$FIS, $FISV, $GPN Thread

Terrific write up of $FIS, $FISV, $GPN pro forma for recent mergers by Tien-tsin Huang of JPM, arguably best payments analyst on the Street. Few observations:
1) Business mix favors GPN, growth least reliant on synergies. FIS most diversified, FISV most scale/defensive pic.twitter.com/BIxhNFEhK0

Thread about small growing companies $POLA, $EMGC, $ASPS, $BTU, $SD, $STNG, $LPG, $SHIP

I’m amazed at how many small growing profitable companies trade for less than working capital or for less than 5x FCF. Its one of the strangest pricing environments I can remember. also amazed at how most of these keep declining for the past 2 years as small cap gets liquidated https://t.co/Nxim6jgfex

$V or $MA - read the whole discussion

Can’t go wrong with either as other have commented, all points already mentioned valid. Ultimately difference boils down to 1) growth vs resiliency and 2) degree of willingness to disrupt vs. preserve the status quo. Some of it is structural, some is due to strategic decisions

$W reported earnings this morning. More of the same. Stock down 17% today and it is not surprising to see why, in light of their poor fundamental performance.

$QUAD Thread

$QUAD - The reason they are "selling" the $200 mm segment is that it lost -$15 mm of EBITDA in H1-19... by moving this loss to discontinued operations, it buys them room on their covenants. That's how bad the situation is, they have to manufacture EBITDA to maintain compliance...

$MCO Moody's Thread

1) $MCO @ Barclays Global Financial Services Conference with Mark Kaye – CFO

"we don't expect more issuance in the 2H, but do expect a higher % growth given how Q4 last year emerged. Over the long-term, GDP/disintermediation remain 2 of the primary drivers of issuance activity"

$Z, $ZG Zillow Thread

“There’s over 100 million active users on Zillow and Trulia every month but only six million people buy and sell houses every year.”

Clearly there’s room for iBuyers to remove friction from home selling process. https://t.co/7E7xfnPuws pic.twitter.com/dC9uYhVD7G

$NTNX Nutanix Thread

The article for Google to buy Nutanix makes sense from the angle that Google as a company has been more open to broader ecosystems. $ntnx

$FISV Fiserv Thread

$FISV recently filed docs in Bessemer vs Fiserv lawsuit detail a litany of product and organizational failures at Fiserv. Their core software offering is a hackers dream, full of holes that go unrepaired. It is also their own customers nightmare. Bessemer pulled the plug on $FISV pic.twitter.com/3stg38qHSj

What's your single largest holding? Read comments for ideas.

It's uncomfortable and taboo for many to talk about their personal investments (unless of course they had a big winner!)

Surprisingly, people are often candid with this question:

"What's your single largest holding"?

Y'all know mine...what's yours?https://t.co/uW7e7C6OsF

Interesting Global Warming Thread

Tweetstorm about Global Warming, or alternatively Human Induced Carbon Cycle Imbalance.

It is a correctable human problem with a realistic human solution that should be pursued, discussed, and most importantly heavy funded.
