Zach Cohen breaks down the real journey to landing a grad role at a top consulting firm - and it's not what you think. In this episode: How he got rejected 60 times (and why that was the win) The ATS hacks that actually work (buzzwords, formatting, structure) The 15-minute networking strategy that changes everything How to tailor your CV in 2-5 minutes per application What interviewers actually hire for (it's not just credentials) Why rejection is redirection (and how to use it) Plus: Zach's launching an app to solve the one thing every grad gets wrong—organization in their job search.

M&A REPORT

Research Note NVDA AVGO

NVIDIA and Broadcom sit at opposite ends of the same buildout. One sells merchant compute to the whole market on the CUDA stack; the other designs custom accelerators for a handful of hyperscalers. This note explains why CIBFS has taken both, weighted 75/25 toward NVIDIA. The weighting is not defended on growth. Broadcom's guided quarter implies faster revenue growth than NVIDIA's, and the note retires that argument on its own page rather than leave a reader to find it. What remains is a twelve-point gap in GAAP operating margin on identical gross margins, a net cash balance sheet against a leveraged one, and a lower multiple once both companies are placed on the same accounting basis. A second check also went against us. The filings show NVIDIA is marginally more customer-concentrated than the other, so the breadth-of-demand argument was rewritten rather than set aside. Every multiple is derived from company guidance, with the workings shown. Paper portfolio; not investment advice. Research by Amanda Abreu Gray, Investment Analyst. Published 7 September 2026.

Capitalising on the Iran Oil Supply Shock - British Petroleum PLC Stock Pitch

A BUY recommendation on British Petroleum (LSE: BP) framed around the 2026 Iran oil supply shock. The pitch argues that BP is well-positioned to benefit from elevated and sustained crude prices, drawing on the supply disruption thesis to support the entry case. Covers the macro setup, BP's operational leverage to higher oil, and the investment rationale behind the buy call.
