    Get the Summary of Mark Mahaney's Nothing But Net in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: The Tech industry is the stock market’s hottest, most profitable sector, but it can be a roller coaster ride.

      Insights from Chapter 1

      #1

      The stock market constantly changes its mind about companies, and their stocks, and investors lose money when they get the multiple of a company’s earnings wrong.

      #2

      The market can be unpredictable, and can punish you for assuming that things will go your way. It can even punish you for picking the right stocks.

      #3

      What are the lessons to be learned from the story of Blue Apron. First, understand the setup. For a time, it was considered a sure thing. Investors were pouring money into the sector, and Blue Apron was one of the biggest beneficiaries.

      #4

      The company’s biggest problem was its low customer satisfaction rate, which was attributed to the high price of the meal kits.

      #6

      The author upgraded Zulily to a Buy after its 50 percent correction, but downgraded it to a Hold six months later after it had recovered, as the company’s customer value proposition was not robust enough to maintain its momentum.

      #9

      The author visited Zulily in 2014 and was impressed by its business model, which consisted of high gross margins and a negative working capital cycle. But the company’s growth came to a screeching halt in 2015, when its founder decided to sell the company to QVC.

      #10

      The author bought Groupon in 2011, and it sank quickly. After the company’s founder and CEO Andrew Mason was fired, he sent
