In the Q4 2020 Investor Letter, the fund highlighted a few stocks and GoodRx Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:GDRX) is one of them. GoodRx Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:GDRX) is a healthcare company. In the last three months, GoodRx Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:GDRX) stock lost 17.1% and on March 18th it had a closing price of $36.88. Here is what the fund said:
“GoodRx Holdings, Inc. operates the nation’s largest online platform providing users free access to drug pricing information and pharmacy discounts. Its shares gave back some of their heady post-IPO run after Amazon’s announcement that it has entered the online pharmacy space. Although Amazon is a formidable rival, we believe its success is not assured as its participation is limited to the low-penetration mail order segment of the market. GoodRx has the advantages of the leading brand, best pricing, telehealth tie-in, and nascent opportunities in drug manufacturer referrals.”
