The last year has delivered great results to many Portfolios but Market conditions are always changing and it's important to ensure the Process and Portfolio are built to withstand whatever the Market throws at it in the short-term and sustain & succeed for the long-term.

1/ The SPAC I’ve been tracking is $SAII, merging with Otonomo.

It’s a marketplace that enables auto manufacturers to monetize their connected car data that it aggregates and standardizes using its data platform. It projects revenue to grow from $3M in 2021 to $574M by 2025.

2/ Platform:

Otonomo is standardizing data using its patent-pending technology from its 16 OEM partners including Ford, GM, and BMW who provide data on 40M connected cars (4.3B data points daily), to make it easily usable by consumers and developers who can access it via API.

3/ Similar to other aggregators like $ROKU or $TTD, one of their biggest advantages is their neutrality. Many mobility services can’t operate well without data from multiple OEMs but individual OEMs lack the incentive to share their data with competitors.

4/ Otonomo is collecting over 150 data parameters per vehicle such as engine status, temperature, speed, location, fuel or battery levels, or seatbelt status. This is then normalized across OEMs and car models, anonymized, cleansed, and enriched through AI/ML.

5/ There are hundreds of use cases that range from helping drivers to find parking to helping rental companies monitor their fleets in real-time or insurance companies offer usage-based insurance and better claims processing. Otonomo charges usage-based fees based on use-case.

Market PE at 40 and yet the market is not falling, why? Getting asked this question multiple times. Here's a thread covering ‘very basic’ premier on valuation for my retail investor friends.

Do hit the ‘re-tweet’ and help us educate more investors (1/n)

For us to be able to comprehend the situation, we need to understand 4 very basic valuation matrixes
(1) Trailing EPS
(2) Forward EPS
(3) Trailing PE
(4) Forward PE

Formula

EPS = Profit After Tax / Number of outstanding Shares
PE = Market Price / EPS (2/n)

So what's a trailing EPS?

So in March 2020, RIL generated a Profit after tax (PAT) of 39,354 cr. The number of outstanding shares of RIL is some 676.21 cr. which means the 39,354 cr of PAT belongs to the 676.21 cr. shareholders, right? (3/n)

That also means that per share, RIL earned Rs. 58.20 (39,354/676.21). This 58.20 is called the trailing (TTM) EPS. Trailing means past, already done. (4/n)

So RIL earns 58.20 rupees per share but you pay 58.20 * 33.16 = 1930, 33.16 times more to buy 1 share from the market, that 33.16 is called the Price/Earnings (PE) ratio. This is again trailing as 58.20 EPS is trailing. (5/n)
