Is this thing on? 🎙️ The Razor's Edge is back after a 22-month pause, though really, how much has changed in markets? @akramsrazor and I talk AI and some of the fundamental tensions in the different narratives around it. From bull to bear, singularity to doomerism. Link below

Here's the performance table: $DALN, $AAPL, $SCS, $ATRO, $LYFT, and $ECG keyed the winner side, while $PTLO, $PGR, and $LULU were the main detractors.

We had a good quarter with a few buyouts and some meaningful jumps. I talked up my two biggest portfolio adds - $CPAY and $GOGO - plus a bunch of situational stuff we have added ($HI, $BHF, $AL, and $TFSL). middlecoastinvesting.com/middle-coast-i…

It's quarterly letter season, and I'm happy to share Middle Coast Investing's! We had a strong Q3, with the fortune of several buyouts and a few stocks jumping as keys to the quarter. I start the letter, though, talking about using and investing in AI. (Link in next post)

I updated on my $TRIP position for The Investment Cut (run by a friend and former colleague), and how the Starboard 9% position fits into the thesis. Between that and $DALN agreeing to a buyout, lucky start to Q3 for Middle Coast Investing. investmentcut.pro/assessing-trip…

Elevator Pitch for today: Deckers Outdoor Corp $DECK by Middle Coast Investing @DanielShortman M/cap: $15.6b forward P/E: x17.3 Deckers sells shoes, under the Uggs, Hoka, and Teva brands primarily. Uggs is 51% of its sales in the last fiscal year; Hoka is 45%; Teva and assorted brands are the rest. Its finished goods are completed ‘predominantly in Vietnam.’

Here's the portfolio performance: The finish wasn't as good as I would have liked, but we didn't sink as much as the market and held up well.

Among things I cover New positions in $DECK and $LYFT (though small) $LULU's bumpy quarter Boring stocks like $ABM, $SCS, and $FG The $TRIP news from last week middlecoastinvesting.com/middle-coast-i…

Happy to share my Q2 letter for Middle Coast Investing. Markets have more than recovered since Liberation Day, but I suspect more heavy stuff is to come. I talk about the positives and negatives out there, my portfolio, and a few position changes in the post below.

The pitch for $ECG came from Middle Coast Investing @DanielShortman Be sure to give them a follow!

With the market finishing above April 2nd levels on Friday, I thought it would be worth busting the video format back out. • 3 reasons that might explain the recovery • 2 things investors should keep in mind. Summing up to The Stock Market 5: youtube.com/watch?v=GmWKSS…
