Yet again I am simply saying #GatherRound is a must go and should never be moved from Adelaide.

And with the final siren for the 2024 AFL Gather Round - I want to say thank you. To everyone who worked behind the scenes to make Gather Round the success it was - thank you.

Any city wanting to take Gather Round has a genuine fight on their hands to keep it away from South Australia because they will not be able to deliver the incredible success of year 1 and 2. That’s a fact. #saparli #AFL #Adelaide

SALE - $pdd After buying a decent chunk a month or two ago (posted here), have enjoyed a 20% run-up in PDD (owner of Temu). I find it a good practice to buy to the top of your comfortable limit, with the intention of selling a small stake at the 20% profit mark. Have sold 23% of my $pdd stake tonight at $113.60. Very happy to keep holding the rest.

UPCOMING BUY - BYD BYD is another conviction call I will jump into on Monday. Electric vehicle sales are exploding in China and worldwide for BYD, to the point where it is expected to shortly overtake Tesla as the leading EV company in the world (by units). Despite this, the stock price is lower than it was in January 2021. Also - it’s unfriendly to the retail investor, only available OTC in the US, or a minimum ~15K usd lot on the Hang Seng Exchange. Just a few reasons I will be diving in. And of course Warren Buffett likes it! $tsla $byd $brk #china

RECENT BUY - $pdd Volatile time for markets. That aside my most recent pickup is PinDuoDuo - owner of the Temu app. I remember teaching on the Gold Coast in the back half of 2018 and teenagers were talking non-stop about Afterpay $apt.ax 🧵

(2/3) I looked closely at the time and didn’t buy. Missed a 5-10x pop over the next 24 months. Temu has felt similar the last few months and is a conviction call. The number of times I’ve overheard people of all ages talking about it suggests explosive growth is happening.

(3/3) time will tell. Just struck by the similarities at street level. Interested to see effect on $baba which I also hold, amid the general shakiness of the China market.
