You need to keep your eyes on longer term industry trends and look past the hopefully minimal impact of covid. Healthcare and B2B services remain very strong industries

I found this thread really interesting and insightful, especially looking back at comments and ideas shared upwards of 3 years ago as we were emerging from COVID. While no one could have known at the time what would happen, and there certainly are some things that stuck with us post-Covid (remote work, online learning, more delivery, etc) it would be interesting to know who followed those trends to purchase their business, and how that actually has worked out. I suspect that the age old advice of buying a stable, healthy, and resilient business probably won out over trying to time the post-Covid trends, but would be curious to hear if that's the case.
