Now at $96, market cap $27bn. That is absolutely nuts, but what would I know, for a company with one product and also a very easily replicated model with tonnes of competition.

Their customers are so into it now it's a bit of a cult. It's a gym replacement rather than competing with another bike, it's the online classes that are selling the product. You know how much a spinning class in New York or San Francisco costs? $34 a pop - addd more if you want to rent the cycling shoes. The average user of a Peloton does through 24 classes a month. It's not that expensive when you run the numbers. I won't be buying one, but if 3 classes a month in your gym costs $400 - it's easy to see why you'd get yourself a bike and subscription.

Think peloton bike is 2k+!!Road cyclists wouldn't pay that on a stationary bike and most gym users would be slow to pay that much from the start... There's plenty of competition such as Zwift which provides online community along with workouts and gaming element yet is only 14 euro per month and you can set it up with any bike and smart trainer...which makes them mobile and take up less space...It's marketing isn't always on point either None of it makes sense really

frebel wrote: » Exactly... so they would generally spend their 2k on a road bike/ tt bike/ winter bike/ competition bike ahead of a stationary bike... Either way, if there are cyclists who would do that, I wouldn't have thought there would be enough numbers doing so to make company so successful...
ChuckieEgg wrote: » I believe Peloton has a market within the Gyms too. As Frebel was alluding to, not everyone can afford or has the space for there own Pton Bike. Yet for a Gym the Peloton package could replace instructors within the Gym. I think the biggest threat to them is from the likes of Apple and Amazon. As an investment, it has gotten overheated this year and may drop back a bit for a buying opportunity

There were about 40 on board and I expect the same going back. The return flight was changed twice due to cancellations. This is a route that would have 3/4 daily flights and always fairly full in normal times. Ryanair have cash to ride this out and are best positioned to respond to any increase in demand but their business is suffering and only the above is keeping the share price afloat
