$ROP +6% after a beat and raise
Interesting comments from the CC:
- we expect the private values to mirror those or come down to the public values. We're starting to see some very early signs of that 👀
- [Sponsors] understand the valuation world that we live in (...) the new 15 is yesterday's 25 [valuation multiple] 👀👀
- [investment bankers] pipelines are quite busy and quite full 👀👀👀
Easy depiction of what’s being bought versus sold. Market is still betting on speculative expensive cap-ex dependent businesses with no earnings visibility past 12-24 months. Gonna be a rough time when hyperscalers pull back.
@BramVGenechten Buying back shares during a semi boom with elevated valuations / multiples isn’t smart. The shares were literally $700 USD 1 year ago and they can just as easily fall back down to that price once a hyperscaler announces cap ex spend cuts.
