Key to our investments is a high degree of shared ownership with notable inside or substantial shareholders.

These shareholders have the ultimate incentive to act in our best interest.

Hurdle Rate held a short call on state of mind given recent market turbulence.

Due to greater than expected volume in our mailing list, I have decided to move our mailing list back to Substack.

Here I will update subscribers of our performance, letters, and blog posts about specific companies or process.

Below is our tear sheet for February 2025

Subscribers to the Hurdle Rate Unit Trust mailing list just received a new investment pitch. For now this has also been posted on the Hurdle Rate blog, but future ad-hoc pitches will only be available if you are subscribed to the list below.

As I write this, the S&P500 is edging on the verge of a "correction" (a 10% decline in the index) and the Nasdaq has already passed into it.

How would an exclusive focus on publicly listed investments look like for Constellation Software?

A proxy for me is his sons' investment vehicle, Pinetree Capital.

Here are some quotes about divestments they have made in the past:

I have been re-reading the Constellation Software material including the letters, but also their press releases and transcripts.

This response to a question about public investments is quite interesting

"If you feel the need to pitch a stock you probably don't understand it well enough"

"Stocks don't move because you are new to the business, they move because there is incremental knowledge, the best pitches take that into account"

I really enjoyed this podcast from the gentlemen at the Yet Another Value Podcast.

At Hurdle Rate it is important that we differentiate the forest from the trees and focus on the performance of the team, rather than play hero and swing for the fences.
