Great note Conor!

Agree on the macro one with a caveat. If you pick a great businesses run by a great owner/manager, are those managers who in the long run will make your job as an investor easier by making good capital allocation decisions for you.

REITs' lead in returns ... yet under-covered space and not many there, especially retail investors ... strange

I own a small allocation to REITs, but agree it's more so dividend investors I see discussing these stocks.

Thanks for highlighting how staying in one's circle of competence can be done to a fault. We encourage people to constantly expand their circle by following rabbit holes of interest and taking action in small, consistent steps.

Thanks, Conor

Excellent, truly excellent. I have a strong dividend growth bias, and for beter or worse, I was able to retire at 54.
