John Polomny — ABX investor day, path to a ten-bagger

"Abacus Global Management held an investor day… Some might say the management is too promotional, but there is a path to a ten-bagger here. They actually had the guy who wrote the book on 100-baggers give a talk at the conference."

One-line take: Following Abacus Global Management (ABX)'s 7/16/26 investor day, Polomny reiterates his bullish long-term view — he concedes the management may be "too promotional" but argues there is "a path to a ten-bagger here." He flags as telling that the company invited the author of 100 Baggers (Chris Mayer) to speak at its conference. A reiteration of the already-tracked ABX thesis, not a new position.

A jargon-free summary of the thesis behind the name — what it actually is and why he holds that view. (Plain-language companion to the table above; renders on the ticker's consolidated page.)

ABX — Abacus Global Management Positive

Abacus Global Management runs a "life settlements" business: it buys life-insurance policies from seniors who no longer want them, paying cash today for less than the policy's eventual death benefit, then collects that larger payout later — and it also manages money (asset management) around those cash flows. Polomny has tracked it as a compounder trading at a modest multiple of guided earnings, and this note doesn't change that; it's a check-in after the company's 7/16/26 investor day.

He stays positive and frames the upside boldly — "a path to a ten-bagger," meaning he thinks the stock could plausibly rise about tenfold over a long horizon. He's honest about the main knock: management comes across as "too promotional" (they talk their own book aggressively), which he flags but treats as secondary. What he finds telling is that Abacus brought in Chris Mayer — who wrote 100 Baggers, the well-known book on stocks that return 100-to-1 — to speak at the conference: a sign management is deliberately framing the company around the long-hold, very-high-return mindset. He's sharing it as a name worth doing your own work on, not calling it a sure thing.
