Coliseum’s $106M Bet on NCR Atleos: A Desperate Gamble or Divine Providence?

The third quarter saw Coliseum’s hands tremble toward NCR Atleos, their fingers closing around 2.7 million shares. The gesture was not idle; it was a declaration, a testament to the fund’s conviction-or perhaps, a confession of desperation.

Their rise, and Buffett’s interest, might seem like a gamble-yet in the depths of their strength lies a story of resilience that ordinary workers can appreciate.

Anchorage’s $58M Gamble on GBTG: A Tale of Risk and Resilience

GBTG’s balance sheet whispers contradictions: $4.1 billion in market capitalization buoyed by $2.5 billion in revenue, yet net income limps at a threadbare $10 million. Its platform, a labyrinth of algorithms and travel logistics, claims to “unleash unrivaled choice” for enterprise clients. But behind the polished veneer, one wonders whose choices are truly honored – the overworked procurement manager? The gig-economy road warrior nursing a fifth airport coffee?
