As always, this is 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: general information amy and you should seek independent device before 9 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: making investment decisions. William lou is a senior investment analyst 10 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: at where Global. William, welcome back to Fear and Greed. 11 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,160 Speaker 2: Thanks Sean. Great to be here. 12 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: We have about four minutes. I know there are six stocks. 13 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: Let's jump into it. Trade Web that's trying to be quick. 14 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 2: The trade Web, they're better leading platform for fixed income, 15 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: particularly US treasuries. They're a market leader in the space. 16 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: They have a dominant position, particularly in US treasury. So 17 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: we think the electronification of the fixed income market is 18 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 2: a secular trend and there's no reason why trading should 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 2: move electronics. So most of the trades are done through 20 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 2: voice right now. We see with other asset classes as 21 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 2: they move towards electronic trading get better liquidity, better price transparency, 22 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: better workflows. So we think it's inevitable that fixed income 23 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 2: trade will move electronic tradeer being a dumbinant player. They're 24 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 2: doing extremely well in US treasuries, and they started to 25 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: get a really strong handle in US corporate credit as well. 26 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: Okay, Number two market access a double xit, yeses isn't 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: it's an unusual spelling. 28 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 2: Yes, it's actually quite so. Market access and trader to 29 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: fit into a similar bucket. They both benefit from under 30 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 2: electronification of fixed income markets trade Web, which I mentioned earlier. 31 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: It's stronger in US treasuries. Market Access has a stronger 32 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: foothold in corporate debt, both high grade and investment grade 33 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 2: and high yields. So again it's a similar thematic with 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: the long term secular driver of moving to electronic trading. 35 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 2: As I said earlier, better price transparency, better workflows, better liquidity, 36 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 2: and we can see that the unit economics typicalarly flow 37 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: to the two dominant platforms, and where we're very convicted 38 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 2: that there's there's a great long term opportunity for both 39 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 2: tradeor and market access. 40 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: Okay, we'll move out of the training space. 41 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 2: SAP SAP. It's one we've held in the fund for 42 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: a long time and where we're super convicted on and 43 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 2: so we think it's a big beneficiary of AI. We've 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: seen the AI beneficiaries in the infrastructure layer, so we 45 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: talked about Nvidia and the hyperscalers, so clearly they're seeing 46 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 2: the greatest amount investment dollars right now. We think for 47 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: the productivity and e phishing gains of AI, a lot 48 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: of that will actually move to the software application layer, 49 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 2: and we think SAP is going to really benefit from that. 50 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: So companies are their customers are realizing the most valuable 51 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 2: data in their organizations, it's on the SAP system. So 52 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 2: they can match the most valuable data for a company 53 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 2: with a LED language model and really generate some really 54 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 2: unique insights for business ar. On top of that, they're 55 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: transitioning the business model from licensed to recurrent cloud based revenues, 56 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: and we see a really good visibility for or earning 57 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 2: thread the head. 58 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: Okay, we are racing through them Adobe one that we 59 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: all know of, but why do you like Adobe? 60 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 2: A similar vein? Again, we think it's a benefictary of 61 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 2: AI in the software application layer. We think they have 62 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: the leading enterprise software provider for creative professionals and sophisticated marketers. 63 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: We see Adobe as advantage given their superior product in 64 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 2: the sense of design tools, capabilities, distribution, and its library 65 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: of content. And we're encouragingly seeing lead indicators ar proliferation 66 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: with significant engagement in its AI tools, generation capabilities, and 67 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: the use of its tools such as Jenai Studio and Fireflight. 68 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 2: We expect positive catalysts in FY twenty five as they 69 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: monetize these capabilities and announce you pricing strategies. 70 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: Okay, we're changing sectories here. Expedia, We've all used that one. 71 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: Why do you like Expedia? 72 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 2: Yes, so Expedia, as we are probably know, it's online 73 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 2: travel agency based in the US. That's really three core brands, 74 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: which is brand Expeedi, Verbo, which is its alternative accommodation business, 75 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 2: and Hotels dot Com. So the reason we like Expedia 76 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: is that we think that cossumers continue to prioritize experiences. 77 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: While the cossumer sector has been quite volatile, cossumes are 78 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: clearly being more discerning. It is clear travel and entertainment 79 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 2: continue to be really resilient categories. The company also under 80 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: took a difficult decision to re platform. It's entire technology 81 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: stuck into a single platform, so they're coming out the 82 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: other side of that now. Better ploy is to drive 83 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: more efficient operations, more efficient advertising and marketing, driving customer 84 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: loyalty across as different brands. We've been really impressed with 85 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 2: the CEO, Arian Gooro. She previously led the B to 86 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: B business fork Expedia, which has been an exceptional performer 87 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: and it's still really undappreciated by market. So it's training 88 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: at thirteen times PE for double digit EPs growth and 89 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 2: we think that's really attractive. 90 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: Okay. The final one, William, it's a German ticketing and 91 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: live entertainment company c TS Venum. 92 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 2: Yes, in a similar vein to Expedia. CTS Venum is 93 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: the dominant ticketing platform in Europe and the company is 94 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 2: based in Germany. So again they benefit from consumers prioritizing 95 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 2: experiences over goods and we can see a really good 96 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: visibility into the twenty twenty five pipeline. The events pipeline 97 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: remains strong and expected to be another strong year food 98 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 2: industry and we expect the industry to grow high single 99 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 2: digits in the coming years. We continue to see some 100 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: of the long term secular growth drivers intact as well, 101 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: including the online mobile migration of ticket sales, increased artists 102 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: tune because they're replacing some of the declining recorded music sales, 103 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: and more differentiated ticket pricing models, which has become a 104 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 2: bit more dynamic. So it's tent twenty four times. It's 105 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: a market leader in Europe. It's stuff that we really like. 106 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: Wow, plenty to think about. William, thank you for your time. 107 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: Thanks Sean. 108 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: That was William Louis and your investment analyst at WAYM Global. 109 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: Remember to get your own independent advice before making investment decisions. 110 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: This is for and Greed Summer Investing series brought to 111 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: you by v Van to automates compliance for frameworks like 112 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: ISO twenty seven one two CPS two three four in 113 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: essentially eight saving time and money while building trust.
