In this company focused interview, we talk with Abdullah Al-Rezwan, known on Twitter as Mostly Borrowed Ideas. We focus on just two companies: Spotify and Lululemon. In our Spotify segment we cover what an investor would have thought in 2021 about Spotify without the ex post facto analysis and walk through developments in the audio company up to current day. Our Lululemon discussion is centered around the recent shift in market sentiment on the business and how valid the adverse risks are.

You can find more about MBI and become a member to his research service here.
