I've got a feeling that $30,000/ton is the new floor for tin prices.

Will delete if wrong, u know the drill.

A good chart on historical and future Capex of $MSFT $GOOG $META

I wish they put as a share of Sales too.

$MSFT has become the biggest spender 👇🏼 https://t.co/t66tI7Ahvl

A great post by @JohnHuber72 on the rising capital intensity of the Big Tech and the implications for earnings quality and future returns.

1/ Capex [of Big 4 Tech companies] is now over 3 times depreciation expense.

2/ This spending hasn’t yet hit the income statement, but it will in the next few years as depreciation expenses are set to triple in the coming years as D&A catches up with today’s capex spending.

3/ If the returns on these investments are good, then sales growth will be able to absorb these much higher expenses. But this is not a sure thing.

4/ While the P/E ratios range from 25 to 35, the P/FCF ranges from 40-50.

5/ “I’m not predicting a poor result, but I’m mindful of how difficult it will be given how different the companies are today.”

6/ They used to grow with very little capital invested, but now they have a mountain of capital to deploy, which is obviously much harder at 7 times the size. - Hidden Value Gems

An interesting read about $RACE and its strategy to grow in luxury goods segment. Apparently more challenging than the company might have thought.

“Ferrari has hundreds of millions of fans around the world and we are settling on a 1 per cent slice.”

“Ferrari’s merchandise prices have also increased significantly, with caps that once sold for €8 now priced at €80.”
