This combination will help the company exploit some key trends.

We don't see the cryptocurrency having much effect at this point.

One company was awarded a moat last month while a few others experienced fair value increases of 10% of more.

We believe companies with moats from switching costs and intangible assets are less vulnerable.

The most expensive U.S. stocks we cover aren't necessarily bad investments, but they feel a little rich today.

The overpriced company is not the only fintech firm targeting the lending space, and the banking industry is already extremely competitive.

Wide moats keep payment networks safe, but competition rages at the outskirts of the ecosystem.

We think the no-moat company will struggle as it moves into even more competitive markets, and shares look overpriced today.
