We have grown fond of owning the “best of the best,” the companies that dominate their niches with undeniable quality. Booking Holdings is one of them. It rarely looks cheap, which raises the key question: Does it still deserve a place in our Intrinsic Value Portfolio?

Check out this week’s newsletter as we dive into Booking Holdings, a proven compounding machine at the center of global travel.

Today on The Intrinsic Value Podcast, Shawn O’Malley and Daniel Mahncke break down Booking Holdings (ticker: BKNG), the world’s largest travel company, with a particularly dominant market share in Europe, boasting control of brands like Booking.com, Agoda, Kayak, and rentalcars.com.

The company is quickly taking market share in the world of alternative accommodations that Airbnb pioneered, so Shawn and Daniel assess to what extent Booking is a threat to their Intrinsic Value Portfolio Holding, Airbnb, and whether it’s worth investing directly in Booking, too.

In this episode, you’ll learn about how Booking created a two-sided marketplace catering to boutique hotels in Europe, providing Booking with the foundation to stack on a number of services that make traveling a more “connected” experience, including being able to book flights, experiences, accommodations, and rental cars all in one place.

They also explore whether BKNG’s stock is attractively priced, plus so much more!

On today’s We Study Billionaires episode, Clay Finck is joined by Andrew Brenton to discuss the inefficiencies in the stock market as well as his investment thesis on Floor & Decor and Kinsale Capital.

Andrew Brenton is the CEO and co-founder of Turtle Creek Asset Management. Since its inception in 1998, Turtle Creek has achieved an average annual return of 18.8% versus just 8.7% for the S&P 500. $10,000 invested in their fund at inception would have grown to over $1 million, and had that money been invested in the market, it would have been worth around $95,000.

The aerospace industry is a graveyard for compounding. It is cyclical, capital intensive, and heavily regulated. But not for everyone. Hidden in this tough ecosystem is one of the greatest compounders in market history: TransDigm.

Check out this week’s newsletter as we break down TransDigm, a rare aerospace powerhouse with one of the most reliable and high-quality business models in the market.

This week's episode of The Intrinsic Value Podcast is all about TransDigm — the aerospace supplier that turned “boring parts” into a compounding machine. Built around proprietary, often sole-source components installed across nearly every commercial and military aircraft in service, TransDigm monetizes decades of aftermarket demand through premium pricing and enviable margins.

In this episode, Daniel Mahncke and Shawn O’Malley unpack TransDigm’s private-equity-style playbook: own niche, proprietary parts with significant aftermarket exposure; run a fiercely decentralized organization; acquire bolt-ons with discipline; and keep an efficient, leveraged capital structure. It’s a model that has delivered roughly a 36% IRR to owners over more than three decades and materially outpaced aerospace peers.

They explore how TransDigm’s installed base and pricing power create a durable moat, how the commercial/defense/aftermarket mix drives resilient cash flows, and where disciplined M&A can still add runway from here. But they also tackle the hard questions investors ask: how sustainable is TransDigm’s aggressive pricing, what are the risks of government scrutiny on defense contracts, and how much runway is left?

Join Daniel Mahncke and Shawn O’Malley as they find out whether TransDigm deserves a spot in the Intrinsic Value Portfolio.
