Thesis Library

Despite being in the industry for a few years now, I haven’t been able to find a good library/database of investment thesis examples. Are there any public (or accessible private) examples of investment thesis, with detail of decision making criteria and end result?

Oppty to acquire a top 3 provider of xyz services poised for MSD organic growth with incremental value creation levers through service line expansion into HSD-LDD growth adjacencies and targeted M&A in consolidating sector

More seriously — look at any investment presentation for a public company and synthesize the main ideas into a sentence or two. That’s every investment thesis

 

Go on 10x EBITDA and have a look at some of the activist hedge fund presentations from Elliott, Pershing etc, its pretty exhaustive post 2015-ish :)! May not have the absolute latest like Elliott / PepsiCo but you can find that quite easily.

If you dig really deeply on the internet, you'll be able to find some of the older gems like Pershing / MBIA etc which are incredible depending on your sector.

Good luck!
