He explains why fundamentally strong businesses with good products, growth potential, and solid operating margins make attractive public companies.Patrick also highlights why certain asset-heavy sectors — such as banks, insurance companies, real estate, or asset-based businesses — may not be as well-suited to SPAC structures, where dilution from the sponsor promote could reduce value.
