ANECDOTE

Buying A Spinoff During EV Fear

  • Gary bought spinoff Finia during EV fear because its aftermarket business was steady and undervalued.
  • He bought at ~15% free cash flow yield and still holds a small position after rerating.
INSIGHT

The Price Asks The Question

  • The price you pay dictates which questions you must answer about a business's future.
  • Lower prices reduce the need to solve long-term uncertainties because short-term cash recovers capital.
ADVICE

Choose Time Horizon To Fit Your Pattern

  • Match your time horizon to the investment pattern you pursue, like turnarounds or compounders.
  • Don't copy others; choose strategies within your circle of competence.
