Mayfair Platinum already stank - the borrowed name and the 4-page ads in the AFR. But Dominic McCormick has done the punters a real favour here unpacking it for @LivewireMarkets. Read it before you consider investing. If it looks to good to be true.... livewiremarkets.com/wires/ip…

1) High valuations are arguably more dangerous to founders and employees than investors. No room for error. If Magic Leap – an impressive company - had not raised at such a high valuation, it would be in a much better position today. theverge.com/2019/12/6/20998…

I saw a guy building a portfolio today. No cultstocks. No $TSLA, $FANG, $SHOP. No crypto or gold. He just sat there. Researching and buying ignored value stocks with growing revenue, trading at reasonable valuations. Like a psychopath.

Good chart from Macquarie highlighting that higher tax payments - due in large part to bracket creep - have more than offset lower interest payments for Aust households in recent years. #ausecon

Low rates feel like a free kick for highly indebted borrowers. If the world turns Japanese, they are going to learn a very painful lesson foragerfunds.com/news/beware…

Passive funds are overweight US equities and large-cap growth, largely due to the massive popularity of the S&P 500 index. Coincidentally, these are the most expensive stocks. mailchi.mp/verdadcap/glamoro…

Neumann: "[WeWork's] valuation and size today are much more based on our energy and spirituality than it is on a multiple of revenue". Forget revenue multiples folks. It's all about spirituality multiples now.
