Professor

1:16:58·2025·undergraduate level

This session extends the discussion on narrative valuation, emphasizing the importance of feedback loops in refining business stories and identifying pitfalls like runaway stories and the big market delusion. It applies these concepts to initial company valuations.

In this class, we continued our discussion of stories, and how critical it is to keep the feedback loop open, so that you can make your stories better. I also talked about runaway stories and the big market delusion, and if you are interested, here are my posts on the topics: Big Market Delusions: We also talked about how story breaks, shifts and changes. Since I talked about dealing with new earnings reports, I thought you may find these two posts of interest in how narratives shift, and with them, values: Reacting to Earnings Reports: Toward the end of the class, we valued a mature, dividend paying company in ConEd and a mature growth company in 3M, before and after a market crisis.
