This isn’t concentrated enough.
I need 5, but what on earth do I cut?
$TMDX, for obvious reasons no one seems interested in though. https://t.co/I0Pxfbkul2
$ETH & $MSTR, crypto is going higher and the mispricing is real.
https://t.co/93kyTdmP9Q
https://t.co/YCGB90Tmj3

RT @WealthyReadings: $META & co's compute will go to $NBIS & co.
Hyperscalers won’t carry all the overbuild risk. They’ve already started pushing it downstream; that’s the new normal.
Expect more deals, many more.
How the market prices risk is the real question, but short term, my two cents are long. Very long. Because the market is yet to realize that demand justifies spending.
For now.

Important to contemplate why something is cheap & if it deserves to be.

Brad finding the words...
This goes (to my opinion, not his) for $ADBE, $PYPL, $NVO, $DUOL and so many other names which yet yield so much engagement around here.
Cheap stocks are probably the #1 source of underperformance.

RT @godofprompt: On one hand, prompt engineering won’t matter.
Future AI will just… get it.
On the other hand, context windows are about to hit millions of tokens.
One well-structured prompt might be the difference between “good answer” and “scientific breakthrough.”

Trivariate Research Adam Parker's says buy non-tech stocks with growth potential. Trivariate Research debuted a new basket of companies called “non-technology compounders” for investors looking to extend their portfolio beyond high-growth technology stocks. Founder and CEO Adam Parker wrote in a weekend report to clients that Trivariate is “more neutral than bullish on U.S. equities” to start the new year.
S&P 500 earnings expectations look too high, particularly in technology and industrials sectors, and the penalty for companies that miss Wall Street’s estimates has been harsh, Trivariate argued. The researcher is also concerned that the median stock in the S & P 500 is finding it increasingly tough to widen profit margins and that any future Federal Reserve interest rate cuts won’t lift forward price-to-earnings ratios as much as in the past three years.
Among those companies in the basket are Amazon, NextEra, Philip Morris, Visa, Booking Holdings, Visa, and Uber

RT @illscience: this is a super important principle: price is a proxy for product-market fit
Marc Andreessen: “I’m always urging founders to raise prices, raise prices, raise prices.”
“We spend a lot of time working with our companies on pricing,” a16z co-founder Marc Andreessen explains. “It’s really this magical art and science that a lot of companies don’t take seriously enough.”
Marc continues:
“A core principle of pricing is that you don’t want to price by cost if you can avoid it. You want to price by value. Especially when you’re selling to businesses, you want to price as a percentage of the business value you’re creating.”
He gives the example of building an AI that can do the job of a programmer, a lawyer, or a radiologist:
“Can you price by value and get a percentage of what otherwise would’ve literally been a person? Or equivalently can you price by marginal productivity? If you can take a human doctor and make them much more productive because you give them AI, can you price as a percentage of the productivity uplift?”
Marc argues that high prices are under-appreciated by founders:
“The naive view on pricing is the lower the pricing, the better it is for the customer. The more sophisticated way of looking at it is that higher prices are often good for the customer because the higher price means the vendor can make the product better, faster. Companies with higher prices and higher margins can actually invest more in R&D and make the product better. Most people who buy things aren’t just looking for the cheapest price. They want something that’s going to work really well.”
Marc also emphasizes this point in an interview in Elad Gil’s High Growth Handbook:
“What I hear from companies is, ‘Oh, we have an awesome moat, and we’re still going to price our product cheap, because we think that’s somehow going to maximize our business.’ I’m always urging founders to raise prices, raise prices, raise prices. I’m always urging founders to raise prices, raise prices, raise prices.
First of all, raising prices is a great way to flesh out whether you actually do have a moat. If you do have a moat, the customers will still buy, because they have to. The definition of a moat is the ability to charge more. And so number one, it’s just a good way to flesh out that topic and really expose it to sunlight.
And then number two, companies that charge more can better fund both their distribution efforts and their ongoing R&D efforts. Charging more is a key lever to be able to grow. And the companies that charge more therefore tend to grow faster.
That’s counterintuitive to a lot of engineers. A lot of engineers think there’s a one-dimensional relationship between price and value. They have this mental model of commerce like they’re selling rice or something. It’s like, “My product is magical and nobody can replicate it, and I need to price it like it’s a commodity.” No, you don’t. In fact, quite the opposite. If you price it high, then you can fund a much more expensive sales and marketing effort, which means you’re much more likely to win the market, which means you’re much more likely to be able afford to do all the R&D and acquisitions you’re going to want to do. And so we always try to snap people into a two-dimensional mindset, where higher prices equals faster growth.”
