It's important to note that we are long-term investors. For us, long-term means a decade or longer. That means that in any given point in time there's a 12-month outlook. But if you're an investor for the next decade, that means that our outlook is more like for the next decade. We do not change our approach to quality, growth, and valuation, regardless of the market environment. Having said that, each time you have a major disruption in the marketplace, whether it be year 2000 after the dot com crash or 2008 and 2009 energy, materials, industrials bubble burst, or the most recent 2020 to 22 work-from-home stocks’ bubble burst, you have a change in how investors approach investing. We believe that investors going forward, at least for the foreseeable future, will demand profitability and quality in the companies that they will be investing in, which aligns with how we invest in general.
