$1,200
Good morning, everyone! I am currently paying $1,200 per year to keep this community going. I don't mind paying that if it's valuable, but engagement has waned in recent weeks. (Including from myself!) Unless anyone has better ideas, I will plan to close the community over the next month. My wife and I are trying to save up to buy a "new" used car for our family to replace my 2011 Prius, so the savings will be nice. I will continue to post videos on YouTube, but my only other "community" will be on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/nathanwinklepleck

I think most of us here have tight schedules. Although personally, I could have dedicated more of my time to engaging in community activities, I truly appreciate Nathan's initiative to gather an open-access investor community like this. I'm sure we have learned some very valuable things from each other here! However, the operating costs should not be covered from Nathan's personal pocket. Open access to the community should either be funded by attracting sponsorships or moved to a free service provider like a Telegram channel or Facebook group. Let's keep our fingers crossed that we manage to find the right solution to maintain Nathan's initiative!š¤

Mars to buy Kellanova
What do you think about the recent Mars deal to acquire Kellanova? Is it still a good deal to buy Kellanova for $80 per share, considering the acquisition price of $83.50 per share? šš°š More about Mars - Kellanova deal here: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/snickers-maker-mars-pay-83-024158621.html

Well the agreement seems to be already taken place. I think it should go through, unless small likelihood of some unexpected regulatory issues.

CEOs matter...
If you didn't already know this--and, trust me, this took a loonnnnnggg time for me to learn--CEOs make a huge difference to the performance of a company and, by extension, its stock price. Starbucks got a new CEO today (the ex-CEO of Chipotle) and the stock rallied 23% in one day... all because of one person. If he can turn around Starbucks like he turned around Chipotle in March 2018, investors are looking at a fantastic investment. There are lots of issues, though... What do you think? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/starbucks-ceo-shakeup-sends-investors-buzzing-but-its-new-leader-faces-an-uphill-climb-195000389.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAKan2Fg_VBQIJ8SlSxlVrptAkRWIAD6STUlPK_FKyF-mD90Ex0MJfe7mCIffg1sOaaPime85R2s3q4q5e5Q6dJiaSuD84WQMaxtyG8Vt5xGP0AcelZ-it3I-DAUxx_i6J0fbmxOsfQjHooMXCfZAFa0Ss0NGWHeiJfJWHvXEV5xL

Although CEO does matter, I would consider this upward move more as psychological expectation. Psychology matters a lot in stock market š¤Æ, and market moves might seem to lack fundamental background sometimes. I have bought some SBUX shares on 74$ average price and was considering if I should sell the position in gaining +23% short term profits. However, I decided to stick with my initial "buy and hold" plan and kept SBUX position intact in my long term dividend portfolio. I always try to do my best to keep psychology aside and base my selling decisions according to the reason I bought the stock for š

$BABA
One website that is really helpful in understanding financials quickly is "QuickFS.net"... here's a snapshot of $BABA's Return on Invested Capital. You can see the trend really has been deteriorating over time, which isn't necessarily indicative of bad things, but ROIC is a key indicator of a wide economic moat. So if you see it falling consistently over time, that's not a good sign... @Povilas Daugela https://quickfs.net/

Great site, thanks for recommendation! I widely use finchat.io for evaluation of stock metrics. They have one of the largest international stock data base and decent stock screener. Post covid years were rough for a bunch of Chinese top market cap companies and they failed to catch up enormous S&P500 tech driven growth. But this does not change the fact that China is 1-2 biggest economy in the world and is projected to grow in faster pace compared to US in the next decades. My current Chinese stock positions are designed to hold long term. Looking forward how the emerging stock market situation will look like in the next decade compared to S&P500.

@Nathan Winklepleck Well, maybe Iām too old-fashioned regarding this matter š, but Iām glad you have family values that are even more important than investing.

@Nathan Winklepleck I have several Chinese stocks, including Petrochina and Baidu in my portfolio. Petrochina has already gave me some decent gains, and I expect international tech companies to follow current US tech hype in the future. However, I agree, that it's difficult to understand Chinese companies by using western capitalist world common sense :) Maybe just I dig less deeply into stock fundamentals than you do in this case š«£
