Ep 32 - Antonio Linares Makes the Case for Hims as a 100x — From Here
Description
In Episode 32 of Hims House, hosts Jonathan Stern and Patrick Lester (aka Bayside) are joined by Antonio Linares — early Tesla and AMD investor, and one of the biggest Hims bulls on earth. Antonio lays out his long-term thesis: Hims isn’t just a telehealth brand, it’s a platform applying the Costco algorithm to healthcare, with world-class execution, a proprietary data loop, and the potential to birth an AI-driven digital twin of the human body.
The discussion covers the explosive potential of peptides, the role of network effects and personalized manufacturing, and why traditional pharma and Wall Street still underestimate Hims’ moat. Antonio also unpacks his concentrated investment strategy and the dynamics of retail vs. institutional conviction.
