Finance Expert Needed to Explain Kaspi.kz Low Valuation vs Peers

Can someone please make the $KSPI valuation make sense to me? (6.7x P/E) Okay, I need a sanity check. I've been in a rabbit hole with Kaspi.kz ($KSPI) for an article, and my brain is starting to break. This company is an absolute monster operationally. I'm talking 50%+ ROE. I'm talking 18 straight quarters of "Rule of 40." I'm talking user engagement that rivals Facebook (68% DAU/MAU) and an avg. user making 76 transactions a MONTH. It's a better business on paper than $MELI, $SE, or $NU. And it trades at 6.7x P/E. I know the risks. I'm not blind. It's in Kazakhstan. (Tenge currency risk is real, I get it). The Turkey Gamble. (They're spending a ton of money expanding, and it could totally fail). The Geopolitics. (That 2024 short-seller report about Russia. Even though JPM/Goldman still have $100+ targets, the "stink" lingers). But... does all that add up to an 80-90% discount to its peers? Is the currency risk really so bad it wipes out 50% ROE? Is the market pricing the Turkey expansion as a 100% chance of bankruptcy? I'm struggling to see how the math works. It feels like the market is pricing in a total catastrophe for a business that is, right now, firing on all cylinders. I laid out all the numbers and the bull/bear case in my kaspi analysis. Genuinely curious if I'm just missing the obvious, massive trap here.

Athens Residents-Undiscovered Local Lore & Stories Needed

Athens lore… Tell me Athens lore that might pertain either to you, a business, or some location in town that’s significant to the city in some way. Could just be a story of when you were on campus, a location you found that was special for some reason, or something you found that felt like you shouldn’t have. Stories, lore, locations, people-I’m curious what has stood out to you in town or on the campus, especially something that remains somewhat undiscovered over the years. (Vague description, but working on a story and want real human feedback about things in town they want to know more about. More on the entertainment news side than hard politics. Unless you have those stories…)

Women Dental Practice Owners & Staff on Business Challenges & Solutions

Input Wanted — Women in Dentistry — Challenges for Practice Owners Hi all. I’m a reporter working on a piece about the challenges dentists face as business owners — with a focus on women who own practices. The feature is for a B2B magazine read by dentists and other dental professionals, so I want to make sure I capture the unique challenges that dentists face running a practice day-to-day on a deeper level — i.e. I don't want to just be regurgitating surface-level things they already know. Would also love to include meaningful solutions and tips for dealing with those challenges. For that, I need the help and insights of women in the field! A few Qs to get the conversation going: Dental school teaches clinical skills, not business management. Did your training prepare you in any way to lead a team or run a business? Most dental offices are small (under 50 staff), meaning there’s rarely much middle management. What challenges come with that? Do you feel like you’re handling HR, finance, and operations all at once? Working in a small, close team every day must have its own dynamics. How do you manage staff relationships, office politics, or conflicts? On the flip side, do you find your team feels like family? Do women face any unique challenges in leadership or ownership roles within dentistry? What keeps you up at night as a practice owner? What would make your work easier? What’s working — strategies, systems, or lessons learned that help you stay afloat? I’d also welcome input from hygienists, assistants, and office managers who’ve seen these dynamics up close. I’m especially interested in concrete examples, solutions, or lessons learned. THANK YOU!

Etiquette Experts on Dinner Party Faux Pas for Southern Living

For Southern Living, I’m working on a story about rude dinner party behaviors. Looking for comments from etiquette experts: - What’s the most common faux pas guests make at dinner parties? - How do etiquette rules evolve with the times — for example, are things like arriving fashionably late or taking photos at the table still considered rude? - What should a good guest always do before leaving a dinner party — and what’s something most people forget to do that makes a lasting impression? - Should you always bring a gift for the host? - Is there a polite way to handle it if someone brings up politics, diets, or other controversial topics at the table? - And for hosts, what are the rudest behaviors they should avoid themselves — things guests might silently judge?

UMass Students Needed for Dating & Politics Interviews

Dating at UMass & Political Affiliations- Article for my journalism class Hi!! I am trying to come up with some ideas of what to write about for a story in my journalism class. I thought that maybe interviewing a few students about their dating experiences and how politics can play a role in these relationships might be interesting, especially since there is a pretty big political divide between young men and women. If anyone has any insight at all or has had an interesting experience relating to this topic (and would be comfortable with being interviewed on the record), it would be incredibly helpful!!!

Ladakh Food System Voices for Culture & Politics Feature

I'm a hobbyist food writer who wants to create awareness about Ladakh's issues and I'm looking to interview people part of the food system in Ladakh - from farmers to home cooks. I do food writing as a hobby and I usually write about the role that food plays in culture and politics in India. I've lately been reading about Ladkah's protests and why they're happening, and I would like to help raise awareness about the issues Ladakh is facing from the perspective of food systems. From research, I've learned that Ladakh has an extremely unique culture owing to its unique land, ecology, and people. The fact that Ladakhi people have lost their decision-making abilities about their land as a result of the revoking of Article 370 means Ladakhi culture is at risk - including its cuisine and its food systems. From what is grown to what is consumed, everything could change and Ladakhi culture could be lost. This is my learning based on my research. I would love to speak with people in Ladakh who are part of the food system and who can help me better understand and go deeper on what's happening and what the impact could be. I would also love to understand if a piece like this would actually help - in whatever small way. I don't do this for a living and I wouldn't earn anything from it - whatever I do (if this ever get published by a trusted media outlet), would go towards the Ladakhi people. Thank you.

I am an editorial intern for Transitions Online, a media organization based in Prague that focuses on life, politics and culture in Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe.

Disabled Gamers’ Community Stories for Enable Magazine Feature

Press request – gaming and community Hey all, I wouldn't usually post this sort of request on Reddit, but I know it's a great place to find the folk I'm looking for. I'm the editor of the national disability magazine www.enablemagazine.co.uk. We have features that amplify disabled people's voices and cover all sorts of issues, from celebrity interviews to finances, politics, products, travel... This issue (November/December) I'm writing a piece on hobbies and gaming, and how these can bring disabled people together and help create a community/friendships. I'd love to chat with anyone who's willing (email, voicenotes, videocall, online chat – whatever's most accessible for you) about your experiences in this area. Alternatively, you're welcome to reply to the following questions with your experiences – I will quote in the article anonymously or your username if that works for you. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! Cheers, Melissa QUESTIONS: What first attracted you to this hobby or gaming community? Was there a particular moment or person that drew you in? How easy or difficult was it to get started, and what helped you stick with it? What makes this hobby or online space feel welcoming or accessible for you as a disabled person? In what ways has being part of this community improved your day-to-day life — whether socially, emotionally, or practically? Have you built any meaningful friendships or support networks through this hobby or game? Could you share a story that stands out? Do you feel the connections you’ve made online are different from, or similar to, offline friendships? What advice would you give to another disabled person who might feel hesitant about joining a gaming or hobby community? If you could change one thing to make these communities even more inclusive and accessible, what would it be? disabledgaming gamers r/disabledgamers r/DisabledPeopleUK

Noncitizen NYC Residents Barred from Voting for Bolts Feature

Hi all, longtime NYC reporter here covering mostly immigration and politics. Working on a piece for the online magazine Bolts (boltsmag.org) broadly about the would-be voters who were planning on or enthusiastic about voting in the upcoming November election (or the June primary) before the State Court of Appeals struck down the city's noncitizen voting law. Working theory here is that a lot of folks would be motivated to turn out given that the city's sanctuary provisions are now a major issue in the election, plus Mamdani's primary campaign seems to have activated a number of new voters itself, which I think could have included a number of longtime noncitizen residents had that law remained in place. Noncitizens are a huge chunk of the city's population, around 1.8 million people, mostly adults, effectively excluded from the electoral process. In that vein, I'm hoping to chat with some folks who wanted to vote but can't anymore as a result of the ruling. This is a discussion forum so I'm sure folks will have plenty to say on the merits of the law and the ruling here, which is great, but also hoping to separately speak to individual people at some length to get a sense of these "missing" voters. If that's you, feel free to get in touch and I can answer any questions about the specifics of the story. Thanks, all.

Ford Truck Owners in Pa for Philadelphia Inquirer Politics Story

I got a database of every registered car in the state. Ford trucks are incredibly popular in Pa, particularly once you get outside the cities. I’m a reporter for the Philadelphia Inquirer and I’m working on a story about the connection between what we drive and our politics. Clearly, practicality is one big reason - harder to park a big pickup on a city street. Cost is another. A new truck is more than a Honda Civic, for example. But also brands are choices. I’d like to hear from Ford truck owners about why you have one and what made you buy it. I’m curious if you feel people are sometimes judging you by your truck. Or maybe that’s exactly what you want, which I want to hear about too. If I can call you, shoot me a direct message with a number and best time to talk. Hope this is ok within community guidelines. Appreciate it.

Female Immigrant Gun Owners in DC VA MD or CA for Feature Story

Hi everyone — I’m a journalist working on a feature story about legal immigrant gun owners in America.

If you’re open to talking (even anonymously), please message me. If you're curious about my full name or who I'm writing for, feel free to DM me. Thanks for considering — and feel free to share or tag someone you know.

Lana Del Rey Fans & Experts on Political Themes for TikTok LA Story

I’m working on a piece for Tiktok exploring the album’s political themes as well as Lana’s career and its ties to Los Angeles and Latin culture. I wanted to gather some thoughts from other fans about how they interpret, relate to, or draw hope from this album. I also want some advice on how to approach this topic. I do intend to tie this into why, i feel, it makes no sense how extreme both ends of the audience is on this issue. why can she either do no wrong or is an evil culture vulture? i would hope some nuanced conversations could happen because she is a highly influential public figure who hasnt shied away from politics. criticism isnt an excuse to stay quiet. if that was the case, everyone would stop sharing anything. it’s curious to me how people dismiss her as a pop star when it comes to politics but want to claim her as so much more in surface level discussions. i saw a particular tiktok that i honestly felt was in response to a lot of the videos i’ve made about her politics (@/softlikefire) . this person jumped through ten million hoops trying to say she hasnt said anything because Lasso is going to be the political statement of the century😭 they were breaking down lyrics of Lust for Life as if fans like us didn’t hear and understand those very basic and overtly political lyrics. stitches off of course. rather than respond directly anyways, since that isnt the premise of my page or my beliefs, this is the subject i want to approach - artists as activists. hear this perspective from rachel brosnan, attached. its my perspective as well. pleasee reach out to me if you have any thoughts or just wanna talk!!

Sri Lanka Contributor on Economy & China-India Ties for Geopolitics Blog

Ayubowan everyone, I am from India and blog on Indian national security and the geopolitics of the region. I have done business with Sri Lanka years ago and visited several times as a tourist, with fond memories. I am looking for someone from Sri Lanka to contribute an article for my blog on the current economic situation (after the economic crisis), or politics, with regard to ties with both China an India. It may be an opportunity for an aspiring writer to be seen by my readers. I have 11,000 active readers across 50 countries. I am retired and independent. My blog is free and non commercial. I do not discuss religion or take sides with politics. My views are fact based and I try to provide a view not covered in the mainstream media. I would love to have a voice from Sri Lanka, hence this post. I have not so far used any outside writer, but I lack the ability to cover Sri Lanka on my own, hence this post. I cannot pay for an article, as this is non commercial, but it is an opportunity for a Sri Lankan view to be read by a new audience. A link to my blog: https://rpdeans.blogspot.com/
