Replying to @TSOH_Investing
@TSOH_Investing is a great guy with a great story, please read and listen to whatever he does!
@TSOH_Investing, is the author of Buffett and Munger Unscripted, a topic-by-topic organization of three decades of Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meetings, and he writes TSOH Investment Research, where he publishes his portfolio and discloses every change before he makes it. He spent roughly twenty years investing, most recently at a firm managing over a billion dollars, before going independent in 2021. Alex explains how the Ted Williams "fat pitch" idea shapes a portfolio of ten to fifteen names where the largest positions run north of 10%, and why he makes only a handful of changes a year. He walks through Microsoft and Dollar Tree as investments that worked, and Comcast and Disney as theses he held too long, including what he missed on fixed wireless taking share from cable broadband. He also describes writing to Warren Buffett for permission before starting the book, what three decades of meetings revealed about how Buffett and Munger weighted capital allocation, and why he thinks their 2000 warning about the internet making American business less profitable has aged well.

I'm told the Angels sold for a major league record price, more than the $3.9 billion sale price for the Padres.

Got on the phone with IR. I'm not sure that we'll see a follow-up transcript from Airbnb anytime soon, but I hope that changes over time. Ultimately, I think this is a straightforward issue: if management or IR speaks to a select group of analysts and investors, the default should be to disseminate that information to all analysts and investors. This (loosely) reminds me of what Warren Buffett used to say about the expensing of stock options in the late 1990s, when just two of the companies in the S&P 500 chose to implement the methodology FASB considered preferable. "Everybody else is doing it" doesn't tell you whether a decision is right or wrong. Companies like Meta and Walmart deserve credit for being on the right side of this issue; one day, I hope that companies like Airbnb will join them.
Two weeks later - and no reply here or on an email sent to IR. There's a simple solution to the real issue: follow the lead of companies like Meta, Walmart, etc., and publish the buyside follow-up call transcript. Hopefully @bchesky can get someone at IR to resolve this.

"Netflix executives, who for years have blanched at the idea of collaborating with direct competitors, suddenly appear open to it. In June, the company integrated a French broadcaster onto its platform, its first such move. And Netflix has had recent discussions about making other streaming services available as well, including Peacock and Fox One, according to three people familiar with the discussions." $NFLX
