Data I/O (NASDAQ: DAIO): Device Programming and Security Provisioning for Manufactured Products

My guest on the show today is Anthony Ambrose, President & CEO of Data I/O (NASDAQ: DAIO). Data I/O (NASDAQ: DAIO) is a global provider of advanced data and security deployment solutions. These solutions are used by some of the world’s largest manufacturers, programming centers, and contract manufacturers to securely program integrated circuits and bring their electronic devices to life. Virtually every electronic product today incorporates one or more programmable semiconductor devices that contain data and operating instructions essential for the proper operation of the product.   You hear that description, and one thinks, "ok, I can wrap my head around that", but then when you ask the question after, "ok, well what does that mean?", that's when the fun part of being a hightech MicroCap comes into play. Now, what do I mean when I say that - well, not every MicroCap story is as simple as a consumer goods story or some SaaS platform - that is both what provides opportunity and, conversely, barriers to entry if something sounds too complicated.    In the case of Data I/O, they are somewhere in the middle, but I say all of this because we spend the first part of the interview working through the best way to understand their business for the every day, non-hightech investor. We also discuss: Automotive electronics growth and their place in this market Understanding the SentriX platform, and; Vision for the company for the next 3-5 years With that, please enjoy my conversation with Anthony Ambrose, President & CEO of Data I/O.

”Top Tier” Ideas Track in Las Vegas, Top Tier Criteria and Sneak Peak at 4 Presenters: $ATGN $INX.V $LIFD $HGBL with Maj Soueidan, Founder & Editor of GeoInvesting.com

My guest on the show today is Maj Soueidan, Founder & CEO of GeoInvesting.com. In my opinion, Maj is a legend in MicroCap investing. In my nearly 10+ years of getting to know Maj, his investing style, and how he evaluates companies, he's on the Mount Rushmore of MicroCap investors of the last 20+ years. This is the reason I invite Maj to be a guest on my show, as well as headline any conference we do. When he speaks, you should listen, and if you have a chance to meet him and chat with him, you should. Maj will be hosting a Top Tier Track on Day 2 of our upcoming conference: the Planet MicroCap Showcase, happening on April 25-27, 2023. This has been an idea we've chatted about for years and finally making it happen. Basically, MicroCap management teams that fit Maj's "Top Tier" criteria (which we describe in today's pod), will be giving 10-15 overviews of their businesses followed by Q&A with Maj and the audience. I'm really excited about this part of our agenda, and wanted to dedicate an episode of the pod to, yes shamelessly plug our upcoming event in Vegas (not going to deny that), but also discuss what the idea is, Maj's Top Tier criteria, why this criteria is important to digest with the current state of the markets and discuss a few names that will be participating. Maj and I always have a fun, lively conversation and this should serve as a fun preview of what you can expect in Las Vegas if you choose to join us.  For more information about GeoInvesting.com, please visit: https://geoinvesting.com/ You can Follow Maj Soueidan on Twitter @majgeoinvesting: https://twitter.com/majgeoinvesting To register for the upcoming Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS happening on April 25-27, 2023, please visit: https://planetmicrocapshowcase.com/  Today's episode is sponsored by: Stream by AlphaSense, an expert interview transcript library that integrates AI-generated call summaries and NLP search technology so their clients can quickly pinpoint the most critical insights.

Why Latin America is One of the Most Under-Followed and Under-Invested Regions in the World with Patrick Flood, Investment Analyst at LATAM Stocks

My guest on the show today is Patrick Flood, Investment Analysts for the LATAM Stocks Newsletter. Latin America consists of 20 countries and a population of more than 650 million people, and it is one of, maybe even the most under followed and under invested regions in the world. Is it geopolitical risk (no doubt there's that and not diminishing the significance of that risk whatsoever - we talk about it at length), but could it also be, well - it's also really hard to find good information about investments in Latin America, especially in English. That's where Patrick and his newsletter, LATAM Stocks enters the conversation. He's an expat, who's been living in Brazil full time for the last 10 years, After starting out working at a boutique asset manager, he moved on to work as an M&A analyst at a family office, then went on to work as Chief Gringo (yes that’s an official job title, look it up) at one of the largest crypto currency exchanges in Latin America. Equity analysis is his first love, and he does the dirty work, a la one of our favorites here, Paul Andreola - Patrick goes through every local Latin American exchange, and dives deep into their financial statements. Needlesstosay, I'm now a fan, and really enjoyed my conversation with Patrick covering all things Latin America.

Today, we chat about working together, how this came out, our own takes on the financial podcast arena (already alluded to my main take here), as well as a debrief on what he learned from his investment in Twitter last year, corporate governance takes based on a current idea Andrew is working on and we close out on what to expect in Las Vegas for the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS!   For more information about Yet Another Value Podcast/Blog, please visit: https://yetanothervalueblog.substack.com/   You can Follow Andrew Walker on Twitter @AndrewRangeley: https://twitter.com/AndrewRangeley   Today's episode is sponsored by: Stream by AlphaSense, an expert interview transcript library that integrates AI-generated call summaries and NLP search technology so their clients can quickly pinpoint the most critical insights.

2022 in a Nutshell, Recognizing Mistakes, Improving his Process and 2023 Outlook with Yaron Naymark, Founder and Portfolio Manager at 1 Main Capital

For today's show, I invited back on Yaron Naymark, Founder and Portfolio Manager at 1 Main Capital. Last time I had Yaron on the show, it was in July 2022 chatting about the First Half 2022 MicroCap bloodbath, which of course we all know, got worse (Planet MicroCap Index was down ~40% for the year). I've had a few investors on here to start 2023, where we dissected 2022, what worked, what didn't, and while Yaron and I start off the conversation that way, the reason I always enjoy having him on the show is that he has a unique ability to simplify. I just have to ask one question on what happened in 2022, and I think Yaron covers that question as succinctly and clearly as anyone; in 15 minutes no less. So, we chat about 2022, recognizing mistakes, improving his process, his 2023 outlook and a short back and forth about morality with investing.
