“The impact of the internet, particularly the rise of the network platforms like Facebook and Google and so forth, posed as big a challenge to our societies because of their impact on the public sphere as the printing press when it began to spread through Europe in the late 15th century\u2026the printing press was the vector of the spread of religious conflict all over Europe and indeed beyond Europe to the new world.

\u201cGQG Partners\u2019 is not one of value nor growth, we\u2019re simply focused on compounding and teasing out a process that works. Having said that, we do believe a company needs to be growing in order to be worth the work as we believe avoiding value traps is critical to long term returns. But we also think that areas of the market, particularly in the high growth camp, those that have directly benefited from the current virtual revolution or those that are perceived as \u201crevolutionizing the planet\u201d in some other way have gotten a bit ahead of themselves.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cI\u2019d rather be the US in this situation than anybody else…I think ultimately the US has more room for manoeuvre than anybody else and I think the US can sustain a debt to GDP ratio of 200% relatively comfortably – although the lesson from British history is that after a certain point that constrains you. Britain\u2019s problem in the 20th century was that the debt burden after 1918 was such that it was really hard to maintain British Imperial defence at the levels that would have been necessary to deter Germany. The American problem will be that the defence budget will get squeezed because the interest payments will eat such a large chunk of the Federal budget. That\u2019s going to be the weakness that ultimately gets exposed by the Chinese challenge.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cConsumers at all income levels flock to these stores, pawing through racks in search of marked-down treasure…When the economy is poor, a glut of unsold merchandise from department stores and brands ends up in off-pricers’ supply chains. More recently, e-commerce growth, with its surge in returns, has padded and diversified off-price assortments…TJX (whose major banners are Marshalls and T.J. Maxx) runs 3,309 in the U.S. alone. Ross Stores has opened 100 new stores annually lately (scaling back somewhat this year) and now runs 1,869. Burlington operates 739. Nordstrom runs comparatively few at 248 off-price Rack stores, but that’s more than twice as many as its full-line fleet (which it is shrinking).”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cApple is crazy, right? The Mac just had its best year of sales ever, and Cupertino is hitting the platform with a shock like it hasn\u2019t had in nearly 15 years\u2014back in a time when the Mac was not having such a good year. Apple is beginning the process of replacing industry-standard Intel chips with its own, custom-designed silicon…The M1 is amazingly fast. More importantly, it’s a compatibility slam dunk.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

BENEDICT EVANS: ARE YOU A SEAL?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cThere is a theory that when a shark bites a surfer, this is because they look like a seal, especially from 50 feet underwater…What does it mean to look like a \u2018seal\u2019, in this analogy, or indeed to be one? Well, a trillion dollar company with tens of thousands of engineers runs lots of projects and experiments, and there are lots of things that theoretically they could do, and that they might explore. But you have to ask not \u2018would it be a problem for me if they got into my industry?\u2019 but rather \u2018would it make any sense for them to get into my industry?\u2019 How do you tell if it would make sense for them? I\u2019d suggest a few overlapping questions.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
