1. SuperCompounders

This is a list of all the companies covered in the memo. We calculate Total Return for each company assuming you had bought the stock at the average price during the first year of the IPO and reinvested the dividends. This is not a ranked list of our favorite investments, rather it is meant to provide additional insightful information on the companies we discuss each week (note: ‘Page’ references the page of the memo on which you can find the company). Naturally, it is harder to compound capital at a high rate (see IRR) over longer periods of time, so it is not surprising to see companies like MRNA 0.00%↑ near the top of the list with only ~4 years as a public company.
