No one wants to hang out with you two? C'mon. I hang out on your channel and discord multiple times a week. You two should have an in person boot camp. The value you both bring is AMAZING.

[@shannonoliver7992]

I second this comment. I'd pay for a round of Double IPAs with you two!

Maybe we'll do a Tony Robbins style thing one day! 😂

I want to apply for a job and work with him as a team. They are incredible in simplifying the analysis. It can only be invaluable to work along side such smart people. Wish me Luck.. :)

ABNB is range bound right now, but they seem like a globally scalable business with a strong brand name. I own them. My buddy used ABNB in Bali. That is just an amazing business where it is usable almost anywhere and on a global scale. They have to maintain their standards and manage costs, make money.

[@TheChinaPlay]

ABNB is one of my largest positions. I feel comfortable holding this one for a very, very long time, and perhaps pass on to my kids. My family operates an AirBNB in Idaho which does really well, but there is a lot of competition. The platform does a good job of providing algos to help optimize revenue. I'm traveling with family next week, we will stay at an AirBnB for part of the trip and a hotel for another part. I think they both have their pros and cons. I find with my own behavior if I'm very familiar with the place im going and its residential i prefer an AirBnB, if I need to be centrally/commercially located, hotel works better. Obviously that exactly how houses and hotels are placed. And I'd have coffee with you guys but maybe talking about chips blows people's minds too much for a coffee convo. I suggest the weather or sports as topics before you go head first into your industry flow diagram of the chip sector. Just a thought.

I've invested in ABNB for 2 years and sold out of it recently. I see the bull case, but think the regulatory environment will get in the way of future growth. ABNB is already a $94B stock and carries a high valuation. The 20 PE is fake, It's due to massive tax write offs of Covid losses. I'm just curious why you put so much faith in the company to make it your largest holding?

[@TheChinaPlay]

@@BCFC954 for context, it's about 10% of my discretionary portfolio, which is 4% of my total portfolio (estimate). I know the business as a user and operator, the FCF and continued growth are the biggest reasons im willing to ride this one out for the long term.

[@loganlasvegas]

Long time holder, Love the low capex biz model, but Chesky selling $16M after15% drop from recent highs doesn’t look great.

[@bigmountain19]

Booking on vrbo is like choosing tidal over Spotify. I think they got the brand. The largest risk I see is if state and local governments start shutting them down due to pressure of housing affordability. In Canada where I reside it’s starting to happen. Regardless the stock looks fairly appealing right now

[@msubash26]

Any recent updates on LSCC and the recent exit by CEO & dumping in value?

[@benlachmann4897]

Free cash flow is so impressive because of big stock based comp. If normalized for this, the stock looks much less cheap. Also buybacks seem to be intended to offset dilution from SBC. Great business but not that cheap, imho.

[@shannonoliver7992]

Awesome analysis, as usual. I also had a poor experience with Airbnb in Stockholm but a good experience in Atlanta, so it was a bit of a hit-and-miss for me. I don't think this is the right stock for me, as I'm still building out my chip stock and cyber security portfolios. Though I'm glad you're covering it, I'm keen to see how it plays out. Thanks!!

[@chipstockinvestor]

The power to say no and pass is powerful! Stay focused on where you see the best opportunity, Shannon. Appreciate the comment!

[@Christhecarpenter345]

I'd hang out with Casey ANY day of the week!

[@tucoramirez9557]

Knowing it contributes to the housing shortages in many many cities, I can't hold it in good conscience.

[@rshah74]

What should be the ideal price to pay for ABNB?

[@johnhiz6239]

160

[@wm6549]

Please consider doing a video on Atlassian (TEAM).

[@matjose228]

Yes that would be great

[@johnhiz6239]

Negative trend, need to get back over 160 before investable.
