Alluvium Asset Management's Conventum – Alluvium Global Fund disclosed a new position in Copart, highlighting the company’s scale as an online vehicle auction platform and strong historical growth and returns. The fund noted Copart operates in a duopoly with limited domestic growth potential and identified two key risks: declining accident rates from autonomous driving and an increasing share of collisions classified as total losses. Despite these structural risks, Alluvium found valuation and financial metrics compelling enough to initiate the position. » Mais em finance.yahoo.com
