That's one heck of an analysis. Super stuff.

Awesome analysis, but I just wanted to pointed out that “that request to track all activity across other apps and websites” will probably not be a source of concern, as it will gradually be requested by most apps due to Apple’s recent privacy updates (App Tracking Transparency).

Great article, thank you. Is it possible to get exposure somehow to SheIn and TikTok for a small-fry retail investor?

Hi, Wondering if you could share where you get all your statistics from? I've only just discovered your blog so please accept my lack of knowledge about your background and how you do what you do.

A spectacular and exhaustive analysis! There is little left to add. Perhaps it is worth emphasizing the importance of being prepared to seize the opportunities that, in this case, arose from the pandemic and the subsequent lockdown.

Sorry, but Shein has been known (by many women who shop) for ages. This is one of the key reasons I believe it was slow to be recognised and analysed...The same reason that women tech founders attract only 2% of the private equity/venture money out there. We women are half the world but still too much of an afterthought in business and life.... The irony of Shein is its success is built on top of hugely appalling working conditions for the women making the $3 bikinis!
