- Online fashion retailer, manufactures cloths in China
- $64b IPO valuation
- Net income = $2b 2023, $700m 2022, $1.1b 2021 ; Revenue = $45b 2023 ; 1.4x revenue multiple, very low!
- Secondary market activity for Shein is very low, high volatility … $80m in bids, $85m in offers (per ApeVue)
- MSCI EAFE Index once public? Headquartered in Singapore, manufactures in China, customers in US/Europe (not China)
- Great example of how large pre-IPO finally going public impact indexes … Shein would be #71 in MSCI EAFE Index between Anheuser-Busch Inbev and London Stock Exchange Group
- S&P 500 is going to look very different in 10 years time; pre-IPOs going public, new companies that haven’t even started yet … technology is moving fast

- AI large language model
- $5b valuation, +127 vs Jun 2023 round
- $35m ARR in Mar 2023, +169% vs prior year
- Strategic partnership with Oracle
- How many AI “platforms” will there be? 2 like apps; Apple and Android? OpenAI, Microsoft, Google? Apple has a competitive advantage with its access to personal data?
- AI application layer is an interesting investment opportunity but not enough companies in the market yet
- Future: proprietary data paired with AI models will drive usefulness of AI applications (Apple calls this “context”)
OpenAI wins Apple Siri deal, +14% on news
- OpenAI +14% to $110b valuation on news, last round at $86b in early Q2
- ChatGPT to power Siri
- Deal terms not disclosed
