I 43 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 4: actually don't know what it is. 44 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: It is actually financial certainly is. 45 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 4: But they're actually something you might come across more than 46 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 4: you think, and understanding them can give you a big 47 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 4: investing advantage.

I feel like so 62 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 4: many of these jargon y terms just make us feel overwhelmed, 63 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 4: and then when you break them. 64 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 2: Down, you're like, that's not that hard. The finance bros 65 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: be brown baby browing baby brow in. 66 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 4: So IPOs are actually one of the most common questions 67 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 4: we have been getting recently from our listeners. 68 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's because lots have been in the media. Yeah, 69 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: to be more like, what is that? Why is it 70 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 2: in the media? What does that mean? 71 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 4: And everyone wants to know if there are a chance 72 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 4: of getting in early on the next big thing, right 73 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: or if it's more of a gamble, And honestly, there's 74 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 4: a bit of both going on. So today, I'm going 75 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 4: to break down exactly what IPOs really mean, why companies 76 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 4: go public, and what investors need to look out for 77 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 4: when those exciting new shares. 78 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: Hit the market. Okay, okay, I think it's going to 79 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: be really fun. I mean, you're not sold yet, not yet. 80 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 4: But I actually don't know what it is, and so 81 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 4: that's I think my first question will be what actually 82 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 4: doesn't mean? 83 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 2: Like what is an IPO? 84 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: So an IPO means initial public offering, which sounds really boring, 85 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 4: but it's essentially like the company's first time on the 86 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 4: share market. It's when a private business decides, you know what, 87 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 4: we're a pretty good business and we would like to 88 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 4: sell shares to the public. And it's often to raise 89 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 4: money so that they can grow. But it's not just 90 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 4: like a money move. It changes the whole company's structure 91 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 4: and their goals because they have a whole heap of 92 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 4: other responsibilities. So like if I said, oh, Beck, I'm 93 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 4: going to sell shares in shes on the money. Instead 94 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 4: of me just being in control, I now have shareholders 95 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 4: to report to. I'm going to have like a board 96 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 4: who I have to justify my decisions to. It's not 97 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 4: a small decision by any stretch for the imagination. But 98 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 4: essentially IPO is the first time a company deboos on 99 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 4: the share market. And so that's I'm assuming just based 100 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 4: off what you've said, it's kind of their decision. So 101 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 4: why do some companies decide to IPO? Is that the 102 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 4: right my say? You can say that, yeah, Why does 103 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 4: some companies decide to list themselves on the share market? 104 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 2: Why to IPO and why to not IPO? To IPO 105 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 2: or to not IPO? That is the question, that's the question. 106 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 4: But companies often decide to go, all right, we're going 107 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 4: to list on the share market and have an IPO 108 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 4: to raise really big funds really quickly, especially if they're 109 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 4: like expanding or the company carries some debt that they 110 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 4: want to pay off. 111 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 2: But there's also, I guess the flip side. 112 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 4: When you go on the share market and when you 113 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 4: decide to list publicly, companies lose a little bit of control, 114 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 4: which is why some people are really happy to stay private. 115 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 4: And it's one of those things where you know, even 116 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 4: if my business has got absolutely massive, I like not 117 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 4: having other people tell me what to do. I don't 118 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 4: want to have to, you know, talk to shareholders and 119 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 4: justify the decisions I make inside my business, so it's 120 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 4: not for me, Like going public is a really big shift. 121 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 4: It means that the company is now accountable to shareholders 122 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 4: and has to produce finance reports and post them publicly, 123 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 4: and there's pressure to meet earning expectations, which I guess 124 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 4: can then change how they're going to internally run the 125 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: business as well, Like no longer can you just make decisions? 126 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: Right? 127 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 4: Okay, So in my head, I'm thinking a company that 128 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 4: maybe like a little small business, maybe they're getting big enough, 129 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 4: they need more money, they need expects maybe they even 130 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 4: need like publicity to some extent exactly, and then so 131 00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 4: they decide to go Yeah, and. 132 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,119 Speaker 2: I think you think She's on the money. 133 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 4: As an example of this throughout this episode is going 134 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 4: to really help, right, So, like, let's pretend that I'm 135 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 4: thinking about listing. I'm not, but let's pretend I'm thinking 136 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 4: about listing, And it's because beck I really want She's 137 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 4: on the Money to grow even bigger than it is. 138 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 4: And I want to create an app, and like I 139 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 4: want to She's on the Money app because you know one. 140 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: And we all know this already. 141 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 4: One doesn't exist in the market, but it costs hundreds 142 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 4: of thousands of dollars to create an app and keep 143 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 4: it updated, like it's not for me being completely transparent, 144 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 4: it's not feasible for me to do that on my own. 145 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: So maybe in order to. 146 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 4: Do that and actually create this app that I want 147 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 4: to that in the back of my mind, I go, 148 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,799 Speaker 4: if I create this app that She's on the Money, 149 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 4: community will like triple and we'll, you know, gain a 150 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 4: whole heap more revenue. I'm going to list, which means 151 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 4: I'm going to do what's called an IPO, which is 152 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 4: the initial public offering, and that's the first time I'm 153 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 4: issuing shares. And everyone wants to get in on a 154 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 4: good thing, Like beck I think you love shees on 155 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 4: the money, so you might go fire out Brussels sprout, 156 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 4: I love what VI's up to you. I love She's 157 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 4: on the money. I would love to get in on 158 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 4: this because I reckon her shares have been valued expert 159 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 4: it's worth more. So you go and buy a few 160 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 4: of the She's on the Money shares, and then you go, 161 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 4: when she finally does this app that I know she's 162 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 4: been talking about, my shares are going to be worth 163 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 4: so much more because I believe in the company. And 164 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 4: that's often what people want to do when they have 165 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 4: an initial public offering. They go, oh, that's the first 166 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 4: time that that company is listing, and irrespective of what 167 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 4: the company is, you might go, I really believe in 168 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 4: what they're doing, and I'm hoping that when they're listing, 169 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 4: that's like the first time price and it's not an 170 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 4: all time high price like you were assuming that. Often 171 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 4: when you get involved in an IPO, you get to 172 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 4: purchase first, but it means that you might be getting 173 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 4: a really good deal because then the market is ultimately 174 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 4: going to start seeing what you're seeing in shees on 175 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 4: the Money? 176 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 2: Does that make sense? Y? 177 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: Solutally, you and I know She's on the money and 178 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 4: it's a little bit niche like it's a finance podcast. 179 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 4: Not many people know about it, so you can see 180 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 4: the value. But if I went to Joe Blow down 181 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 4: the street and said, hey, would you buy She's on 182 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 4: the Money shares, Joe Blow might be like, I don't 183 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 4: even know who She's on the Money is, and then 184 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 4: you'd be like, oh, it's Victoria to buyne and then 185 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 4: they'd be like, I've literally never heard of this person, 186 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 4: but you should buy shares. 187 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: It's got so much potential. 188 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 4: He's going to go I don't see the value so 189 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 4: often an IPO, and I mean it can go one 190 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 4: of two ways. So an IPO often they'll release shares 191 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 4: and then over time they increase in value and you've 192 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 4: got a good deal when you got in at the start, 193 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 4: or there was a whole heap of market hype and 194 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 4: you got in at the start and then your share 195 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 4: price started to drop. So that's why we're talking about 196 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 4: it kind of being a risk at the same time 197 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 4: as being a really good opportunity if you know what. 198 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 2: You're talking about. 199 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 4: Okay, this actually makes a lot of sense. I just 200 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 4: I guess I wonder if you're about to go public, 201 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 4: or if a company's about to go public and you've 202 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 4: kind of had your r on it, where like what 203 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 4: do you actually find out? Like where is this information? 204 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 4: Can you just like google that company and then you 205 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 4: can you can there will often be a lot of 206 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 4: like PR releases and media releases. You'll also learn about 207 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 4: it from the ASEX. So the ASEX is the Australian 208 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 4: Stock Exchange and their website has a whole heap of 209 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 4: information like I'm telling you right now, if a company 210 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 4: is going to go through an IPO process, they are 211 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 4: jumping up and down and trying to let everybody know 212 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 4: about it, because everybody wants a good IPO. 213 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: Right. 214 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 4: It's kind of like a launch party. I see it 215 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 4: as a launch party, right, Like I want to have 216 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 4: a launch party for my really fancy business. If no 217 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 4: one shows up, low key embarrassing, you want to write, 218 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 4: h yes, yes, we want a Corey Worthington launch. So 219 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 4: we want everyone to want yellow sunglasses. Yeah, And we 220 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 4: want everyone to buy because that gives the rest of 221 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 4: the market confidence because if they haven't seen our company, 222 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 4: they haven't seen shees on the money, they don't know 223 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 4: what it's about. And then they see the IPO and 224 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 4: it's gone hectic. You'd be like, oh my god, maybe 225 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 4: I'm missing out on something. Because at the end of 226 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 4: the day, the share market is inherently psychological, right, Like, 227 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 4: and you and I as investors, we like seeing other. 228 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 2: People get in on a good thing and then go, oh, 229 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,959 Speaker 2: hold on, what are they doing that looks good? 230 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 4: So you want to create that sense of fomo with 231 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 4: an IPO, Like they're going to be jumping up and 232 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 4: down about it. Yeah, okay, that's good to know. Maybe 233 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 4: I'll have a browse because I assume that even if 234 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 4: you're not fully looking at one place, I don't know 235 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 4: where to start, but I could just kind of have 236 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 4: a brows and nan see what's absolutely And like your 237 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 4: favorite companies, if they're planning on launching, they will start 238 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 4: talking about it and prepping for it because you have 239 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 4: to change your entire business structure and like the way 240 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 4: you report things and the things that go on in 241 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 4: the business. It takes literally like eighteen months to prep 242 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 4: a business for launch. So they'll be probably whispers at 243 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 4: the start about it, and then once they have a 244 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 4: lot of confidence that they have a date and they're ready, 245 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 4: they'll talk about it. 246 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 2: It's kind of like a book. 247 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 4: Launch, Okay, actually sounds like it's actually a bit it's 248 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 4: a massive process. Like as I said, it can take, 249 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 4: you know, eighteen months just to prep a company to 250 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 4: go into their IPO because they're launching. And obviously, if 251 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 4: you're going to buy a share in my company, beck 252 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 4: you're going to go, well, I want to make sure 253 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 4: that you've got everything organized. I'm not going to buy 254 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: a share in your company if you're running a circus. 255 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 4: Behind the scenes, there's obviously the financial prep, there's going 256 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 4: to be audits, and then there's a really big I 257 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 4: get excited about this document. It's called a prospectus. You 258 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 4: probably don't care about it. 259 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 2: Prospectus. 260 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 4: It sounds bougie, right, but it's essentially a really big 261 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 4: document that outlines everything about the company. It has all 262 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 4: of the financials, it has all of the risks, all 263 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 4: of the goals of the launch, what they want to achieve, 264 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 4: what their company structure looks. 265 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: Like, who works for them. 266 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 4: And during this process, you can't just do it on 267 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: your own right, so they'll often hire underwriters who are 268 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 4: going to help set the share price and attract investors, 269 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 4: because if you ask me while she's on the money's work, 270 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 4: I'll be like one million dollars, one billion dollars, Like 271 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 4: I'm going to tell you. 272 00:11:58,559 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: It's worth heaps. 273 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 4: But when need to actually hire someone called an underwriter. 274 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 4: You might not have heard of the term underwriter, but 275 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 4: an underwriter assesses risk. So insurance companies usually have them, 276 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 4: and these are the people that if you go through 277 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 4: the insurance process and say, oh, the I really want 278 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 4: to get income protection, what will happen is your financial 279 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 4: advisor will apply to the insurance company, and the underwriters 280 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 4: will view your application, assess what type of risk you 281 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 4: have and then put a number on that and go, oh, well, 282 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 4: you know, Beck loves a vape, so she's probably a 283 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 4: little bit more of a risk than the average bear. 284 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 4: So we might add a little bit of a loading, 285 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 4: which is a little bit more money that you pay 286 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 4: per month to cover yourself. 287 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: So what happens in the space of shares is. 288 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 4: An underwriter will look at it, review the company and 289 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 4: give a suggestion as to what the share price should be, 290 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 4: like should it be a dollar per share? Should it 291 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 4: be five hundred dollars per share. You can't just ask 292 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 4: the company, oh, how much money did you want to 293 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 4: sell shares for? Like that's not how works. It is 294 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 4: actually a really long, really extensive process. But when it's 295 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 4: done correctly, it can really pay off. 296 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 2: Just it cost a lot of money. Oh yeah, absolutely, Like. 297 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 4: An order to just doesn't come in and says oh, yeah, 298 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 4: i'll do you solid and like we'll just do this 299 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 4: for free. 300 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 301 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 4: Like underwriters are very very educated, Like they have to 302 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,599 Speaker 4: go through so much university and to be really technical 303 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 4: They're not just looking at that prospectus document. They're looking at, 304 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 4: you know, the market. They're looking at what the economic 305 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 4: circumstances are. They're looking at, you know, the demand for 306 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 4: the product into the future. They'll do a whole like 307 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 4: swat analysis. They'll look at your strengths, your weaknesses, your opportunities, 308 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 4: and your threats. They'll look at all your competitors and 309 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 4: like try and place you. If that makes sense that 310 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 4: it's a lot.

Don't 335 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 2: say I don't do anything for you. 336 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 4: So just in case someone's listening to this and they're like, 337 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 4: this is a fool proof way to make money fast, 338 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 4: I'm assuming there's a bit more to it, is that, right? 339 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 5: Yeah? As I said before, like it could be a 340 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 5: really really good thing, or it could be a flop. 341 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: Like we've all seen launch parties where it's like, oh, 342 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: that's nice, they're finally launching, and that's terrible, Like you 343 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like it's like a launch right, 344 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 2: And I've said this literally in this episode before, So 345 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: what could happen is like so much hype, so much marketing, 346 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 2: the cover of the book so incredible. 347 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 4: And then you get the book and you're like this 348 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 4: is terribly written, Like this is. 349 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 2: Just not for me. Like finally the launch party happens, 350 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 2: you brought the book Beck, you were like this twenty 351 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: nine dollars book worth it? And you're like, I would 352 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: not pay ten dollars for this? What have I done? 353 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 2: Pictures in here? 354 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 5: No, there's no pictures, no drawings, Like what is this? 355 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 5: And there's like more than one hundred pages. Ill. 356 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 4: No, So just because the company goes public doesn't mean 357 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 4: it's gonna like skyrocket like you do your initial launch, 358 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 4: which is the IPO. But then you've got to kind 359 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 4: of sustain the business. You can't just sell shares for 360 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 4: an inflated amount and then expect the market to not 361 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 4: see through that if it's a sham, if that makes sense. 362 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 4: So in fact, some IPOs flop literally right after they're listed. 363 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 4: Like any investment, it carries risk, and we need to 364 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 4: be on top of that risk and kind of weigh 365 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 4: it up. Right. So, and this goes back to she's 366 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 4: on the money, and it's not because I think the 367 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 4: business is good. It's just a good example. You know, 368 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 4: she's on the money so deeply, right, So, like you know. 369 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 2: The team, you know how it works. 370 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 4: You have this prime position, like you're kind of in 371 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 4: the like the director's box of being like I actually 372 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 4: know their ethics. I actually know who works for them, 373 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 4: how they even edit their podcasts. I know, you know 374 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 4: in the pipeline, like you know what's gone on in 375 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five and probably twenty twenty. 376 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 2: Six, Like you've seen a bitstess plan. 377 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you're like, no, that's pretty solid, Like I'm 378 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 4: pretty bought into this, Like I know that's pretty good. 379 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 4: But not everyone has that director's seat right, And sometimes 380 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 4: companies can put out this shiny version and you might 381 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 4: feel like you've had a director's seat, but it was 382 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 4: a really curated version. Another example is kind of like 383 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 4: brand new restaurant opening night, so excited it's just opened 384 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 4: in your area. Beck Like, let's imagine pizza shop down 385 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 4: from your house. You haven't had a restaurant there ever, 386 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 4: and you're just so stoked that a restaurant is opening 387 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 4: your house, have cheap wine. You're just like, oh my god, 388 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 4: this is going to be the perfect date location for 389 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 4: Jess and I. 390 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: I love it. 391 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 4: There's long waitlists, so you're like, oh, this is popular. 392 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: Good sign love seeing a buzzing environment. 393 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 4: You're so excited, but you're not really sure yet, Like 394 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 4: what if you don't like the menu? Some opening nights, 395 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 4: there's everyone lighting up around the corner, and then the 396 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 4: night after they've given everyone food poisoning. Ah, And then 397 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 4: you went and had a really shitty time. The weight 398 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 4: stuff were really rude. You know, you were paying forty 399 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 4: eight bucks for a margarita pizza. You're like, oh, actually 400 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 4: this was all really good. When I saw them building 401 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 4: the locations, when they started marketing, I thought this is 402 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 4: going to be lit. 403 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 2: I went, I never want to go back there again. Yeah, 404 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 2: I had a crap time. 405 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 4: I'd actually prefer to just order Dominoes online and just 406 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 4: sit at home, do you know what I mean? Like 407 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 4: that is what could happen. So like some are an 408 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 4: absolute hit and some are a miss. That might mean 409 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 4: that the company has to then go back to scratch 410 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 4: and kind of go, all right, we need to have 411 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 4: a look at our business model, and maybe they like 412 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 4: drop the prices of their pizza, fire someome stuff and 413 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 4: hire some kind ones and the whole situation changes and 414 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 4: maybe then it becomes your local. But they have to 415 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 4: prove themselves. You can't just do a fancy IPO and bebougie. 416 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 2: Yes, does that make sense? 417 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 4: Totally makes sense. I imagine if you are in that situation. 418 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 4: It's hard to come back from negatives from exactly and 419 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,719 Speaker 4: if an IPO happens, like if a company has an 420 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 4: IPO and it flops, deck media love that, yeah, like 421 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:31,239 Speaker 4: they want to talk about that. 422 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 2: They want to be like, oh my god, did you. 423 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 5: See Victoria's company iPod It launched it like sixty bucks 424 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 5: a share and the next day it was ten dollars 425 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 5: a share, Like they're gonna slam that because the investment 426 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 5: news or like the investment news cycle, they love a 427 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 5: negative story or they love it. Do you want to 428 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 5: be like, oh, yes, Victoria's launch happened and she sold 429 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 5: her shares for sixty dollars per share, and look at 430 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 5: that overnight they are now it's sixty one dollars. 431 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 4: That is solid and consistent ross. We love to see it, 432 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 4: no one cares, but if it crashes, you love. Everyone 433 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 4: wants to watch juicy, Juicy juicy. We need the juice 434 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 4: and I get it. That's why I exist. I love 435 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 4: a little bit of drama, but I also need to 436 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 4: balance it out with reality. And that's why it's so 437 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 4: important to always kind of have your blinkers on when 438 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 4: you're making a decision. About investment for yourself, because you 439 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 4: need to make a decision that's right for you, not 440 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 4: what the market is saying. Really good example of that 441 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 4: bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Yeah, so everybody in the market and 442 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 4: everyone in the media was talking about how incredible bitcoin 443 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 4: was and how incredible crypto was, and it was the 444 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 4: next big thing, And people who'd never even invested on 445 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 4: the share market were going and purchasing crypto assets because 446 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 4: their friends were. They had a little bit of fomo. 447 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 4: They thought that everybody else was onto a good thing. 448 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 4: But what they were hearing was market noise. Yeah, did 449 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 4: that make the actual asset that they were purchasing more valuable? No, 450 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 4: The price was actually driven by the demand as opposed 451 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 4: to the value of the product. So wanting it more 452 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 4: meant if more people are buying it, the share price 453 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 4: goes up, and that's really exciting if you can back yourself. 454 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 4: But then the share price crashes because people go, hold on, 455 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 4: hold on, I paid eighty bucks a share for X. 456 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 4: I don't think it's worth it. Oh do you know 457 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 4: what I'll do. 458 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 2: I don't think it's worth it. 459 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 4: So I'm going to sell my share at eighty bucks 460 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 4: today because I just want to cut my losses, like 461 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,719 Speaker 4: I want my money back. And so the market starts 462 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,479 Speaker 4: to see these shares selling, and your share price starts 463 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 4: to drop because there's not as much demand for it. 464 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 4: And then you see your share price dropping and you go, 465 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 4: oh my god, like I bought in at eighty dollars too, 466 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 4: Now it's worth seventy Should I just cut my losses 467 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 4: and sell right now? And because you didn't have a 468 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 4: commitment to that product, because you didn't have a commitment 469 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 4: to that share and fully understand it, you're like, oh, 470 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 4: I just want to cut my losses, you know, whereas 471 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 4: it might be a really great opportunity, but if a 472 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 4: lot of people are selling down, you might want to 473 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 4: get on that train too. So we need to put 474 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 4: blinkers on and not look at what other people are doing, yeah, 475 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,719 Speaker 4: and look at what works for you. So I guess 476 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 4: this entire model means you need to have your head 477 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 4: screwed on properly. You can't just get excited because it's 478 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 4: an IPO and it's super shiny, and they're obviously going. 479 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 2: To get a whole heap of market press. 480 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 4: They're obviously like the Today Show wants to interview them like, 481 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 4: you know, it might be a skincare company and they've 482 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 4: just done this incredible you know, skincare range and they're 483 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 4: finally taking it public. That's good news story. So you 484 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 4: see it and you get in on the hype. But 485 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 4: I guess you need to understand that the hype is 486 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 4: just hype and you need to analyze it yourself to 487 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 4: make sure it's a good decision so that it doesn't 488 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 4: end up being a bad money loss. You know, yes, 489 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 4: So after the break, we're going to go to a 490 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 4: quick breakback because I've been talking about IPOs and I 491 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 4: need to come down a little bit. I'm going to 492 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 4: give you the inside scoop on spotting the real opportunities 493 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 4: and what's just smoking mirrors because I've told you to 494 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 4: look out for it, but how how do I see? 495 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 2: How do I see? So stick around you don't want 496 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 2: to miss this. Welcome back everyone. 497 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 4: Before the break, you promise us all the hot tips 498 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 4: for investing in IPOs. 499 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 2: So where should we start? Do you get it now? Though? 500 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 4: Like before we go, like IPOs, do they feel as 501 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 4: overwhelming as they did at the start of the episode, 502 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 4: because you're like, I don't know what an IPO and 503 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 4: I'm like, I am glad you are here. 504 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 2: Then yeah, totally. 505 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 4: And I just like when you see the abbreviation of anything, 506 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 4: it's like that is scary. 507 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 2: I don't want to know. Yeah, but it really is 508 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 2: making sense. 509 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 4: But also like it's just the first time a share 510 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 4: is available on the market. Yeah, and I think a 511 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 4: lot of people again the finance bros be browing. Investing 512 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 4: in IPOs is my passion. Okay, suit down, bru. They 513 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 4: got me, good, they got you. But like, also that's 514 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 4: why we don't like finance bros. 515 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 2: That's true. So let's go back to basics. 516 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 4: I want you to understand the business model. If it 517 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 4: comes to you know, understanding I guess whether you should 518 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 4: invest in a company's IPO or not. We really want 519 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 4: to just like strip it back and have a look 520 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 4: at the business model. How does the company make money, 521 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 4: what does it sell? 522 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 2: What does the. 523 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 4: Company actually do, whether it's in a growth industry or not. 524 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 4: I want to understand a solid business model is going 525 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 4: to have long term potential as opposed to something clearly 526 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 4: short term. And to me, that's essential before considering an 527 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 4: IPO investment. Why beck, Because I am not the type 528 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 4: of person who buys like penny stocks. I'm not the 529 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 4: type of person who is in it to get rich quick. 530 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 4: That is not my game. I'm a long term investor. 531 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 4: So if you've got a short term business model, how's 532 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 4: that going to fit into your long term portfolio? Like, 533 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 4: how are you going to hold that for ten plus years? 534 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 4: Like if you wouldn't hold a share for more than 535 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 4: ten years, Beck, you should not hold it for ten minutes. Well, 536 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 4: but like you shouldn't. You shouldn't because why are we 537 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 4: buying it? Because if you're buying it for a short 538 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 4: period of time, you are probably just buying it because 539 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 4: of market hype. You're probably buying it because you see 540 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 4: a little opportunity to get rich quick. That's not who 541 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 4: we are, that's not what we do. We are long 542 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 4: term investors because that is the safest way to invest. 543 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 4: And we know and I'm probably getting a little bit 544 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 4: off track here, but we know that if if you 545 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 4: took any thirty year period in the Australian stock market history, Beck, 546 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 4: and anyone who has invested for that period has not 547 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 4: lost money. Well invested for a shorter period like ten years. Yeah, 548 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 4: the markets go up and down, like you can sell 549 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 4: out and lose some money. But if you stretch it 550 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 4: out and go to thirty years, nobody in the Australian 551 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 4: share market has lost money over a thirty year period. 552 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 2: Woll But isn't that really cool to think? Okay? Cool? 553 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 4: If I zoom out and we always say went intown, 554 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 4: zoom ount, but zoom out and look at the bigger 555 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 4: picture and IPO is shiny. It's really exciting. I love it, 556 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 4: and I get so in aviod like I am going 557 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 4: to read that prospectus. I get it, but like I'm 558 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 4: reading it because I think and I'm hoping that I'll 559 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 4: get into a good thing at the start and be 560 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 4: able to ride the wave for a ten year plus 561 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 4: period of time. I'm not trying to ride the wave 562 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 4: for five minutes because it launched and then I'm going 563 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 4: to sell my shares. 564 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 2: That's not who I am. 565 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 4: Back to the prospectus, though, I can't talk about this enough. 566 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 4: It's going to sound really unsexy, and I don't think 567 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 4: I sold you on it before I told you could 568 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 4: watch Netflix. But it's really important if you're actually going 569 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 4: to make the investment to read the prospectus. Okay, that document. 570 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 4: It's going to reveal, usually in quite simple terms, financials, 571 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 4: the business risk, what their future plans are going to 572 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 4: look like. What I would be doing is spending some 573 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 4: time here to understand exactly why you're buying into it 574 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,479 Speaker 4: and questioning yourself the entire time being, like, am I 575 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 4: just buying into this ipeo because it sounds shiny? Am 576 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,120 Speaker 4: I buying into it because another podcast talked about it? 577 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 4: Am I buying into it because my friend at brunch said, 578 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 4: oh my gosh, there's this really cool IPO going on, 579 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,959 Speaker 4: and I'm interested too. You need to understand exactly what 580 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 4: you're buying into and any risks that might actually not 581 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 4: be immediately obvious. 582 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 2: Okay, we're going to critically think about this, and now 583 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 2: I just have a quick question. You were allowed many questions. 584 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 2: They do not have to be quick, Thank you. I 585 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm so obsessed with the actual logistics of this. 586 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 4: But the prospectus is of publicly else Yes, and it's 587 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 4: on would you find ax or on the website of 588 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 4: the bony both. 589 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 5: We're going to spam it everywhere because we want everybody 590 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 5: to read our perspectives and think this company is lit. 591 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 5: I'm gonna invest, So like the ax is going to 592 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 5: list their prospectives, but also the company is going to 593 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 5: be like, hey, did you see this? 594 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 2: Did you see my respective? They're going to put it 595 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 2: on their website. 596 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 4: Like this isn't a gate keeping kind of document where 597 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 4: they're like, oh, I hope no one reads this. Like 598 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 4: they're pushing their best foot forward in this document. It's 599 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 4: kind of like it's kind of like a pitch. Ye, 600 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 4: Like it's not a pitch, but like it's kind of 601 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 4: like them saying, hey, here's why we're listing. Because if 602 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 4: you're listening for no good reason, why are you doing that? 603 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 2: You're not going to make money? And can anyone read 604 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 2: this or just have to be translated by. 605 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 4: Like no, no, no, no, anyone will be able to 606 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 4: read it. I mean you might not fully comprehend the 607 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 4: balance sheets in it, and you might be like, oh, 608 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 4: I don't really understand what this means. That's why you 609 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 4: should have done my investing masterclass, because I would have 610 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 4: taught you exactly how to read a business P and 611 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 4: L and you know, a cash flow statement and all 612 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 4: of that. But that's okay, but you're going to have 613 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 4: a look at it and there will be usually summaries 614 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 4: of what. 615 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 2: Each of those things mean, Like, oh, great, this cash. 616 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 4: Flow statement shows that this business has been functioning with 617 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 4: positive cash flow for the last four years or whatever 618 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 4: it means. So I can going to outline it whether 619 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 4: it outlines all of the risks maybe like sometimes, maybe, yes, 620 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 4: sometimes or maybe no. That's where you have to put 621 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 4: your like critical analysis hat on and go hold on, 622 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 4: Like let's zoom out. Let's say it's like a skin 623 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 4: care brand. You need to zoom out and be like, oh, 624 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 4: is this an oversight traded market? Like how well can 625 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 4: a skin care company do in this market? Like what 626 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,479 Speaker 4: do all my friends and family do? Like you're thinking 627 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 4: about it from a lens that you know the company's 628 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 4: not going to write about. 629 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 2: I see very cheeky, isn't it? Well, cheeky bed Like 630 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 2: that's the game. Yeah, that's the name of the game. Okay, 631 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 2: So I've read the prospectus and I know what I'm doing. Yep, 632 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 2: How do I now know that the price that's been 633 00:27:58,119 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 2: set is a good price? 634 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 4: It's a hard question to answer, but picture this right, 635 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 4: maybe like you're shopping for a bag beck, So you're 636 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 4: like in the market and you're like, a really want 637 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 4: a nice backpack, like I want it to fit this 638 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,479 Speaker 4: and that, right, But then you start looking into it 639 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 4: and there's one on TikTok and it's probably the same quality, 640 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 4: but every single TikToker that you follow is currently using 641 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 4: this bag, and like you start to feel influenced by 642 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 4: them and decide, I think I want that one. But 643 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 4: it's pricier than the others. And it's pricier than the 644 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 4: others because of the hype behind it, right, Like it's 645 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 4: been like driven up, not because there's a better quality bag, 646 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 4: not because it's actually even better, but like you've seen 647 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 4: it everywhere, all your favorite influencers have it, Like the 648 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 4: hype is there. IBOs can kind of be the same way, 649 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 4: you know how I was talking about the pizza shop, 650 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 4: Like everyone's really excited about it, like you're driving up 651 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 4: the hype. Then you get there and you're like, wait, 652 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 4: this isn't Like now I'm inside the shop, it's not 653 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 4: actually that good companies sometimes set a high price because 654 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 4: of the buzz that's been generated. Right back to our 655 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 4: pizza shop, Like you got inside the shop and the 656 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 4: pizzas astronomically expensive. 657 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: You like, hold up, like the buzz was. 658 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 4: There and I had hoped for a different price, but 659 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 4: the company that owns the pizza shop was like, oh 660 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 4: my god, there are so many people interested in our 661 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 4: pizza shop. We can charge more for the pizzas. That's 662 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 4: why they said their price really high. You were pissed 663 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 4: off about it, but the company saw that as an 664 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 4: opportunity because there was so much buzz, and they assumed 665 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 4: that because the demand was there, they could absolutely charge more. 666 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 4: But that doesn't mean forty eight dollars for a margarita 667 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 4: pizza's worth it. Like that doesn't mean that it is 668 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 4: worth it to the consumer. Just because everyone's talking about 669 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 4: it and there's buzz on the street about the new 670 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 4: pizza shop, it doesn't mean that you're getting good value, 671 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 4: and it doesn't mean that you should be investing in 672 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 4: it right because you could have spent half the price 673 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 4: and gotten a Domino's version and been really happy with it. 674 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 4: To see if you're now we're going to get a 675 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 4: little bit technical, So if you're listening to this, honestly, 676 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 4: you might want to listen back to this a couple 677 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 4: of times. And this is not because I'm being super technical. 678 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 4: It's just because, like we're going to talk about ratios, 679 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 4: and sometimes that texts a little bit like see not 680 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 4: in a contents anyway. 681 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 2: Absolutely not. 682 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,479 Speaker 4: But if you've never talked about this, why would you 683 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 4: be like, Oh, yes, Victoria, the price to earnings ratio 684 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 4: absolutely makes sense in this situation. But to see if 685 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 4: you're paying I guess the hype tax, you're going to 686 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 4: check the IPO's price to earnings ratio okay, or it's 687 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 4: price to sales ratio compared to similar companies in the 688 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 4: same industry. So what I want to say before I 689 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 4: explain the PE ratio is that you wouldn't use it 690 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 4: in isolation, beck like it's one factor, but you would 691 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 4: make sure that you have additional context around the business 692 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 4: before relying on the PE ratio. And when I say 693 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 4: additional context, like you understand the market, you know what 694 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 4: the pizza shop's about, Like you're not just looking at 695 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 4: a number and going, oh, PE ratio of x okay 696 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 4: in or out, Like that's not how it works, because 697 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 4: you might go, oh, PE ratio is down, but this 698 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 4: makes sense because there's this much to or that doesn't 699 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 4: make sense because you know it just doesn't right. So 700 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 4: even though you should always use a PE ratio, with 701 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 4: additional context. I guess here are some common situations I've 702 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 4: like written down of like what a high PE or 703 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 4: a low PE means. So a high PE ratio means 704 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 4: that the ratio is actually higher than similar shares in 705 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 4: its industry, not across the board, not across the entire market, 706 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 4: but in its industry. And this means that investors actually 707 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 4: might believe that the stock's earnings will increase. They're like, oh, 708 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 4: this is a pretty good share, Like I want to 709 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 4: get in on this, so they're paying a bit more. 710 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 4: And this also means on the flip side, that the 711 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 4: stock might actually be overvalued, like you might actually be 712 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 4: paying too much for it. 713 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 2: I see. 714 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 4: On the flip side, if you get a low PE ratio, 715 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 4: that's where the ratio is lower than similar shares in 716 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 4: the same industry, it might mean that the investors believe 717 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 4: that the stock earning is going to decrease, like they 718 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 4: don't really trust it. They're like, oh, whatever, Like this 719 00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 4: isn't like a good pizza shop. I'm not that into 720 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 4: tested in buying stock. But on the flip side, it 721 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 4: could also mean that the stock is undervalued and it's 722 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 4: a really good opportunity for you, so PE ratio like, 723 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 4: it's a formula of essentially taking the share price. So 724 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 4: the price that they've listed at, let's pretend it's like 725 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 4: sixty dollars. They're like, oh, share price is sixty dollars. 726 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 4: So you take the share price of sixty dollars and 727 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 4: then divide it by how much money you would earn 728 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 4: per share. So the E is the earnings per share, 729 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 4: so the company is profit divided by the number of 730 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 4: shares that exist. So it's basically saying that you would 731 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 4: how much money you're you going to make from the share, 732 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 4: Like if they have a dividend that they would pay out, 733 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,959 Speaker 4: what is that and those figures you won't have to 734 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 4: calculate your earnings per share because that will be public knowledge. 735 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 4: So you just take the stock price and divide it 736 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 4: by the earnings per share and that will give you 737 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 4: a PE ratio. 738 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 2: Okay, now give me five years to absorb that. 739 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 4: I told you I want to listen to it a 740 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 4: couple of times, and it's not because I'm, you know, 741 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 4: being smart or using terms that are complex. It's just 742 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 4: because it's a topic that we've never talked about before, 743 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 4: and it's really important to understand that this is a 744 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 4: really solid ratio in this industry, and if you can 745 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 4: wrap your head around it, like it's essentially I'm saying, Beck, 746 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 4: I need you to find two numbers and do a 747 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 4: little calculation, which is, take number A and divide it 748 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 4: by number B, and that will give you a price 749 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 4: to earnings ratio which will help you, not make the 750 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 4: decision for you, but it will help you make a decision. 751 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 4: And I guess to give you some sense of what 752 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 4: the average for the market is because you're like, well, 753 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 4: what happens when I get a number? 754 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 2: Like what's high? Is it a billion? 755 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 4: What's low? Is it negative billion? Like what does that mean? 756 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,719 Speaker 4: So many value investors would say, okay, the like twenty 757 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 4: to twenty five is a average p ratio. If it's low, 758 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 4: it's low. If it's high, it's high. And you would 759 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 4: go from there. These are things and like back to you, 760 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 4: you know how we're talking At the start, you're like, oh, 761 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 4: you can google things, like you could literally google what 762 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 4: is a good price to earnings ratio for the food 763 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 4: and beverage industry? 764 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 2: Like I can go from there. 765 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 4: If we're talking about the pizza shop, right, you could 766 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 4: be like well, I've calculated the pe ratio, but I 767 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 4: don't know how to use it. 768 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 2: Now. 769 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 4: You could look at the actual industry and then you 770 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 4: could go and look at, like, you know, the pizza 771 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 4: shop down the road, and go, well, what is their 772 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 4: pea ratio because they do a boom in trade, Like 773 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 4: is that an overvalued stock? Is it undervalued? Is it 774 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 4: like on market? Like should I be paying more for 775 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 4: this ipo or for this first time that the brand 776 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,280 Speaker 4: new pizza shop is offering pizza. Should I be buying 777 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 4: in with them? Or am I going to look over 778 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 4: it to this other pizza shop? Because if you found 779 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 4: that they had like a peer ratio of ten, which 780 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 4: is a low PEE ratio, you might be like, well, 781 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 4: is that because the pizza industry is undervaluing a company 782 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 4: that's been around for a long time, or is this 783 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 4: an opportunity there or if it's overvalued, is that like 784 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 4: the most popular pizza shop in town? Does everybody want 785 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 4: to be in with that? Or is it overvalued or 786 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 4: is it actually just a really good investment. So we 787 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,439 Speaker 4: want to not just take that number and go, oh, yep, 788 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 4: it was twenty, so that's good. We want to kind 789 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 4: of contextualize it once we have it. Okay, Okay, does 790 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 4: that make sense? It makes a lot of sense, but 791 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 4: I just want to quickly double check with you. So 792 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 4: the way to get that number is to find the 793 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 4: profit of the company and divide that by the number 794 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 4: of shares available. 795 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 2: Not no, No, you're going. 796 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 4: To take how much they are going to sell their 797 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 4: share for. Okay, that's a very easy number to find. 798 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 4: So you're going to take their share price and then 799 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 4: divide it by the earnings per share, which is how 800 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 4: much you would make from owning that share. 801 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 2: Okay. 802 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 4: And that's available on that's all available online, and it 803 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 4: should be in the prospectives. If it's not in the prospectus, 804 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 4: you would be able to find that information via the ASX. 805 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 2: Great, thank you. And so price to earnings and now 806 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,839 Speaker 2: price to sales. 807 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,879 Speaker 4: Is different, okay. So price to sales ratios is nice. 808 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 4: So we've got like price to earning, so we're like, 809 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 4: what are they charging? 810 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 2: What's the pe ratio? 811 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 4: Now we need to look at price to sales and 812 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 4: a price to sales ratio I think is quite important 813 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 4: and I always use the two of them when I'm 814 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 4: looking at a stock, Like I would never use one 815 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 4: in isolation. 816 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 2: I always do the two. 817 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 4: But a price to sales ratio is essentially a valuation 818 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:26,760 Speaker 4: ratio that compares a company's like share price to its income, 819 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 4: So like. 820 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 2: Are they actually making enough money? 821 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 4: Like not just what they're paying you, which we look 822 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 4: at in the price to earnings, but like how much 823 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 4: revenue is coming into this business? 824 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 2: And it's usually an. 825 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 4: Indicator of the value that the financial markets or like 826 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 4: the investing market as a whole, has placed on each 827 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 4: dollar of a company's sales or revenue. So I guess 828 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 4: TLDR because like I don't want to like dive too 829 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 4: deep into it, but we can do a whole ratios 830 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 4: podcast at some point. But the price to sales ratio 831 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 4: shows how much investors are willing to pay per stock. Okay, 832 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 4: like how much they will to pay per dollar of 833 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 4: sales for a stock. 834 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 2: If that makes sense. 835 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 4: So like, if they're doing like a million dollars worth 836 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 4: of trade, that will translate directly to like a dollar 837 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 4: for a dollar share price valuation, if that makes sense. 838 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 2: So the PS ratio PS I love you. 839 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 4: But PS ratio is calculated by dividing the stock price 840 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 4: by the underlying companies sales per share, which again will 841 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 4: be accessible. You don't need to do all of these 842 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 4: calculations in the background to then get this calculation. This 843 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 4: information is available, but you do have to kind of 844 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 4: plug it in. 845 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 2: And do you know what you can do? 846 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 4: You can google price to sales ratio calculator on one 847 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 4: will come up and you can just plug it in 848 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 4: and it will do it for you so that you 849 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 4: know that it's correct. Okay, right, Like lots of investing 850 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 4: platforms have this for free. But back to what I 851 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 4: was saying before, because we compared the low PE ratio 852 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 4: to a high PE ratio, a low price to sales 853 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 4: ratio could imply that, like, shares are currently being undervalued, 854 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 4: and so like that. Why you know how I said, 855 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 4: I always do the two together. Obviously, if the PE 856 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 4: ratio and the price to earnings ratio is saying, oh, 857 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 4: this stock's undervalued, but then my price to sales ratio 858 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 4: is saying it's overvalued, we need to do some more research, beck. 859 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 4: We kind of want them to make sense together. So 860 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 4: a low ratio BECK could essentially imply that the share 861 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 4: is undervalued and it might be a goodbye. While a 862 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 4: ratio that's higher than average. It could actually show you 863 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 4: that the stock is currently being overvalued, and then we're 864 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 4: going to look at it again in context. We never 865 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 4: just look at these ratios on their own. One of 866 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 4: the downsides to having a PS ratio or a price 867 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 4: to sales ratio is that it doesn't take into account 868 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 4: whether the company makes any earnings or whether it will 869 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 4: ever make any earnings as a whole. It depends on 870 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 4: how you're doing it. And I mean, at the end 871 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 4: of the day, to PS ratio is a key tool 872 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 4: that analysts use when it comes to valuation. Like it's 873 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 4: kind of like the bread and butter in the investment market, 874 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,760 Speaker 4: and I think it just it makes sense that you 875 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 4: get to understand that. Whether you do that or not 876 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 4: completely up to you. But my job is to give 877 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 4: you all the tools and resources so that you could 878 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 4: like quickly calculate something and be like, oh, that kind 879 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,959 Speaker 4: of makes sense to me, and it makes you feel 880 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 4: empowered making decisions. 881 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally. 882 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 4: That felt extremely complex to me, but hopefully that but 883 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 4: if we sat down and did it a couple of times, 884 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 4: Like the price to earnings ratio is just taking two 885 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 4: numbers dividing them by that totally ave reages twenty to 886 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 4: twenty five, and then you've got a price to sales ratio, 887 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 4: and that's going to tell you what a share is 888 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 4: trading at per dollar. Like, and they make sense when 889 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,720 Speaker 4: we start to really break them down again, the bros 890 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 4: have browed too hard and made us think that it 891 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 4: is really complex, but their jobs they're just still a 892 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 4: little boys. 893 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 2: Well that's very true. It's always can do it exactly. 894 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 4: We're on the same pay we have the same algorithm. 895 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 4: It we do it seems okay. So beyond the numbers, 896 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 4: is there anything else you look at to get a 897 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 4: read on, like the company? What clues are they feel 898 00:39:58,960 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 4: in my portfolio? 899 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 2: Cute? They got to look cute. 900 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 4: They've got to look cute, Like I don't want to yea, yeah, 901 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 4: if I'm gonna like buy into a stock, like and 902 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 4: you've got ugly logo, absolutely not no, So I think, 903 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 4: obviously beyond the aesthetics, which absolutely play no role in this, 904 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,320 Speaker 4: I'm going to look at their leadership team. Okay, creepy 905 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 4: little store cart and you should be too, right, So, like, 906 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 4: I want to look at their leadership team and what 907 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 4: their track record is. You can go down an absolute 908 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 4: rabbit hole. But what you're going to do is have 909 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:29,479 Speaker 4: a look at like. 910 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 2: Who's the CEO? Who has that CEO led? Before you 911 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 2: can look. 912 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 4: At their LinkedIn? Do you know how many people I 913 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 4: look at on LinkedIn? Like, I have no shame. You 914 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 4: know how it sometimes tells you who has seen your profile? Yeah, 915 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 4: there will be six million CEOs, six million market analysts 916 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 4: who all have Victoria Devine has looked at your profile, 917 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 4: and they'll be like, why I'm judging your business? 918 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm here. I have no shame. 919 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 4: But you're going to look at the track record of 920 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:58,320 Speaker 4: a company because if they have a strong record of success, 921 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 4: they might be more likely to steer the new company 922 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 4: that they're working for in a profitable direction. Sure, and 923 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,439 Speaker 4: I've done this before, right, Like I was not sure 924 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 4: about it ETF that had just launched market. I didn't 925 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 4: get in on ipo because like, sometimes I'm just a 926 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 4: little bit conservative, like IPOs are fund I've gotten in 927 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 4: on IPOs before, that makes sense. But sometimes I just 928 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 4: like to watch and I like to wait, and I 929 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 4: like to see that it does what it says it's 930 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 4: going to do, and if it means like hey, a 931 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 4: tiny bit more for that stock, my plan is to 932 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 4: hold it for a really long time. So with that intention, 933 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 4: my money should double anyway, right, So, like whether I 934 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 4: saved a little bit or not, Like, that's not my 935 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 4: problem to me. That's an investment in making sure that 936 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 4: I'm making the right decisions for me and my portfolio. 937 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,720 Speaker 4: But there was an ETF so an exchange traded fund 938 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 4: yeah that I was like, Oh, this kind of looks interesting. 939 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 4: It was by a good company, but they'd never done 940 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 4: this segment before. And so I looked at the fund manager, 941 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 4: and then I went on his LinkedIn and saw where 942 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 4: he used to work. And then I went on his 943 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 4: old company's page and I looked at what ETFs he 944 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 4: used to manage there and how that worked, and saw 945 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 4: that he did a really good job and then handed 946 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 4: over the reins to somebody to go into bigger and 947 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,800 Speaker 4: better things. And I'm thinking, oh, this guy knows this industry. 948 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,280 Speaker 4: Because it was one of the first ethical like portfolios 949 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 4: that this company had done. And I was like, how 950 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 4: do they know how to construct an ethical portfolio? Because like, 951 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,839 Speaker 4: as much as you might think that's quite simple, it's 952 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 4: actually quite complicated to make sure that not only are 953 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 4: the businesses in that portfolio ethical, but also they perform, 954 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 4: because like, I'm not going to buy an ETF that's 955 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 4: ethical and then be happy losing money, Like I want 956 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 4: my investments to create wealth for me, right, So I 957 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 4: did the biggest deep dive this poor guy's LinkedIn, his 958 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,720 Speaker 4: old assistance LinkedIn got looked at like everyone who managed 959 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 4: him on his manager, I was a super creepy stalker. 960 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 4: And I regret nothing because that gave me a lot 961 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 4: of validation that that was probably an investment that I 962 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 4: wanted to get involved in. So like, if the leadership 963 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 4: team is new, you. 964 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 2: Can have a look at that. 965 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 4: But also I want to know had I I've gone 966 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 4: and done this research beck and found that this guy 967 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 4: had never actually constructed an ETF before, he'd never picked 968 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 4: shares out. Why would he know that? Why would he 969 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 4: have any experience in ethical investing? Like that would have 970 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 4: been a red flag to me that they had just 971 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 4: done I guess a tokenistic portfolio that I wasn't probably 972 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 4: interested in. But what I found was like he had 973 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 4: a background in ethical investing, he had put together ETFs before, 974 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 4: he'd actually spoken at international conferences on constructing ethical portfolios, 975 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 4: And I was like this guy, Like, I back that. 976 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 4: So we want to find good things. Yeah, right, Like 977 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 4: it's kind of like you work for a radio station, beck, Yeah, 978 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 4: So new guy comes into the office, You're like, oh, 979 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 4: what does he do? Like, Oh, he's coming pretty top dog. 980 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 4: You go on his LinkedIn, you see that he's worked 981 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 4: at other radio stations and he's kind of worked his way. 982 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 2: I'd be like, Oh, this. 983 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 4: Guy's got some good experience. You can't wait for him 984 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 4: to join the team. That's what we're doing, but with 985 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,879 Speaker 4: our shares. Okay, that's super creepy, stalker. We don't mind 986 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 4: if people see that we've been on their LinkedIn, Right, 987 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:01,760 Speaker 4: you don't mind. 988 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:02,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 989 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 4: The next thing you want to do is check for 990 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 4: insider selling. Okay, So insider activity can I think be 991 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 4: quite telling if founders or like early investors are starting 992 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:17,320 Speaker 4: to sell really large portions of shares at the initial 993 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 4: public offering. To me, that might signal doubt about the 994 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 4: company's future performance. Like why is the CEO selling all 995 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 4: of their shares. 996 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 2: Once it got listed? Why they scared? 997 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 4: Because often in a company like a company might issue 998 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 4: shares to their existing employees. Yeah, so I might go, oh, 999 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 4: beg you've worked for shares on the money. I'm going 1000 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 4: to give you a few shares as like you know, 1001 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 4: part of your remuneration package. 1002 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 2: And you go, sweet. 1003 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 4: They but then we go we're going to go to market, Beck, 1004 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 4: and you're like, thank god, I've got time to get out, 1005 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 4: but I'm going to sell my shares the second it 1006 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 4: gets listed to some unknowing other person. 1007 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, but. 1008 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 4: If they're holding onto their shares, or even if the 1009 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 4: CEO is buying more shares, that could be a really 1010 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 4: positive sign that it's a good company and the CEA 1011 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 4: is like, I really believe in this. Yeah, okay, that's 1012 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:04,959 Speaker 4: doing some creepy stocker things. 1013 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 2: Again. Yes, I love that. 1014 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 4: It's market research. If it is publicly accessible information. 1015 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 2: Beck, it's research research. It's research. I'm great, my great. 1016 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 4: The other thing I've got a whole list here I 1017 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 4: do apologize is so we're going to have a look 1018 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 4: at the company's industry trends and their growth potential. So 1019 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 4: like investing in IPOs in industries with like really strong 1020 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 4: long term growth potential, like maybe like renewable energy or 1021 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:34,879 Speaker 4: like tech can be advantageous. So we're probably gonna want 1022 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 4: to and this is maybe just personal advice avoid IPOs 1023 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 4: in sectors that have been stagnant or like overly trend dependent, 1024 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,760 Speaker 4: as they might actually not have sustainable long term returns. 1025 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,240 Speaker 4: Like I don't want to get in on something that's 1026 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,319 Speaker 4: like it's a bit done. Yeah, so I guess a 1027 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 4: good example of this, Like I'm just gonna say, like 1028 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 4: a Stanley cup, right, so like last year on TikTok, 1029 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 4: last even eighteen months on TikTok, every man in his 1030 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 4: dog has their like Stanley drink cup, Right, so I 1031 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,879 Speaker 4: would say that that trend might be a bit done. 1032 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 4: I don't know what the long term growth potential of 1033 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 4: a you know, a new drink bottle company might be. 1034 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 2: I'm a little bit you know, wary. 1035 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 4: They're not exactly you know, a tech company or renewable 1036 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 4: energy that's going to positively contribute to our society for 1037 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 4: a long period of time. Like maybe and I'm not 1038 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 4: saying that Stanley Cup's had its day. It's like absolutely 1039 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 4: still a thing, but like maybe a new drink bottle 1040 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,319 Speaker 4: company that's coming in to be their competitor. You're kind 1041 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 4: of like, oh, but people have already done that, Like 1042 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 4: do I want to be buying that, like I can 1043 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 4: go get a fake Stanley cup tomorrow from kmart. This 1044 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 4: isn't new technology, This isn't something that I think is 1045 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 4: going to be sustainable in the long term. Right And 1046 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 4: obviously we're not talking about Stanley specifically here because they 1047 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 4: have market share at the moment. It's a new company 1048 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 4: coming in and you're like, oh, they're iboing, Like oh, 1049 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 4: I love the Stanley drink cups. That makes sense. But 1050 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 4: like if Kmart's doing them, is it done now? Like 1051 00:46:55,200 --> 00:47:00,040 Speaker 4: it's the trend over? Like I want sustainable long term returns, 1052 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 4: and then reputation. Reputation is really important, And I mean 1053 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 4: I have been on the slam multi level marketing companies 1054 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 4: for a really long time bandwagon and I'm just going 1055 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 4: to continue to talk about it. But if you're not 1056 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:19,160 Speaker 4: googling a company name and the word scam or controversy 1057 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 4: or cork case, like what are you doing? 1058 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: Oh? 1059 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 5: This information is public knowledge, Beck, Like you can google, 1060 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 5: for example, money scam. You could google money, cork case, 1061 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 5: and so much information would come up to me. If 1062 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:37,360 Speaker 5: I was then going to invest in that company, that 1063 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 5: might be a red flag that they have so many 1064 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 5: court cases against them, Right, is that free to do, 1065 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,359 Speaker 5: yes back to it is simple. 1066 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 4: To google, but you just need to know what to google. 1067 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 4: So when we're looking for reputation, obviously that's not just 1068 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,959 Speaker 4: googling like you know, keywords and scam whatnot. Like that's 1069 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 4: just me being a little bit spicy, but like we're 1070 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 4: gonna have a look at like media coverage, like what 1071 00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 4: coverage have they gotten? 1072 00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 2: Has it been positive? Has it been negative? 1073 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 4: Usually now in you know, twenty twenty four, there's reviews everywhere. 1074 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:08,040 Speaker 4: Having a look at the company's reviews, Like what do 1075 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 4: their Google reviews say. We're going to also look on 1076 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 4: their Instagram and their social media because often people will 1077 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 4: take to Facebook or take to Instagram to vent like 1078 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 4: what are the comments sections saying what are their tagged posts? 1079 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 4: We're not looking at what the company is put out 1080 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 4: on their pretty little grid. We're looking at what have 1081 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 4: they been tagged in? What hashtags are being used? Like, 1082 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 4: Cause if it's like a pizza company, right, you're going 1083 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 4: to go to their Instagram. They're gonna have beautiful pictures 1084 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 4: of the Margarita pizza. They're gonna have beautiful pictures of 1085 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 4: this happy team, and then you're going to go to tagged, 1086 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 4: and there might be a post from Beck being like, 1087 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 4: look at this cockroach in my pizza? 1088 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 1: Right? 1089 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:41,879 Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? 1090 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:43,879 Speaker 4: You're like, Oh, that's not what you said you were. 1091 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 4: So we're going to look at the brand reputation. In 1092 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,240 Speaker 4: a perfect world, you'll also be able to understand employee satisfactions, 1093 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 4: So websites like glassdoor can really help you understand if 1094 00:48:55,360 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 4: the team is there. Also, again publicly accessible information, but 1095 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 4: we are going a little bit creepys talker. How long 1096 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 4: have their employees been there? LinkedIn will tell you that 1097 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 4: if you go to the company's LinkedIn page, Yes, say 1098 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,319 Speaker 4: an average tenure, it's less than a year. 1099 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 2: What's going on? 1100 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1101 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 2: What's that? 1102 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 4: Why is everyone leaving after twelve months? What's the average 1103 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,879 Speaker 4: tenure of their leadership team? Specifically, like do they get 1104 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 4: a new CEO every eighteen months? 1105 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 5: Like? 1106 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 2: What's going on here? Red flag? 1107 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:27,760 Speaker 4: And then understanding their company's culture and their core values. 1108 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 4: Is the company run by people who are also associated 1109 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 4: with a cult? 1110 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 2: Good thing? To figure out if it is. I'd probably 1111 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 2: be concerned. I would be I'd be asking some questions. 1112 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 2: I would be asking some questions and being like, is 1113 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 2: this for me? 1114 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,400 Speaker 4: Rolemably not, and then we're obviously going to have a 1115 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 4: look at the market condition. So this isn't specifically for 1116 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,720 Speaker 4: your industry or your specific share, but like IPOs tend 1117 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 4: to perform better in stable or bullish market. So remember 1118 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,360 Speaker 4: back to like when I say bullish, do you know 1119 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 4: what bullish means? 1120 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:03,280 Speaker 2: Bullish? I can't remember. 1121 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 5: It's aggressive, like going up, like the red flag is 1122 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:09,520 Speaker 5: like flying, and the bull is running for the red flag. 1123 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 5: And the market's are like doing really well, and a 1124 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,280 Speaker 5: bear bears. 1125 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,479 Speaker 2: Like to hibernate. They like to have a little nap 1126 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 2: and they're not doing much work. 1127 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 4: So a bull market is where it's doing really well 1128 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 4: and it's growing. In a bear market, it's gone into 1129 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 4: a little bit of hibernation. It's just chilling, like it's 1130 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,760 Speaker 4: probably going to come back because you know it ebbs 1131 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 4: and flows. But in a bullish market, obviously an IPO 1132 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,319 Speaker 4: is going to go better because the market sentiment and 1133 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 4: people are ready to buy. Whereas in like a period 1134 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 4: of lull or hibernation, if I said do you want 1135 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 4: to buy aniwchhe You're like no, I might just continue napping, 1136 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 4: like I'm not that interested, Like I'm seeing everybody else, 1137 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,240 Speaker 4: you know, not buying, so I'm not going to buy 1138 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 4: does that make sense? And then in a volatile market, 1139 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 4: So in a bear market, new stocks they can experience 1140 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 4: I guess really dramatic like price rings. They might like 1141 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,239 Speaker 4: launch it a really high price and then go down, 1142 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 4: but that might not actually be reflective of their value. 1143 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 4: So I would weigh what the current market conditions are? Okay, 1144 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 4: go what kind of market are we in? But also 1145 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 4: if you are a company and you are considering ipoing 1146 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 4: and going onto the share market, and you're like, let's 1147 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:18,360 Speaker 4: do this during economic downturn? 1148 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 2: What are you doing? 1149 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 4: That's like a really dumb decision. You're selling yourself into 1150 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 4: a period of time where people aren't that confident in investing, 1151 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 4: let alone investing in new things. 1152 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 2: Right, you want to do it in a bulls market? Yeah, 1153 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 2: So I'd be like, why are you doing it in 1154 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 2: a bear market? To you, potato? And how do we 1155 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 2: find out if it's a bull or bear? Right now? 1156 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 4: So you can just google it, like what's the Australian 1157 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 4: share market up to at the moment? I do a 1158 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 4: lot of obviously investing content you can ask me. I'll 1159 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,640 Speaker 4: talk about it, but yeah, I feel like I've yapped 1160 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 4: on and on and on about this, so h I 1161 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:52,239 Speaker 4: think the question on everyone slips remains. Will Shees on 1162 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 4: the Money ever be the next IPO? Absolutely not, absolutely not, 1163 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 4: Like I know that you might want us to IPO 1164 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 4: and it would be really fancy, And I feel like 1165 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 4: this is not like a mean thing to say, but 1166 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,240 Speaker 4: I feel like sometimes if you are a business owner, 1167 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:11,719 Speaker 4: ipoing and selling shares can be quite ego driven. Sure, 1168 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 4: like you're like, I'm list it, like okay, cool, Like 1169 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 4: no one gets like literally like I don't think you're 1170 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:20,120 Speaker 4: cooler because you have a company that iPod. I just 1171 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:25,279 Speaker 4: don't like the idea that I would be responsible for shareholders. 1172 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I like that the buck stops with. 1173 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 4: Me and I make the decisions because, like, let's be honest, 1174 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 4: a lot of the decisions that I make in my 1175 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,520 Speaker 4: business a company would be like, oh, I'm sorry, Like 1176 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 4: you could increase shareholder profit by not sending your team 1177 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 4: members on international conference trips. And on the flip side, 1178 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, I love that I can have a 1179 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 4: business that gets to invest in the growth of my team, like, 1180 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 4: and that's not like the values that I hold Sometimes 1181 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 4: don't align with high shareholder return. 1182 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 2: Right, Okay, does that make sense? Yeah, and you're allowed. 1183 00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:59,520 Speaker 2: I could do what I want. You can do what 1184 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:02,240 Speaker 2: you want the free world, including right now. I reckon, 1185 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 2: let's go do what we want.
