What We Can Take Away from Grinding Away in Sports: Applying Lessons from Sports to Investing
How is navigating the unpredictable highs and lows of the stock market just like enduring a long, grueling competitive season in sports? It turns out, surviving both requires the exact same mental stamina. In this short, focused episode, we share an excerpt from Starvine Capital's H2 2025 Investment Commentary: "What We Can Take Away from Grinding Away in Sports: Applying Lessons from Sports to Investing." While sports and investing might seem like entirely different worlds, the mental frameworks required to succeed in both are strikingly similar. Drawing from sports psychology, iconic athletes, and collegiate wrestling experience, this episode breaks down five powerful behavioral lessons that every long-term investor needs to master. In this episode, you’ll learn about: Focusing on the Process, Not the Outcome Standing Out to Excel Handling Inevitable Setbacks The Circle of Competence & "Transfer" Absolute vs. Relative Progress Whether you are a seasoned investor or just starting to build your wealth, this episode offers an anecdotal yet highly substantive look at the mental stamina required to win the long game.

What I Learned About Investing From Darwin - Part 3: Don't Be Lazy - Be Very Lazy
In this episode of Value Investing: The Starvine Way, we wrap up our three-part deep dive into Pulak Prasad’s "What I Learned About Investing from Darwin" — and tackle the most counterintuitive pillar of his philosophy: “Don’t be lazy… be very lazy.” At first glance, that sounds like standard investing advice: trade less, be patient, let compounding work. But Prasad goes much deeper. Drawing on evolutionary biology, punctuated equilibrium, and decades of real-world investing results, he explains why short-term volatility is often meaningless — and how inactivity, when applied to the right businesses, becomes a powerful competitive advantage. In this episode, we explore: Why evolution (and business) changes rapidly in the short term but stabilizes over long periods The Grant–Kurtén Principle of Investing (GKPI) — using short-term “shocks” to buy, not sell Real case studies like WNS, Thermax, and Page Industries that show how rare buying windows drive outsized returns Why Prasad almost never sells — and the only three reasons he ever does How most wealth is created by a tiny handful of companies, held for very long periods Why focusing on IRR often sabotages true multi-baggers How boredom, patience, and doing nothing separate great investors from merely smart ones We also cover why: Creative destruction is slower than most people think Stock price movement is not the same thing as business change The biggest gains happen on a tiny fraction of trading days — and you only capture them if you stay invested I’ll also share where my own approach slightly differs when managing real client portfolios — especially around valuation and concentration risk — while still embracing the core lesson: great businesses deserve time, not tinkering. This episode is about resisting the urge to act, tuning out noise, and letting compounding quietly do its work — even when it feels uncomfortable, boring, or downright wrong. If you’ve ever: Sold too early Traded too much Or confused price movement with business reality …this one’s for you.

What I Learned About Investing From Darwin - Part 2: Buy High Quality at a Fair Price
In this episode, we keep unpacking Pulak Prasad’s What I Learned About Investing from Darwin and move from pure defense to intelligent offense. We recap the non-negotiables from Part 1 (what not to buy), then show how to narrow thousands of stocks to a tight focus list using one “Moneyball” metric: ROCE (Return on Capital Employed). We compare Costco vs. Tiffany to show why operating margin can mislead while ROCE reveals the real engine. From there, we layer on robustness—the business equivalent of a roll cage—using traits like excess cash, fragmented customers/suppliers, high entry barriers, stable management, and slow-changing industries. Real-world case studies (Havells, Page Industries, Mindtree) illustrate how high-ROCE, robust companies survive hits, compound cash, and seize opportunity when others can’t. We also tackle convergence (why certain business models win across time/geographies and others chronically destroy capital) and “Darwin Ate My DCF” (ditch false precision, value what’s proven). Finally, we break the Pavlovian habit of reacting to macro headlines and hot themes, and double down on the only variable we truly control: entry price. Key Takeaways Slash the universe first: avoid crooks, turnarounds, heavy debt, serial acquirers, fast-changing industries, and misaligned owners. Use ROCE as the first filter; it proxies for great ops, smart capital allocation, and real moats. Favor robust businesses that can take a punch—and convergent models that win repeatedly. Price is the lever. Patience is the edge. Forecast less; observe more. Next up (Part 3): “Don’t be Lazy—Be Very Lazy.” Why inactivity, focus lists, and fat-pitch timing turn good process into great compounding.
