Minor changes to the portfolio in April 2026. Added to $META Meta, $MA Mastercard, $AMZN Amazon, $BN Brookfield, and $FICO FICO. Only buys. The portfolio is built around some of the world’s strongest, highest‑moat platforms, with a heavy tilt toward scalable, asset‑light, data and network effects businesses. These companies benefit from immense economies of scale, proprietary infrastructure, pricing power, and data advantages that reinforce their moats as they grow. Their revenue bases skew toward recurring or highly repeat‑purchase models (cloud subscriptions, advertising, developer and enterprise contracts, etc.) with strong operating leverage, making incremental margins very attractive as utilization increases. I continue to remain very bullish on the portfolio.

$NOW ServiceNow’s Investor Day was a bold statement that the company isn't just surviving the AI revolution...it’s leading it. Management made it clear that they want to be the "central nervous system" for big businesses. Instead of companies having to use dozens of different AI tools that don't talk to each other, ServiceNow wants everything to run through their platform. They are betting that by being the glue that holds a company's technology together, they become a permanent fixture that no business can afford to turn off. One of the biggest highlights was how much money they expect to make specifically from AI. They raised their targets significantly, showing that customers aren't just curious about AI, but they are already paying for it. Interestingly, they are moving away from just charging per person and are starting to charge based on how much the AI is actually used. For an investor, this is exciting because it means as a company grows and automates more tasks, ServiceNow gets a bigger slice of the pie without needing more employees to log in. Financially, the company is a powerhouse. They are pulling off a rare feat: growing their sales very quickly while also keeping a massive amount of their revenue as pure profit. They have so much extra cash that they are buying back their own stock in record amounts, which is a classic move to reward long-term shareholders. They are also using that cash to buy smaller, innovative tech companies to stay ahead of the competition in cybersecurity and automation. The big takeaway is that ServiceNow is trying to prove it is a quality company/stock. While other software companies are worried that AI might replace them, ServiceNow is using AI to make their software more valuable. They are focused on high margins, loyal customers, and a massive market opportunity, positioning themselves as a safe but high-growth bet for the next decade.

$NOW ServiceNow has fallen roughly 60% from its high, now trading near $90. The selloff has been driven by fears that AI commoditizes workflow software and that enterprise IT budgets are softening. Consensus has shifted from "secular winner" to "structurally challenged" in under twelve months. Valuation has compressed materially. The fundamentals tell a different story. FY2025 revenue grew 21%. Free cash flow reached $4.6 billion. Q1 2026 subscription revenue grew 22%. Remaining performance obligations stand at $27.7 billion, up 25%. This does not look like a business in decline. Sunday special deep dive dropping at 10am ET: open.substack.com/pub/qualityequ…

Dev Kantesaria, the founder of Valley Forge Capital Management, focuses on an exceptionally concentrated portfolio of monopoly-like businesses that possess massive competitive moats. His approach is rooted in the belief that true wealth is built by owning a small handful of elite companies (compounding machines) that provide mission-critical services and have the power to raise prices regardless of the economic climate. Rather than obsessing over short-term stock market fluctuations, Kantesaria looks for predictable, high-margin businesses with low capital intensity, allowing them to compound free cash flow per share for decades. Dev ignores the noise of the broader market, practicing extreme patience and only investing when he finds a business that is virtually impossible to disrupt. He does not diversify in the traditional sense. Instead, Dev holds high conviction in each business and constructs his portfolio as such, a deliberate refusal to dilute the best ideas with merely good ones.

Most public companies do not have network effects. They have brand recognition, scale advantages, regulatory protection, or customer inertia...useful things, but not the same thing. The distinction matters because businesses with genuine network effects exhibit a property no other moat type provides: their competitive position strengthens as they grow. The moat widens with scale rather than narrowing under competitive pressure. For an investor whose goal is to identify businesses that can compound capital for decades, this property is worth understanding precisely. New report releasing tomorrow morning at 8:30am ET: open.substack.com/pub/qualityequ…

$FICO FICO just reported a very strong quarter. Earnings per share were much higher than both last year and what Wall Street expected, and revenue grew at a healthy double‑digit rate. The company continues to show that its business model is very profitable and still growing. Despite this strong performance, the stock price has fallen a lot this year. That means the business is doing well while investor sentiment is weak. For a company that provides essential credit scores and decision software to banks and lenders, that kind of gap between fundamentals and stock price can be interesting for long‑term investors. FICO’s latest results also highlight strong pricing power. The company has been able to charge more for its scores and software because they are mission‑critical tools for banks, card issuers, and other lenders, and there are very few true substitutes. Management has indicated in past communications that they see room to keep raising prices over time, especially on core Scores and in software contracts, as long as they keep delivering more value and innovation to customers. They tend to frame pricing as a long‑term lever rather than a one‑time bump, so investors should expect periodic price increases to remain part of the growth algorithm, not a one‑off event.

FICO may have reported their best quarter ever. - EPS: +69% YoY - Revenue: +39% YoY - FICO Scores: +60% YoY - B2B Mortgage Scores: +127% YoY - GAAP Operating Margin: +58.2% YoY Looks like you can continue to raise prices. $FICO

Planning to release a deep dive research report on $CSU Constellation Software over the next few weeks via Substack. Be sure to check out qualityequities.substack.com where I release high-quality equity and thematic research.
Quality Equities@qualityequities

Most serial acquirers eventually collapse under their own weight. As they get bigger, they run out of small, high-return deals and start "diworsifying"—buying large, mediocre companies at high prices just to move the needle. Since 2023, $CSU Constellation Software has deployed over $7 billion into new acquisitions. While competitors see their returns decay, Constellation has maintained a consolidated ROIC north of 20% (using their adjusted methodology). Mark Leonard didn’t build a corporation. He built an ecosystem. By decentralizing capital allocation across six operating groups and hundreds of sub-managers—all incentivized by ROIC—he created a "multicellular" organism. If one cell fails, the body thrives. With the new PEMS (Permanent Engaged Minority Shareholder) strategy, Constellation is now hunting in deeper waters—taking large, forever-stakes in public giants. Between the recent valuation compression (~16x FCF) and the launch of the PEMS engine, investors are looking at a rare entry point into one of the most disciplined capital allocation machines ever built.

$SBUX Starbucks is reportedly doing a better job of getting people back into their cafes. While some investors have been skeptical, $MS Morgan Stanley believes the bear case is getting weaker. They expect the company to report better sales numbers than most of Wall Street currently anticipates.

$DDOG Datadog is seeing a surge in its core business of helping companies monitor their cloud software. Even though the stock recently took a breather, the "under the hood" checks look great. Analysts expect them to grow around 30%, making the current lower stock price an attractive entry point for investors.

When we look at businesses through the lens of quality, we look for moats...those competitive advantages that allow a company to earn high returns on capital for a long time. $MS Morgan Stanley currently sees several companies that fit this mold, suggesting they have strong momentum heading into their upcoming earnings reports. Here is a simple breakdown of their top picks:
