After Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 Presidential race in July, something notable happened: Zoom, the videoconferencing app, was used as a political rally call for Kamala Harris. On a Thursday summer night, a Zoom fundraiser attracted more than 200,000 viewers, making it the largest Zoom call in history. Several other Zoom fundraising calls have followed, started by diverse communities like "White Dudes for Harris," "Dead Heads for Harris," "Cat Ladies for Kamala," and...

The biggest question is whether men will buy Clark shoes. I empathically believe yes. Hype and cultural shifts are not gender or even age-exclusive.
Take, for example, Donald Trump, who has said deplorable things against women. His actions against women have been equally disgraceful, yet he has millions of supporters who are women.
Taylor Swift’s fanbase is distributed uniformly across...

Recently, the Lakers hired former player and current podcaster/ESPN analyst JJ Redick as their new head coach. Redick is the same age as LeBron James. He also has no coaching experience beyond youth basketball. Yes, you have read that correctly—a professional basketball team has hired a coach who has not even coached middle schoolers!
There is nothing wrong with being optimistic about Redick as a coach, but how can anyon...

Revolve’s Strategic Expansion: From Digital Success to Physical Triumph in Aspen
Revolve's venture into brick-and-mortar retail with its first Aspen, Colorado store was not just a success but a triumph. The initial pop-up store in December was a mere glimpse of the potential, and the decision to sign a multi-year lease was a resounding testament to Revolve's ability to exceed its own expectations.
Why does this matter? Revolve, a digital-first business that has been ...

It is important to remember that the growth is still early in markets that are still evolving. Evaluating these companies based on traditional valuation metrics is problematic because these industries are far less static than other sectors. Both have bright futures, but Zoom would have a slight edge if I had to choose the better long-term investment based on a risk and rewa...

What's happening is that these companies are maturing. They are more predictable and closer to the consensus, aligning closer within parity to the general market. The Magnificent 7 is no longer a group of companies that produces alpha; it is a risk management group. The days of these names creating outsized gains in your portfolio are likely over. These companies will succumb to the law of large numbers, ev...

Cancer and Herpes are only two potential growth catalysts for Moderna. The company has a long runway for growth, with over 45 developing drugs and 38 ongoing clinical trials. There's a buffet selection of diseases, even though most of these trials will fail. Getting 10-15 drugs approved in the next five years could give Moderna a higher market cap than any other biotech company.

Myth #1: Quants, sophisticated algorithms, and the brightest minds in the world struggle to beat the market, and most do not. The odds are that Sam from Nebraska will not outperform the market and is better off not playing around with individual stocks. Just invest in index funds.
