- speeda does $41m in sales - they bought Quartz a few years ago. Dumb move, I think - Quartz does $30m/year. Huge losses though. - rest of company is profitable with good margins given the growth - other products they have do $8m/year

why I like them: - they have multiple business units and product lines - super capital efficient - people seem to love their products

Do you have any favorite resources for learning more about media companies? I wish Trends covered it more haha. Just found out both Sports Illustrated and FaZe clan each started their own studios to expand into video. Fascinating stuff.

We're expanding to a variety of niches. I find it cuz I'm a rat and sift through shit dozens of hours a day. I consume massive amounts of content including historical stuff like old newspapers.

Under the radar companies! More than 80% of companies in this country are not publicly known but have a very huge success! A good number of startups are also doing well
