Portfolio monitoring

Stage 06 of 06

What you own, revalued as the market moves, on your screen, not in someone else's offer.

Companies you hold and targets you are tracking sit in one table with the live valuation delta since the last run. When sector multiples move, you find out from your own portfolio rather than from a buyer who noticed first.

01 · What it does

Most private holdings are valued once, at the moment somebody needs a number, a raise, a sale, a tax event. Between those moments the figure in the spreadsheet is whatever it was the last time it mattered, which can be years ago and several multiple cycles out of date.

Because the documents and the valuation are already in place, re-running is cheap.

So a holding can be priced continuously instead of episodically, and the movement itself becomes information.

  • Held and watched together

    A target you have been tracking for a year and a company you already own are the same kind of object here, priced the same way.

  • The delta is the signal

    The change since the last run, and what drove it, the business's own numbers, or the multiples its sector is trading at.

  • Ready when you need it

    When a buyer calls, a lender asks, or an opportunity opens, the valuation is current rather than something that has to be commissioned.

Illustrative

Invented companies. The delta is the move in value since the previous run. Two positions: an owned retail business valued at $4.60M, up 4.2 percent since its last run seven days ago, and a transportation target valued at $2.85M, down 1.8 percent since twenty-one days ago.

03 · Why it compounds

The second valuation costs almost nothing.

The expensive part of a valuation is assembling and checking the inputs. That work is already done and stored, so a re-run months later reads the same documents, adds whatever is new, and prices against fresher comparable evidence than the last one used.

For an owner, that turns valuation from a one-off purchase into a standing view of the thing they have built. For an investor, it turns a watchlist into something with prices attached.
