@grahamcweaver: The science of separating a good business from a bad one comes down to 3 words-barriers to entry. Any good business will be attacked by competition. They'll poach your customers, undercut your prices, and erode your margins...unless you have a moat. There are only 5 true barriers to entry: 1. Limited supply: Examples-the only bridge, port, or Birkin bag in town. 2. Network effects: Examples-Uber, Visa, Airbnb get more valuable as they grow. 3. Intellectual property: Includes patents, secret formulas, proprietary tech. 4. Switching costs: Example-enterprise software nobody wants the headache of leaving. 5. Economies of scale: Example-Costco sells at retail cheaper than competitors buy at wholesale. Stop chasing meme stocks and Reddit trends. Real wealth is built in durable businesses with real moats.
