About
Hi everyone!
Welcome to A Letter a Day.
Here, I share some of my favorite letters, memos, and transcripts from Investors (Venture Capitalists, Private Equity Investors, and Hedge Fund Managers) and Operators (Founders and Executives). You can find the full list of letters here. You can also see a rough categorization of everyone I plan to cover here:
This newsletter originally started as a way for me to share some of my favorite primary documents, which I mostly curated from my compilations. Over time, it’s evolved into and branched off into several different projects, including Speedwell Research (buyside research for the buyside), Cloud Valley (biographical stories), and DJY Research (Asia research). You can see my full list of my projects below.
Speedwell Research — Comprehensive research on great public companies including Constellation Software, Floor & Decor, Meta (Facebook) and interesting new frameworks like the Consumer’s Hierarchy of Preferences.
Cloud Valley — Easy to read, in-depth biographies that explore the defining moments, investments, and life decisions of investing, business, and tech legends like Dan Loeb, Bob Iger, Steve Jurvetson, and Cyan Banister.
DJY Research — Comprehensive research on publicly-traded Asian companies like Alibaba, Tencent, Nintendo, Sea Limited (FREE SAMPLE), Coupang (FREE SAMPLE), and more.
Compilations — “A national treasure — for every country.”
Memos — A selection of some of my favorite investor memos.
Bookshelves — Your favorite investors’/operators’ favorite books.
