How To Buy Stocks Nobody Wants - Without Blowing Up Your Portfolio
Durable edge is willingness to hold unloved, high-quality businesses - excess return comes from unique info, reframed misreads, or holding what others cannot Behavioral constraints matter - losses feel ~2x gains (Kahneman/Tversky) and myopic loss aversion makes frequent checking costly, accumulate over quarters not days Diagnose weakness before acting - distinguish cyclical, secular decline, or idiosyncratic problems, then apply a tailored response rather than relying on courage Position sizing and execution are risk controls - scale in over quarters, size to survive being early, and set predefined re-eval triggers to limit ruin risk Practical proof points - author down ~30% on QXO, while UNP was bought through a 3+ year sideways cycle and later rewarded, illustrating timing risk and payoff
The Investing Lesson That Changed Everything For Me
Kirby coffee-can case - $5,000 initial buys (≈$16k today) left untouched produced one Haloid stake worth >$800,000 in Xerox, beating the professional portfolio and highlighting value of not trading winners away Bessembinder (1926-2016) on ~26,000 U.S. stocks - majority underperformed 1-month T-bills, 4% of firms generated all net wealth above T-bills, and ~90 firms (0.3%) created over half of market wealth Phelps and Mayer on 100-baggers - hundreds of 100x winners existed, the average 100-bagger took ~26 years, so premature selling of winners forfeits the disproportionate long-term compounding Behavioral evidence - Barber and Odean show most-active retail traders underperformed by >6% annually and sold stocks later seen outperforming replacements, supporting pre-commitment tools like a never-sell list Practical application - author holds winners despite valuation (GE +50% last year, forward EPS multiple >40x); recommended actions: set never-sell core positions, size for volatility, add on weakness, accept some losers
My Full Aerospace & Defense Ranking: 6 Giants For Every Portfolio
FY2027 request ~ $1.5 trillion - $1.15T base plus $350B reconciliation, a 44% YoY increase, pushing defense spending toward 5% of GDP and creating durable, program-specific demand tailwinds Primary demand drivers are missile defense, munitions replenishment, nuclear modernization, sixth-generation air programs and a major Space Force build-out - $85B for missile defense, $17.5-17.9B Golden Dome in FY27 TOLL+M framework scores Tangible assets, Oligopoly (monopsony risk), Low incremental capital intensity, Long-duration cash flows and Macro alignment - monopsony means sole-source primes often lack true pricing power Aftermarket, proprietary suppliers win the pricing battle - TDG and GE lead for high-margin, freely priced aftermarket cash flows, while BA, LMT, and NOC carry negative-quality, fixed-price development backlog Top actionable positioning is supplier- and aftermarket-focused - RTX, TDG, and GE rank top three on the scorecard.
GE Aerospace: The Annuity in the Sky
Installed base of ~80,000 GE/CFM engines underpins a multi-decade aftermarket annuity - each engine yields 25-30 years of shop visits, parts and overhauls; Q1 engine deliveries +43% accelerates that revenue stream Q1 highlights: total revenue $12.4B (+25%), adjusted revenue $11.6B (+29%), operating profit $2.5B (+18%), adj EPS $1.86 (+25%, beat $1.60), FCF $1.7B (+14%), orders +87%, backlog $211.3B Operating margin compressed 200 bps to 21.8% after shipping 214 additional commercial engines - equipment sales dilute margins now but each unit initiates a 25-year services contract and future aftermarket cash flow Balance sheet and returns: $2.21B buybacks in Q1 vs $15B authorization, management pledges 100% available FCF return over 3 years, buyback yield ~2.2%, dividend 0.55%, five-year DPS growth 48.5% Valuation and risk - trading at ~37-38x forward EPS, P/FCF ~39, EV/EBITDA ~25; current $297.15 sits below Strong Buy - key risks: multiple sensitivity, near-term estimate softness, supply and airframer concentration
My Portfolio Review: High Conviction, Low Yield, Massive Upside
I run a high-conviction, concentrated portfolio of 15 stocks built around wide-moat compounders and long-term capital appreciation over current income. The portfolio excels in quality, inflation resilience, and growth, but comes with elevated volatility due to sector concentration and cyclical exposure. Core themes include Permian landowners, logistics leaders, aerospace/defense, and “tollbooth” monopolies with strong pricing power and secular tailwinds. Going forward, I aim to improve diversification and income without selling core positions, strengthening long-term compounding while managing risk.
