"A bit wild that $MNDY remains a top quartile public market software company grower (25% this qtr 27% LTM should hold 20% this year) yet is trading among the cheapest EV/S EV/GP EV/FCF on the comp set. I think the no-touch weakness is mostly an SEO issue. SEO is dying replaced by paid clicks but the ROIC on paid is challenging as ad prices inflate (everyone chasing limited growth) and this part of the TAM has low LTV anyways (low $100-$1k ARR higher churn limited upsell potential) so cant justify much CAC.

"Where the software shorts and I are in agreement is that financial management of these companies is a complete disaster. Software companies are run more loosely than in any other industry bc 1) biz model is so good but also 2) investors have tolerated it. There is no focus on actual shareholder value creation outside of some growth and vague sandbagged adjusted profitability targets. Buybacks used to offset dilution is not a return to shareholders"

"Charlie Kawwas head of $AVGO semis business was even more explicit and detailed on this today at GS segmenting the AI accelerator mkt into three parts: - Internet scale customers ( $META $GOOG Bytedance Tencent): significant logic and value for these companies spending $10s of Bns all on internal infra to customize ASICs for own environments. AVGO can bring new XPUs to mkt in a year. Sees most of this mkt going to custom silicon in 5yrs. - Hyperscale Clouds: more work to do to get adoption of custom accelerators since you also need customers to be willing to work with them.
