How to Find 100 Bagger Stocks
On episode 240 of The Compound and Friends, Downtown Josh Brown and Michael Batnick sit down with Neeraj Khemlani and Matt Ankrum to discuss The Coffee Can Investor, the search for 100-bagger stocks, and what it really takes to build generational wealth through long-term investing. Matt shares the investing philosophy behind his concentrated “coffee can” portfolio for his three daughters: 20 stocks, $250,000 each, held with the goal of compounding over decades. The conversation covers the psychology of holding through massive drawdowns, why high-quality companies can outperform with lower volatility, and how investors can improve their odds by eliminating the 96% of companies unlikely to create lasting wealth. They also dig into Charlie Munger’s “invert, always invert” framework, Hendrik Bessembinder’s research on wealth creation in the stock market, the role of AI in disrupting software companies, and why some incumbents may be more resilient than Wall Street thinks.
