Happy Hump Day to all

All comments appreciated.

I have, and will again be, wrong at Scale.

QRTEP is in a very small part of the Total Portfolio.

IF

This portion of the Total Portfolio went to ZERO it changes nothing.

IF

I get Lucky and make a run it will provide a slight enhancement.

QRTEP is not a short or medium time frame trade for me..
I plan to hold until March 2031 when the Preferred Stock is mandated to be redeemed at $100/sh.

My best guess...

The FCF burned by he now sold off Zulilly division was larger than commonly estimated....

Zulilly was "sold" in May for future considerations.
There was $80,000,000 in Zulilly debt paid off.
Zulilly is 100% off the books.

There was a hint at that FCF burn in the last Q reported August 4th.

We will have more info when the current Q reports.

I remain committed to DRIP and buying QRTEP this 4th calendar Q.

Based on the upcoming Q report I will decide to The Boat is loaded at 2X or proceed to 3X.
I will most likely evaluate on a Q X Q basis.
I do not need to proceed directly to 3X.
If I have a "better" opportunity I might stop at 2X or 2.25X

From my perspective...
The Common needs a successful QURATE turnaround.
By that I mean a return to profitable growth.

THAT will push the common price to $3 and above where I think the common is buyable again.
THAT will take at least 4 more Q's, probably 8.

The Preferred just needs the business to muddle through.

Cheers,
60
