Aswath Damodaran returns to the show to discuss how companies age and why “growth for the sake of growth” can be a problem for companies as they get older. He looks at where Intel stands in the lifecycle and explains how it can return to a healthier age. He also breaks down how he thinks Starbucks and Lululemon could revamp their businesses. Finally, he explains why being geographically diversified doesn’t necessarily protect you from risk.
