Their picks, scored

Across their last 20 scored bets: 55% hit rate, -0.52% mean alpha, trader score -0.84. Their last-14d mentions, direction-adjusted, have moved +3.7% since posting (mean over 21 mentions with price data).

BNPL longs, Intuit pricing bear, quality compounder adds

ManuInvests is mainly long BNPL via SEZL as the primary pick and a smaller KLAR valuation position, while bearish on INTU pricing power and SPCX valuation mechanics. The distinctive read is bottom-fishing low-sentiment or derated quality names, especially adding MA and SPGI at multi-year valuation lows. Late-week activity centered on explicit adds to MA/SPGI and disclosed BNPL positioning rather than a clear flip.

Direction this week

Conviction is concentrated in BNPL longs, especially SEZL, with KLAR as a smaller valuation-based companion position. Bearish attention is focused on INTU pricing power and SPCX valuation/float mechanics, while the only explicit trade actions are late-week adds to MA and SPGI. The MA/SPGI theme is intensifying because constructive discussion on June 19 was followed by explicit add calls on June 20.

Grade is our human read-worthiness rating; trader score is a rolling 20-bet hit-rate/alpha composite — different things, often disagreeing. “Since then” is direction-unaware in the table; the summary line above adjusts for which way they leaned.
