On What's Porter's Controversial "A.I. Keystone?"

I just read about SMRs as an option for Blackstone’s huge investment into data centres. Electricity demand definitely is a key component in their longterm thesis, so high initial costs per kW might be fine when viewed over a long time horizon. I liked BW[...]

On Friday File: Pre-earnings Hodgepodge (Berkshire, Roku, Domino's and more)

..being so heavily weighted in AAPL is interesting. AAPL is a tough nut to crack. I've held it for a long time and it's absolutely crushed the market. However, 'I wonder how much more growth can we expect going forward?' I said this many, many times over[...]

On Friday File Bonus: What Should Markel Really be Worth?

Knowing how you heavily weight leadership when valuating of a company, I thought you might be interested in this interview with Blackstone's Schwartzman. He's a big reason why I've invested in BX for so long (with excellent returns). I see continued scali[...]

On Answers: "No. 1 AI Stock of 2023 (Get It for $2)" teased by Jason Williams, "Like Buying Google in 2004"

Interestingly, I bought BWXT in late 2020 after my personal research into nuclear energy. They are the picks and shovel play on the solid, long term, future of nuclear energy. It's not a fast mover, and I don't expect it to be, but I think it should con[...]

On Answers: "No. 1 AI Stock of 2023 (Get It for $2)" teased by Jason Williams, "Like Buying Google in 2004"

I'm intrigued by INOD, thanks. What aspect(s) is/are most compelling about the company for you? It's now at almost $14. What do you conservatively think it is worth? Thanks for any insights.[...]

On Friday File: U-Haul, Teqnion, a $100K Lock Box addition... and a Couple new Watchlist Stocks

On Friday File: U-Haul, Teqnion, a $100K Lock Box addition... and a Couple new Watchlist Stocks

" it’s possible that they’re taking on a lot more risk than it appears. " This is a very insightful comment, and definitely not a throw-away line. The projections for ocean warming and sea-level rise are quite robust, and these present obvious hurrica[...]

On Friday File Bonus: What Should Markel Really be Worth?

Thanks for that updated valuation Travis. I've always been curious why you haven't been a longtime buyer and holder of Blackstone BX? That group seems to be right up your investment alley. Would you consider looking at this behemoth for your portfolio and[...]

On "If I had to pick one stock.... World’s No. 1 Stock When Gold Booms" teased by Dan Ferris

That Stansberry conglomerate has been propping up Sprott products for decades now. They've got to have a deal where Stansberry gets paid to pitch a different Sprott fund to all its subscribers every couple years or so. I've never seen it work out for the[...]
