After a recent blowout of $ATER (though I still haven't sold a single share), I have slightly reevaluated my approach to investing in small, emerging companies.
๐งต1/7
2/7
As the first measure, I made a few adjustments in my investing framework (documented in my upcoming eBook) to make it more rigorous.
My investing framework consists of a number of key components I always look at in every company when I do in-depth research on them.
3/7
Key components of my investing framework:
1. Company Background 2. Technology 3. Total Addressable Market 4. MOAT 5. Business Model 6. Team 7. Ownership 8. Financials 9. Valuation 10. Risks 11. Optionality
4/7
Previously, the companies that featured on my list of potential #multibaggers had to meet most but not all of the key components.
I was more loyal to some companies, allowing them to develop and gain certain parts from that list over time.
5/7
Going forward, companies must meet all the components of my investing framework (or be very close to meeting them in the very near future).
It does not change my investing theses for all companies I've mentioned before $ATER $SKLZ $BFLY $LCID $SENS $MTTR $DMTK.
6/7
Though all of these companies are at the stage of building a foundation for the future scale, not all of them meet my investing framework criteria.
Being very disciplined and strict with my picks will increase the qlty of my investing and future research on other companies.
7/7
I'll continue to monitor the rest of these companies, and as soon as they develop all necessary components, I'll revisit them.
Today $FUBO, one of my potential #multibaggers, publishes its Q2 earnings.
Some expectations and thoughts below๐๐ป
๐งต1/6
2/6
$FUBO has previously raised its guidance for both Q2 and the full year.
I want to see if it continues (especially after the hot summer with the Olympics), and they will raise the guidance for Q3 and the full year, respectively.
3/6
Next, apart from the obvious (increase in MAU subscriptions), I am curious to see $FUBO 's numbers in advertising part of their business.
I assume that closer to the end of Q2, fuboTV must have attracted more advertisers in anticipation of the Olympics.
I want to introduce a long-term play on my list of potential #Multibaggers that is just getting started, $SENS (@senseonics)
