Welcome back to Weekly Picks, where each week our analysts hand pick their favourite Narratives from the community (  what is a Narrative? ).

This week’s picks cover:

  • 📈 Why PINS could be positioned to surge from multiple tailwinds
  • 💸 How Brambles can continue delivering as a steady compounder
  • ⚖️ Why STG faces headwinds, but might still represent good value and yield

💡 Why we like it: This thesis nails Pinterest’s unique position: high-intent users, strong ad tailwinds, and platform leverage. The author blends credible financial projections with a clear upside case, making the risk/reward feel both asymmetric and grounded.

💡 Why we like it: It’s a clear-eyed view of a durable, cash-generative business that wins by doing the basics exceptionally well. It provides a strong case for Brambles as a compounder with ESG tailwinds, stable income, and operational leverage. While trading around fair value, the 3.4% yield from dividends and buybacks would add nicely to the estimated share price growth. 

💡 Why we like it: This is a grounded breakdown of a company in transition. It’s clear about where the cracks are (organic sales, margins) but also where there’s still hope (cash flow, new products). The author lays it out without spin, giving investors what they need to assess the risk.
