The Compound and Friends: Squid Game and the Metaverse

The Irrelevant Investor

On this week's TCAF Josh and I had on one of the sharpest minds in finance, Dan McMurtrie, sometimes known SuperMugatu.

That was cute. Google is now worth twice as much.

Let the Market Worry For You

The Irrelevant Investor

Let me tell you about the time when my brain was poisoned. It was October 2012 and I was at my first financial conference. I'm early in my career and had little reason to be optimistic. My experiences until that point had been nothing but negative. I spent my time during the GFC as a waiter at an upscale restaurant. Business was dead. The last 6 months of my tenure were spent playing arcade games while patrons mostly stayed home.

Packy McCormick. $10,000 invested in Packy 1 year ago is worth 4 ETH, 7 SOL, and a gateway into what's coming next. I'm not very good at seeing around corners. Heck, I have a hard time seeing what's happening on the edges today.

We believe U.S. mid-caps offer attractive historical performance and a broad swatch of companies with sound fundamentals. In fact, we believe that, today, many of the cutting-edge companies that growth investors seek reside in the mid-cap universe.
