Mini deep dive on Coupang ($CPNG)
Paid subscribers to Jonah’s Growth Stock Deep Dives receive ~3 deep dives per month (~8,000 words) and ~3 mini deep dives per month (~2,000 words) plus access to my current investment portfolio (up +23.7% in 2024, up +134.7% in 2023 and up +1,200% since January 2020) plus my investment models and daily webcasts.
My investment strategy is to own 20-30 of the best growth stocks with the best fundamentals at the most reasonable valuations — if the fundamentals begin to disappoint or the valuation no longer looks compelling then I’m trimming or selling my position. I don’t own stocks, I rent them, and I keep renting them as long as the fundamentals still look good, the valuation still looks good and my investment thesis still looks good. I want stocks that have at least 50% upside within 1-2 years and at least 100% upside within 3-4 years. If I buy stocks that are too expensive or the fundamentals aren’t good enough or my investment thesis is weak — I’ll never hit my investment targets.
