MI380: Hidden Compounders: The Best Stocks Hiding In Plain Sight w/ Shawn O’Malley

  • Summary

  • In today’s episode, Shawn O’Malley (@Shawn_OMalley_) discusses the concept of hidden compounders, where some of the most boring businesses can make the best long-term investments. Compared to well-known compounders like Apple and Amazon, which have well-known track records in compounding returns for investors, there are loads of lesser-known companies with less obvious competitive advantages that operate in less exciting industries with equally impressive track records in recent years. You’ll learn what it means to be a hidden compounder, why many hidden compounders have invisible moats, what to look for in finding hidden compounders, what makes companies like Old Dominion and Teqnion so successful, why intangible assets can provide more enduring advantages than physical assets, why Peter Lynch loves boring businesses, plus so much more!
