Fundamental equity research is at a crossroads for the public equity investor. A plethora of alternative data paid expert networks, and pricey third-party research has increased the cost to generate insights from these sources. It’s overwhelming and way beyond budget.
I think there’s a better way to do this. So, I am launching this Substack to develop a network of investors, operators, industry experts, and first adopters across the technology landscape. This is a collaborative relationship—I’ll get to ask many questions about the critical factors impacting my coverage to the network, synthesize it into something cogent, and share what we learned with our subscribers.
What should you expect? (1) Periodic emails discussing industries, verticals, and companies we cover, along with the critical factors we are doing research on. In those emails, we’ll put out a survey or questionnaire for insights. (2) Results and key insights from the surveys and questionnaires. (3) Periodic investment memos on companies or verticals that incorporate the insights we gained from the community. Win-win.
Ultimately, the objective is to create a high-quality research community where contributing a few minutes of perspective can produce a much richer body of insight for the group. This totally opt-in and will take a couple of tries to get right, but I think it’ll be worthwhile.
What are the sectors and industries we cover?
Hardware: semiconductors, consumer devices, enterprise and data center hardware, electric vehicles, robotics, clean and renewable energy.
Software: Hyperscalers, AI labs, neoclouds, cloud infrastructure, data management / observability / DevOps, cybersecurity, enterprise software.
Internet: Social media, adtech, consumer services, streaming & entertainment.
Let me know what you think and if you have any questions or ideas to help make this more successful.
Cheers,
Muhammad
