its kinda fun that in a time when there is just an overwhelming amount and availability of good literature about valuations-based investing (mckinsey, mauboussin, damodaran, VIC, the old classics, etc) we get the “meme stonks” thing where shares might as well be beanie babies

i mean, probably not if you do a lot of long/short based on financial statement analysis; then you probably think its annoying. but, like, as an uninvolved observer, i love watching people make and lose fortunes based on massive social activity orthogonal to established models.

It’s weird to think that there’s an optimum amount of inefficiency for valuations-based long/short traders. To little and there are no opportunities, but too much and prices just move around randomly with no guarantee they will ever get to fair value in a reasonable timeframe.

Shorting a company trading at 2x fair is easy if you know it won’t ever go to more than 3x. But you can’t short a company trading at 10x fair if it might easily go to 200x.
