The @IntrinsicInv blog by the Ensemble Team is such a gold mine for nuanced explanations of many fundamental investing concepts. 👏

I learned a lot over the years from the wonderful writings of Sean, @ToddWenning, Paul and Arif. 🙏

Still here.🙋‍♂️Just got busy with some non-investing aspects of my life over the last few months.

As painful as 2022 was, it also gave me an oppty to slowly add to existing or new pos at prices I expect to fondly look back on few yrs down the lane.

Few examples (not recs) ⬇️
$MDB : Before the crash, it was X shares at avg price of $208. Now it's 5X shares at avg price of $226

$AXON : Started in 2022 with multiple adds, with current avg of $120

$ALGN : Before the crash, it was X shares at avg price of $210. Now it's 2.5X shares at avg price of $222
$MELI : Added at $680, first add to the position since 2014.

$META : Added at $92, first add to the position since 2016.

$AMZN : Added at $95, first add to the position since 2018.

Slowly setting my cash on fire again this week.

Small adds to existing pos
$META (Social is done)
$NOW (Who needs IT monitoring anyway?)
$ALGN (Everyone from now one will have perfectly aligned teeth)
$SQ (hey guys, focus plz, actually)
$MDB (Recession will kill need for DBs).
Kidding aside, the next few qtrs are highly uncertain from a lot of aspects, but not all Cos are the same when it comes to credit dependence for capital stack/customer demand...
..cyclicality and severity of business impact during an actual recession, runway for core growth post any recession, ability to use this period to acquire smaller competitors etc.

I love investing quotes so much, that I tried coming up with 10 of them incorporating lessons for the current situation. Let me know if any of these resonate with you and which one's your fav
1⃣ The time of maximum pleasure (from all those recent/quick big gains) could actually be the time of maximum risk (when the forward R/R could be quite unfavorable).
The time of maximum pain (from all the recent losses & negative headlines) could actually be the time of maximum potential (as long as you're investing in high Quality Cos at attractive prices for a long-term hold).
