Finding a great company is easy. Apple is perhaps one of the most successful businesses ever created. But whether you should invest in it depends on the price. If we could all invest in Apple at a $500 billion valuation, everyone would be in. At $20 trillion, no thank you.
The same goes for private deals. Scale AI is a great company. It drives 90% of the AI software in the world, and every AI company you’ve heard of uses Scale. That doesn’t automatically make it a good investment. You need to know what kind of shares you’re buying and what you’re paying for them. That’s why due diligence behind these deals is so important.
Key points
- A great company isn’t automatically a great investment.
- Apple at $500 billion vs. $20 trillion shows why price matters.
- With Scale AI, know the share type and price, not just the company.
- Due diligence on terms and price is essential.
