re: how hard is it to buy into a franchise business
Posted by kaaj24 on 4/26/24 at 9:51 am
If you’re only going to own one franchise it’s like buying a job for yourself.

re: Japan’s Nikkei plunges 3%
Posted by kaaj24 on 4/19/24 at 6:44 am
I don’t think the limited strikes are that big of deal as of now.
Price targets are resetting because of interest rates and realization that interest rate cuts aren’t coming.
Earning season next week will give some indication of where the market may go....
re: Boeing?
Posted by kaaj24 on 4/13/24 at 6:14 pm
I no longer buy stocks on weakness. They have bad organizational culture. It’s one thing to produce poorly made apparel. Lack of safety in planes can kill people. The fact that they’ve deprioritized safety is terrible given their product....

I definitely think at minimum you have to use skepticism when reviewing reports from the government.
I follow what the large institutional investors are doing as I believe they see through the crap as they’re able to analyze independent metrics that I don't have time to digest.
