Thanks for write up mate.

Dont think Chewy competes in UK yet (vs what table from Gemini is saying). Why not buy Chewy instead? Trades like 7-8x fwd EV/EBITDA and #1 specialty leader in the space (minus AMZN ofc); got no physical footprint exposure to worry about like PETS; driving better group ROIC via diversifying into health (ie vet clinics)... Wayfair trades at ~15x and probs at worse cash conversion cycle + ROIC. Just food for thought. Thanks

Thanks for highlighting!

I prioritised PETS. Chewy and Wayfair have somewhat high short interest: 12% and 14%.

That said, they look interesting too. Just need more work on understanding the short sellers' case and making sure I'm not missing anything important.
