Tokyo Deep Value
Tokyo Deep Value@TokyoDeepValue·
Called the IR line for a Japanese net-net trading at 0.4x book with more cash than market cap. Rings twice. A woman answers. “Hai, de gozaimasu.” I butcher my way through asking for investor relations in Japanese. Long pause. I switch to English. Longer pause. “One moment please.” Hold music. It’s a MIDI version of a song I think I recognize from a Studio Ghibli film. Three minutes pass. Four. “Hello. This is Tanaka-san. General Affairs.” Not IR. General Affairs. The department that orders the office slippers. “Hi, I’m a shareholder. I had some questions about capital allocation.” A pause so long I check if the call dropped. “Yes.” That’s the whole response. Yes. “You’re holding ¥80 billion in cash. Your market cap is ¥55 billion. Have you considered a buyback?” “We are studying.” “For how long?” “Since 2009.” I laugh. He does not laugh. “What about the cross-shareholdings? You own stakes in seven other listed companies worth roughly ¥30 billion.” “These are important business relationships. Tanaka-san at Sumitomo and our president were at university together.” Different Tanaka-san. I don’t ask. “Are there plans to unwind them?” “We review annually.” “And the conclusion?” “To continue reviewing.” I hear a fax machine in the background. An actual fax machine. In 2026. “The activist fund that filed last quarter — are you engaging with their proposals?” “We received the letter. We are considering carefully.” “They sent it eight months ago.” “Yes. Carefully.” A long silence. I can hear someone in the background unwrapping what sounds like a rice cracker. “Tanaka-san, with respect, the company has traded below book for fourteen years.” “The market will understand eventually.” “When?” “When it is time.” He thanks me four times for my interest. I thank him three times. We bow at each other through the phone. I hang up. Stock is unchanged. Has been unchanged. The cash pile grew another ¥2 billion last quarter. Tanaka-san is reviewing.

This doesn’t make sense. Any serious businesses that a PE is thinking of buying won’t be disrupted by Claude in the next five years. Any sophisticated investor would see that in an instant. Distribution of a product perfected over decades and client relationships that are the result of years of trust will not be disrupted by some 23 year old analyst vibe coding before an IC meeting.

Diligence in 2026 is wild. My friends in PE are now spending the weekend before IC trying to rebuild the company they're acquiring in Claude Code. If the clone works, the deal dies. Cheapest moat test in human history.

For context, the London marathon guy ran the equivalent of - the one mile world record time from 100 years ago… 26.2 times. In a row. 😂 absolutely wild.

Vibe coding so hard that Claude knows what you're building better than you do

Only few times in this space does one come around novel concepts. If you dig deeper into $NOCK you'll realize that this concept dates many years back. I highly recommend reading all the documentation. Might take an entire weekend to digest. Worth it. docs.nockchain.org
