RT @neilksethi: BoA (Hartnett): "DeepSeek, DOGE, Trump geopolitics big drivers in Q1, but US tariffs set to jump from 2% to 8% of imports (Chart 3); we expect Trump underplays not overplays April 2nd to avoid 2nd wave US inflation; [NFP on] April 4th more important to set April directionโ€ฆsoft landing 100-200k payroll = no recession = recent SPX 5.5k low holds (US retail/homebuilding stocks bounce); hard landing <100k payroll = spx to new lows in april, taking global stocks, banks, credit down (kick-starts big trump pivot to tax cuts)."

"most faq is 'what stops doge & tariff shock therapy?' (a: inflation jump in bond yields, lower trump approval, gop house losses, jump in unemployment in pa, wi, mi)"

M&A and IPOs are Back ๐Ÿ”ฅ

On E221, @Jason and @GavinSBaker discussed the current state of dealmaking with a pro-M&A administration taking over.

@Jason:

"I mean, M&A with Wiz and now CoreWeave going public, the Wrath of Lina Khan is over."

"We gotta give the administration a lot of credit for maybe removing the roadblocks to M&A and IPOs, or at least people perceive that."

"So I don't know if perception becomes reality here, but it does seem like M&A is a bit on fire."

@GavinSBaker:

"CoreWeave bought Weights & Biases, which I think is a really interesting acquisition for them that kind of further differentiates them and maybe de-commodifies them a little bit."

"There have been quite a few acquisitions by big companies of smaller companies in the last month, and I think because none of the companies that have been bought have been public maybe it's flying a little under the radar, but it's happening in an accelerating way."

"And I think this would be very good for the market, and animal spirits, and everything that we care about."

This is absolutely insane:

From Wednesday to Friday, the S&P 500 lost -$100 billion PER trading hour for a total of -$2 TRILLION.

Then, after the market closed on Friday, S&P 500 futures erased ANOTHER -$120 billion in minutes.

What happened? Let us explain.

***NOW TO VALUATION ๐Ÿง 

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~7% MORE in EPS

Using Benjamin Grahamโ€™s 2G rule of thumb, $MELI has to grow earnings at a 22.33% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation

Today, analysts anticipate 2025 - 2027 EPS growth over the next few years to be more than the (22.33%) required growth rate:

2025E: $46.91 (24.5% YoY)
2026E: $64.98 (38.5% YoY)
2027E: $84.98 (30.8% YoY)

$MELI has an ok track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, but letโ€™s assume $MELI ends 2027 with $84.98 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

40x P/E: $3400๐Ÿ’ต โ€ฆ ~17.6% CAGR

38x P/E: $3230๐Ÿ’ต โ€ฆ ~15.4% CAGR

36x P/E: $3060๐Ÿ’ต โ€ฆ ~13.2% CAGR

34x P/E: $2890๐Ÿ’ต โ€ฆ ~10.9% CAGR

As you can see, $MELI appears to have attractive return potential IF we assume >36x earnings (a multiple justified by its growth rate & moat)

$MELI boasts an expansive growth trajectory, fueled by powerful network effects that should drive sustained momentum

Key factors contributing to its promising outlook include ๐Ÿ”‘

1. Margin expansion

2. Unparalleled access to Latin America's burgeoning economy

3. Network effects that produce self-reinforcing dynamics ensuring long-term competitiveness, among other things

Those buying $MELI today at $2165๐Ÿ’ต are buying it for a fair price, with little margin of safety โ€” however, these growth rates have to be revised down substantially for $MELI to miss the mark, even if the company grows earnings at 25% CAGR over the next 5 years, shareholders will likely end up with a decent return

I consider $MELI a strong buy closer to $1945๐Ÿ’ต (~10% below todayโ€™s price) where I can reasonably expect ~12% CAGR while assuming a conservative 32x end multiple, ensuring some margin of safety
