Invest in what you know.
That’s solid advice as long as you put in the work and see business models for what they are.
I love gaming as a topic and a pastime. I would rather speculate hog futures than buy a gaming stock (excluding Nintendo).
The AAA gaming model is broken; long and expensive development cycles (at least 5 years and $100M budgets) with customer tastes that change every 2-3 years.
From soulslikes to battle royales to looter shooters to open world RPGs to metroidvanias. By the time a new project is greenlit, tastes are starting to change.
If more AA or indie studios were publicly traded, I would try my luck. Unfortunately, it’s slim pickings out there
I love gaming but it’s way outside my circle of competence as an investor. Plus my personal bias would cloud my judgement.
My preferred reading flow: Balance Sheet > Cash Flow Statement > Income Statement.
It’s quite insightful to see how assets values change over time and how that lines up with cash generation (or consumption).
The income statement is the cherry on top. It’s also good for basic competitor analysis
Fastenal, Chr. Hansen, and Moody's have one thing in common: they form essential lines in other businesses' cost structures.
Chr. Hansen was the market leader in microbial cultures and enzymes used in food production. Its products form less than 1% of customer’s production input by weight while having an outsized impact on the final product. Yogurt is only as good as the microbial culture. Essential.
Fastenal’s industrial fasteners literally hold customer products together. Essential.
Without Moody’s, companies would find it hard to raise debt. Essential.
Companies like these tend to produce outsized returns over time.
I try to avoid price charts when analysing a company.
The reason is simple; anchoring.
It’s easy to use historical stock prices as anchors to make a judgement on whether a stock is cheap or expensive.
The bias morphes into confirmation bias and information filtering.
If a stock is at historical lows and I think it’s cheap, best believe I’ll find the patterns to confirm that view….
So I go straight to the financials instead.
I look at all stocks beneath a market cap threshold.
Only exclude industries that are currently outside my circle of competence (biotech, REITs, Mining).
No valuation screeners.
I go through the 10 year snapshot of every stock’s financials.
