In the Q2 2021 Investor Letter, the fund highlighted a few stocks and SoFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:SOFI) is one of them. SoFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:SOFI) is an online personal finance company. In the last three months, SoFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock lost 28%. Here is what the fund said:
“We entered SoFi Technologies Inc. (SOFI) on a private investment and public equity (PIPE) deal earlier this year, and it closed in the quarter. SoFi is a “fin-tech” company offering borrowing, saving, spending and investing offerings. The company has no brick and mortar locations allowing them certain efficiencies. SoFi reinvests savings back into the business by providing customers with higher interest rates on deposits and lower loan rates. It uses data to improve loss ratios and reduce risk.
SoFi is led by Anthony Noto who we’ve known for many years. Most recently he served as Twitter’s CFO and worked at Goldman Sachs prior to that. He’s a thoughtful executive that understands how to drive business value. Overtime, they think they can continue to gain market share from traditional players in the space. We think there’s significant potential in SoFi.”
