UGGGH.....SOFI Stock
Summary
Luke presents a thesis focused on long-term "buy and hold" investing, which Luke contrasts with short-term trading. Luke highlights that judging a stock's quality by its current price is a mistake, as seen with the history of Palantir. Luke emphasizes that price fluctuations should only determine whether to buy more shares, not whether the underlying business is successful.
Mentioned Stocks
Reasoning: Luke mentions Nvidia to show that concerns over dilution are often unfounded when a company achieves massive growth. Luke argues that investors who focused too much on dilution with Nvidia missed out on the enormous appreciation. Luke uses this to explain that share-based compensation is a valid tool if it improves the business.
Reasoning: Luke emphasizes SoFi's high credit quality and a 40% growth rate compared to traditional banks. Luke argues that the company's dilution was a strategic move that successfully increased revenue and earnings per share. Luke also notes that many long-term investors have entry points between $5 and $12 per share and that Luke has achieved a 240% return over three years by ignoring short-term volatility.
Reasoning: Luke uses Palantir to demonstrate that stocks are often best to buy when they are perceived as 'terrible' by the market due to low prices. Luke states that Luke accumulated shares for three years while the price was below $10, specifically as low as $6, which is the strategy Luke recommends for building massive wealth.
