Copart: A Wonderful Company At A Wonderful Price

After reaching an all-time high of $64.38 per share in November 2024, Copart is currently caught in a ~50% drawdown. This is one of the largest pullbacks since the company's initial public offering in March 1994 and of similar size to what happened following the 2008 global financial crisis. Over the long term, I expect total loss frequency to continue its inexorable rise and to eventually surpass 30%, an incredible change versus the 4% recorded in the early 1980s.
