$META I’ll just leave this here.

From the 11th of March

$META chart attached from October 27th 2022 when we caught the bottom at $87.

Now can we catch the Top at $523? https://t.co/W2ln5j954K

RT @YellowLabLife: The time has come…

The koala is bittersweet about this but it was inevitable…

Tomorrow I'm releasing my write-up on one of my favorite mining stocks.

It's a PGM miner with the following characteristics:

• Lowest-quartile AISCs
• Half its market cap in cash w/ no debt
• Buying back stock
• Dividend paying
• Insiders own shares

My other deep dives 👇

People focus on street estimates which are usually nonsense

$METAs revenue was down $4billion from their Q4 result.

‘But it came in above estimates?’

A 10% decline should be the headline

Zuck knows if there was ever a time to mention that the AI infra build is a multi-year affair, it's after this epic run.

The most important quote from the c/c so far is about how when they decide to scale a product, they almost always front load the Capex and backload the profits.

It's cliché , but short term pains for long term gains.

This is not for the squiggly line minute chart fanatics lol

$META

My 2 cent on the post earning move (other than it was already up 450% from the October 2022 bottom without any meaningful pullback).

Shareholders have PTSD from Zuck overspending on the Metaverse ambitions in 2021-2022 and running a huge loss with Reality Labs with no achievable timeframe for ROI.

In essence , he was investing for the future but with little to no short or medium term ROI and the long term was also very questionable. The vision wasn’t clear. This caused a serious and justifiable short term repricing of the stock in 2022. Markets being markets they overshot to the downside given at one point a 8x Operating Income multiple.

Fast forward to todays earnings. Numbers for the quarter were fine. The issue comes mainly imho from shareholders listening to Zuck talk about another « investment cycle » with no short term ROI in sight. But I think where the market might’ve gotten it wrong today was that this AI infrastructure spent will have a much shorter timeframe and much more quantifiable return for the business. Meta AI has already been integrated and as Zuck mentioned AI is being used to target ads almost to the tune of 50% of feeds. Let’s not forget ads are 95%+ of revenues and any meaningful upgrade through AI for ads can have a significant impact to the bottom line.

My guess is this investment cycle will be somewhat long perhaps 3-5yrs but the ROI will be a lot more quantifiable , justifiable and crucial to the next leg of the life cycle for the company. This does not feel like the Metaverse 2.0.

Great thread on starting a fund

A year ago I left my job at a hedge fund in NY to start my own fund, Bristlemoon Capital. Some thoughts below on the journey of launching a fund (both the good and bad):

Also on the subject of starting a fund. Excellent thread.

Last of the Wall St bonus clearing this week or next depending on your tax choices. Thinking about starting your own fund?

Some unsolicited free advice worth a, well, hopefully of some well meaning help.

Some basic rules:

Idaho Strategic $IDR has been proving you wrong for years @hendry_hugh.

You should check them out.

I wrote a long time ago that gold miners were a complete waste of time

All huff with no puff

All risk and no return

That if you're bullish on gold, just own more gold to amplify your returns

The only rational for the miners today is their catastrophic price performance

Gold has quadrupled and they're flat

F-L-A-T

Someone with a bloomy terminal, do me the relative value chart of long one unit of gold versus one unit of GDX, the gold mining index over last 20 years. Has been one of the least discussed and best trades of all time.

HSI went above its 200 DAY MA for the first time since July ‘23 today.

HSI continues to behave bullish while the $SPY moves into correction territory.

Right now they are in perfect opposite step.
