Great growth investing isn’t always about finding companies growing revenue the fastest. Some of the best opportunities come from businesses that can grow free cash flow through different paths. Here are the 3 setups I look for 👇 1️⃣ Slow Revenue Growth → Faster FCF Growth 💰 Companies with modest revenue growth but plenty of room to expand margins can deliver outsized free cash flow growth without needing a major acceleration in sales. 👀 Watchlist: $Intercontinental Exchange(ICE)$ $Broadridge Financial Solutions(BR)$ 2️⃣ High Returns on Capital → Buyback-Driven FCF Growth 🔄 Businesses that generate strong returns on capital can use excess cash to repurchase shares, increasing FCF per share over time while sh

Some businesses don't need to win every customer. They just need to control something everyone else depends on. From chipmaking equipment and payment networks to cloud infrastructure and credit ratings, these companies operate in markets where competition is limited, switching costs are high, and challengers face enormous barriers to entry. Here’s a look at some of the most powerful monopolies, duopolies, and oligopolies in the global economy. 🏰 Monopolies (near-total control of a critical bottleneck) • $ASML Holding NV(ASML)$ — EUV lithography (100%) • $Verizon(VZ)$ — .com domain registry • $CoStar(CSGP)$ — US commercial real estate data •

How do you know if a company is actually high quality? 🤔 You don’t look at it in isolation. You compare it. Against its peers. Against competitors. Against suppliers and customers. And even against businesses that have almost nothing to do with it. Comparison is what separates the companies that look good from the companies that actually stand out. 📊 For me, one of the biggest things I look for is what happens to free cash flow as a business grows. Can revenue growth turn into faster FCF growth? 💰 Can FCF growth turn into faster FCF per share growth? 📈 That’s where things get really interesting. Margin expansion can increase FCF. Buybacks can reduce the share count and push FCF per share even higher. And if the market eventually assigns a higher multiple, shareholders can benefit again. So

I like companies that can turn revenue growth into even faster FCF growth — and then turn that FCF growth into even stronger FCF per share. That’s where the real compounding starts. 🔥 Three things can make the engine work even harder: 📈 Margin expansion means more cash from every dollar of revenue. 💵 Share buybacks spread that growing cash flow across fewer shares. 🚀 Multiple expansion can add another layer of upside when the market starts paying more for that growth. The result is powerful: Revenue ↑ → FCF ↑↑ → FCF/share ↑↑↑ The companies in this list are showing exactly that kind of progression over the next decade. A few standouts from the screen: Comfort Systems USA 21% revenue CAGR → 41% FCF CAGR → 42% FCF/share CAGR e.l.f. Beauty 24% revenue CAGR → 30% FCF CAGR → 30% FCF/share CAGR I

One of the best things about the stock market? There are thousands of great businesses you’ve probably never heard of. Take $First Cash(FCFS)$ . I only came across it recently, and it’s a perfect reminder of why investors should keep digging beyond the usual mega-cap names. 📈 Dividend growth has been remarkably consistent 💰 Earnings have continued to compound 🚀 The share price has delivered strong long-term appreciation And the business is still executing. FirstCash reported 29% revenue growth and 58% GAAP EPS growth in Q2 2026, while also raising capital returns through a new $150M buyback authorization. This is why I love researching stocks. You don’t need to find the next $NVDA. Sometimes the best opportunities are hiding in companies most of t

One of the best ways to find great businesses isn’t to ask: “Who has the biggest market share?” Ask this instead: “What happens if customers can’t use them?” 👀 That’s where the real monopolies and oligopolies show up. 🏰 MONOPOLIES / NEAR-MONOPOLIES $ASML Holding NV(ASML)$ — EUV lithography$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ — advanced semiconductor manufacturing$VeriSign(VRSN)$ — .com domain registry$CoStar(CSGP)$ — U.S. commercial real estate data$Fair Isaac(FICO)$ — credit scoring$CME Group Inc(CME)$ — futures & derivatives in

When I look at $MSCI Inc(MSCI)$ , three things stand out. First, it’s a great company with strong financial metrics. Second, the valuation looks attractive. And third, the stock price has basically gone nowhere for five years. 🤔 That combination is what makes $MSCI interesting. Because if the business looks good and the valuation looks reasonable, why hasn’t the stock gone anywhere? There are really two possibilities. 👉 The market is right. Future profitability and business quality could deteriorate, and the current valuation is already pricing in what looks like an attractive setup. 👉 The market is wrong. Investors may be underestimating how strong MSCI’s profitability and business quality can remain in the future. If it’s the second one, there’s

Nearly every great long-term investor seems to own at least one of these six companies: $Alphabet(GOOG)$ $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ $Microsoft(MSFT)$ $Moody's(MCO)$ $S&P Global(SPGI)$ $MasterCard(MA)$ $Visa(V)$ There is a clear common thread: high-quality businesses with strong competitive moats, recurring revenue, pricing power, high returns on capital and relatively asset-light business models. And importantly, this is not simply an AI basket. You have AI/cloud exposure through Microsoft and Alphabet,

Revenue growth is only the first step. The real compounding happens when a company can turn higher revenue into even faster FCF growth, and then turn that FCF growth into even faster FCF per share growth. 📈 That is where three powerful forces come together: Margin expansion + Buybacks + Multiple contraction A company doesn't necessarily need explosive revenue growth to generate strong long-term shareholder returns. If margins keep expanding, cash flow can grow faster than revenue. If management keeps buying back shares, FCF per share can grow even faster. And if the valuation multiple doesn't expand — or even contracts — the underlying business can still deliver strong returns. 🔥 The companies that stand out The following 24 companies show the characteristics of this kind of compounding mo

$Apple(AAPL)$ has delivered a staggering 2,860% gain 📈, but its impressive track record does not mean the stock is without risk. 🔊 Pricing Power vs. Mega Client Apple controls an estimated 40–50% of the smartphone audio market, yet more than 85% of revenue comes from a single mega-client. That concentration creates a structural risk that investors cannot ignore, even with strong market share. 💰 Capital Efficiency Its asset-light, fabless model keeps capital requirements low while generating roughly 28% cash return on capital. Steady buybacks add another layer of shareholder support. 📊 Valuation Matters Our conservative two-year forecast looks at whether a 9%+ FCF yield provides enough margin of safety at current levels. 🔎 The key question is no lo
