to copper prices if the supply deficit expanded to 30% by the end of the decade.

All the easy copper has been mined.

What's left is more expensive, with greater regulatory burdens, and without enough labor to mine it.

Higher prices are inevitable. https://t.co/TMeSyezJNS

Finally, L'Occitane gets an offer from the Chairman at HKD 34 per share.

The Chairman needs 90% approval from disinterested parties. So far, they've only locked up 38%.

Will we see a deal bump to get this through?

L'Occitane International S.A. $973.HK is a leading global beauty and personal care (BPC) player at ~10x FY25 earnings, growing at a mid-teens plus rate over the next few years.

RT @DimitryNakhla: 3 months ago I shared my analysis on $RMD suggesting it was undervalued & a good consideration at $174๐Ÿ’ต

Since that post, $RMD is now trading ~25% higher

As I stated in my analysis:

โ€œAs you can see, weโ€™d have to assume at least 25x earnings for $RMD to have attractive CAGR potential

This is well below $RMD 10-Year average multiple of 28.96x

Yet, I believe the 10-Year multiple is elevated and we shouldnโ€™t rely on it

Given its quality & historical growth rates, I believe itโ€™s reasonable for $RMD to trade somewhere in between 25x - 27x, making it a fair purchase today at $174๐Ÿ’ตโ€

Not every business that could be undervalued will react this way shortly after its share price trades at an attractive range

And if youโ€™re a long-term investor โ€” what happens over the course of 3 weeks, 3 months, or even 3 years shouldnโ€™t really matter ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Looking back at these short-term increases, HOWEVER, reinforces & strengthens the conviction an investor can have when relying on fundamental analysis ๐Ÿ’ฏ

***NOW TO VALUATION ๐Ÿง 

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~23% MORE in EPS & ~24% MORE in FCF per share

Using Benjamin Grahamโ€™s 2G rule of thumb, $RMD has to grow earnings at a! 11.79% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation

Today, analysts anticipate 2024 - 2026 EPS growth over the next few years to be slightly less than the (11.79%) required growth rate:

2024E: $7.21 (12.0% YoY) *FY Jun
2025E: $7.94 (10.1% YoY)
2026E: $8.70 (9.7% YoY)

$RMD has a solid track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so letโ€™s assume $RMD ends 2026 with $8.70 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

27x P/E: $234.90๐Ÿ’ต [...]
