The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

A little off topic, but this is a wonderful thread. It's exactly what I hoped for from this board. (confession: I might have suggested it to manlobbi...)

More investors are familiar with US equities, and information is easier to find. For this board, it really helps to lay out the basic business case and describe the business, as many people will be unfamiliar with the firm in question. Simply posting a ticker and a "looks good here" comment is less than what most of us need.

Separately: Greggs looks like a fine firm, I'll look into what more I can learn. Is it even OK for a vegetarian to invest in a place known mainly for its sausage rolls? (just kidding, I'm fine with it)
