    37. The art of CRM turned into science

    For our thirty-seventh episode, we’re talking about the company that killed the CD-ROM. The company that looked at the old, clunky, and expensive way businesses bought software and said... [pause] "there has to be a better way." They pioneered the idea that powerful software shouldn't be a product you install, but a service you subscribe to through the internet. They are the undisputed king of their category and the company that truly brought the business world into the cloud. We are talking about Salesforce.

    When you hear the name Salesforce ($CRM), you think of the original cloud software titan, the company that pioneered the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model and became the undisputed king of Customer Relationship Management. For years, its story has been one of relentless, trailblazing growth.

    But the real story of Salesforce today is its evolution from a single product into a sprawling, integrated platform. Through massive acquisitions like Slack, MuleSoft, and Tableau, it has transformed into an all-encompassing ecosystem for digital transformation. This growth-by-acquisition strategy has made its platform incredibly sticky, but it has also drawn intense scrutiny from investors who are now demanding profitability over growth-at-any-cost. Can the company successfully pivot from its old playbook?

    We're logging into the cloud to determine if Salesforce can successfully integrate its massive empire and deliver the high-margin, profitable growth that investors now demand.

    36. When treatments means rewriting genetic code

    For our thirty-sixth episode, we're stepping into the world of cutting-edge science. We're talking about a company that is on the front lines in the fight against humanity's toughest diseases—heart disease, cancer, multiple sclerosis. It’s a business built on decades of research, billions of dollars of investment, and the hope of creating blockbuster drugs that can change the world. We are talking about the Swiss giant... Novartis.

    When you hear the name Novartis ($NVS), you probably think of a sprawling Swiss healthcare conglomerate, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world with a hand in everything from prescription drugs to generics. For years, it has been a defensive staple in portfolios, known for its broad diversification and steady dividend.

    But the real story is that Novartis has fundamentally changed. Through major strategic moves, including the recent spinoff of its Sandoz generics division, the company has transformed into a "pure-play" innovative medicines company. The new focus is laser-sharp: developing high-margin, patent-protected blockbuster drugs in cutting-edge therapeutic areas like oncology and cardiology. However, by shedding its more stable businesses, Novartis is now entirely dependent on the high-stakes, high-reward game of drug discovery.
    We're putting the pipeline under the microscope to determine if this leaner, more focused Novartis is poised for a new era of growth or if it has simply traded stability for a much riskier gamble on innovation.

    35. Making money on 50% of payments worldwide

    For our thirty-fifth episode, we're exploring a company whose logo is in billions of wallets and on millions of storefronts around the globe. It's a business that operates silently in the background of our daily lives, taking a tiny slice of trillions of dollars in global commerce. Like its famous rival, this company is not a bank... [pause] it's a technology network, a secure and vital pipeline for money that makes the modern economy possible. We are talking about Mastercard.

    When you see the Mastercard ($MA) logo on your credit or debit card, you probably think of it as a bank—a company that lends you money. The name is synonymous with the plastic in your wallet, a giant in the world of consumer credit.


    But the real story behind Mastercard is that it's not a bank at all. It takes on zero credit risk. Instead, it's a technology company that operates a massive, global payments network. Think of it as a secure toll road for money; every time you tap, swipe, or click, Mastercard's network connects your bank to the merchant's bank and collects a small, high-margin fee for facilitating the transaction. This has created a powerful duopoly with Visa, benefiting from the massive secular trend of the world moving away from cash. However, this dominance has also attracted intense regulatory scrutiny and a wave of fintech challengers.
    We're swiping right to determine if Mastercard's powerful network effect is strong enough to fend off the threats of regulation and disruption, making it a priceless addition to a growth portfolio.
