Skin in The Game

A management team with a lot of skin in the game will wake up every day, even on weekends, with the sole purpose of increasing the value of their company. They will do this regardless of what YOU do. If you look at the stock all day or if you are on a vacation and do not even check the portfolio makes no difference. I particularly love cases where management have have serious skin in the game, coupled with a long runway for growth, that could have the team busy for years and years to come. The best part is that the default way to capture the Alpha of such situations is to simply hold the stock as long as the story is intact and there is growth potential left.
