$PTON Thread

One more $PTON: interesting a company that's been around for ~7 years is projecting CLTV of ~7.5 years

Totally possible that's right! But seems kind of aggressive as most of their subs are new; will be interesting how churn looks in ~3 years as bike depreciates / sub base ages pic.twitter.com/Pb91sbKHzv

How a credit card works

Confession: I'm a nerd. Spent the whole morning learning about how a credit card works. Surprisingly, it's incredibly complicated. Here's what I've learned.

$NFLX and $SPOT Thread

If I ran $NFLX, I'd partner up with $SPOT.
Make a discounted bundle for both.
Would help them deter off Amazon & Apple. Doesn't attack respective turfs.

Soft-Merging subscriber bases will increase stickiness of both and reaccelerate sub growth. Long-term win.

$SDC Smile Direct Club and $ALGN Align Tech. discussion

Hard to tell what the best play is. I bet $algn pricing has to come way down, but not sure $sdc is a great business if they're the one commositizing the industry. Big TAM, but the economics of going after it are getting worse and worse.

$NTNX Nutanix Thread

Nutanix $NTNX up 27% today is a confirmation that the bar was set too low.

Investors should focus on whether this biz can transition from selling core HCI software to subscriptions.

$KHC Kraft Heinz thoughtful thread

1/ When Kraft first came up with the concept of Pizza Lunchables (those cold trays with customizable sauces & toppings), it tested terribly with focus groups of mothers. Moms everywhere said "This is an awful idea, a really awful idea." The concept got the worst score in history.

$PTON Peloton InteractiveThread

1/ $PTON Peloton subscriber churn looks to me to be around 20-30% per year. But they reported churn of 0.7%!!
Math with me here.. the reported churn is a 'monthly' churn, calculated as net cancels in the period, divided by 3 months. So 0.7% = 2.1% per quarter, or around 8.4%/yr.

Thread about Disney $DIS + Sony $SNE breakup over #SpiderMan

Asked a lot about the Disney/Marvel + Sony breakup over ‘#SpiderMan’. There are five key drivers here.

#1: 2018’s ‘Venom’. Poorly received (29% RT, B+ CinemaScore, 6.7 IMDb), but huge success. 6th most profitable in 2018. Gives Sony belief it doesn’t need Disney
