Premium contentOur PAST TOP PICK with KSPI has triggered its stop at $71. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. When combined with previous guidance, this will result in a net investment loss of 13%.
Has owned this 4 years. A wild ride. They have a dominant position in this space. Their app is amazing. 70% of Kazakstani adults use it. The country faces higher inflation and interest rates which effects their business. They just expanded to Turkey, either a positive or negative. Trades at 7x PE. Well-run. There is geopolitical risk.
Jason Del VicarioPremium contentKSPI is the first Kazakhstan based company listed in the US. It holds a 95% monopoly on online transactions akin to Amazon, Booking.com, and Visa in the region and is expanding into Turkey. A little off the normal path, which is why it trades at only 7x earnings and with a remarkable 69% ROE. Cash reserves are growing as debt is retired. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $64, looking to achieve $109 -- upside potential of 28%. Yield 1.2%
(Analysts’ price target is $109.21)Imagine....FB, AMZN, PayPal, DoorDash, pay your taxes, renew your driver's license, peer-to-peer payments....all in one app. Dominated the country. Recently expanded to the Turkish market. Trades at 7x PE. History of doing buybacks. Really well run. Yield is 8.06%.
(Analysts’ price target is $118.01)Jason Del VicarioHas owned business since 2020. "Super App" business used by 75% of Kazakhstan population. Expedia/Doordash/Payments all combined. Very customer focused. Risky country to operate in, so small portion of portfolio.
Jason Del VicarioSupper app that provides numerous services. 75% of adult population in Kazakhstan uses app. 12th largest position within fund. Some geopolitical risk. Very well run company. Safe dividend yield. Founder run and owned.
Jason Del VicarioDomiciled in Kazakhstan. Super app. Extremely high consumer engagement. Black mark against them is where they're based. Geopolitical risk, so it's a 1% conviction level. Fabulous company. (Target price in USD.) Yield is 1.66%.

We reiterate KSPI as a TOP PICK. It is the first Kazakhstan based company to trade in the US. It offers the services akin to Amazon, Visa, and Booking.com to 70% of the population there and they have just expanded into Turkey. Their dominate position allows a ROE of 61%, while it trades at 7x earnings. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $64) to $71, looking to achieve $96 -- upside potential of 21%. Yield 0%
(Analysts’ price target is $96.22)
