Copart: International Expansion Adding To Cash Pile
Copart's dominant duopoly, land ownership, and early online adoption create a durable moat and outstanding ROE, justifying its premium valuation. Valuation is reasonable relative to capital-light duopolies; Copart trades near historic low multiple, with massive cash reserves and no debt. International expansion is highly profitable, self-funding, and leverages Copart's global network, offering decades of growth potential beyond the US.

Copart: Lower In-Yard Times Will Improve Profitability (Rating Upgrade)
Title Express is reducing inventory levels and in-yard times, which will improve Copart's margins and returns on capital. The increasing cash balance generates a 4.4% yield, and I expect buybacks to accelerate if the stock falls below $40 per share. Copart's stock is trading below its fair value of $55 per share, and I forecast an 11.3% CAGR over the next decade.

However, monopolies (or near-monopolies for that matter) can also mean outsized returns for investors who can spot them.
