$AMZN and $CRM remain incredibly undervalued. I maintain a $258 Fair Value on $AMZN 2-4 quarters out. A roughly $340 FV on $CRM, again about 2-4 quarters out. I may be wrong idk, but I think both these businesses are incredibly high quality and have lots of…
$GOOGL has faced some antitrust issues which I believe will be forgotten about by next quarter (24 hour news cycle and what not). I don't view any antitrust suit as a risk factor for any big tech company
$CRM is the last company to report earnings on the 28th. Probably the only earnings I'm actually interested to see out of all my companies.
I missed the boat on $ADYEN. Albeit the valuation is still not horrible for the moat + growth that business is going to generate. I also cannot even purchase the shares off of amsterdam listing because IBKR (my new brokerage) doesn't have international stocks permissions enable for me despite me reaching out a handful of times and requesting it in the app. I can still buy the ADR but after my $EVVTY experience ideally I hold off on that one
The second coming of black monday happened on my birthday (Aug 5). I didn't buy or sell anything but it was very fun to watch nonetheless -- Nothing really came out of it but I was hoping for a bigger dip
CONCLUSION:
All in all, I'm happy with the 7 names I hold. Id like to get $CRM and $AMZN to be <30%"- Quality Investing with Aria

The index's composition helps explain this stability. It includes several heavyweight stocks from defensive sectors (consumer staples, healthcare)

I hate ROCE mostly because of how people use it if anything. It makes sense for mature businesses and thats about it.
It rewards asset light businesses that are wildly profitable. And if a company is in stage 3-4 of the business cycle the ROCE metric will miss them. I think it makes sense to buy your Home Depots or $KO of the world. And compare the two.
But saying $AMZN is an inferior company than $AAPL due to the ROCE being off by a factor of 5. Completely misses the point
Influencers who shall not be named have built this culture of ROCE is the most important metric known to man kind. If its under 20% that’s a disgusting narrow moat business and you should burn it right away. Above 50% ?? Take my money right away!
This couldnt be further from the truth. I can safely argue that $CRM is 10x wider moat business than $DPZ. I suggest you search up the ROCE on each, you’ll be shocked 😂
Now to be honest, i dont hate the metric itself. But I hate how its used and where its used, and most importantly by WHO ITS USED.
I hate the notion that:
- High ROCE = Wide moat
- Low ROCE = Zero moat/narrow moat
- And negative ROCE??? Oh boy 💀
Like that couldnt be further from the truth, in many cases yes that can be indicative of wide/narrow moat. But not always!!! Depends how mature the company is
Thats why i pay minimal attention to it, again, unless its a mature business

Good old September rolled its ugly head out to screw your YTD gains.
It’s by far the worst performing month for $VOO according to @Reuters. Funny that Nov and Dec right after, are the best performing months 🤔
Seasonality is always a buy the dip opportunity in my eyes 📈 https://t.co/W2LyKgBR3S
