4. Term Of The Day 📚
Operating Leverage
📖Definition: The degree to which a company uses fixed costs in its cost structure, causing profits to change more than proportionally when sales change
📊Why it matters: Businesses with high operating leverage can see profits surge when revenue grows, but also get hit harder when sales dip—so it’s key for evaluating risk and earnings volatility.
💡Example: A software company with big upfront development costs but very low cost per additional user has high operating leverage—once fixed costs are covered, most new subscription revenue flows straight into profit
Get home insurance that protects what you need
Standard home insurance doesn’t cover everything—floods, earthquakes, or coverage for valuable items like jewelry and art often require separate policies or endorsements. Switching over to a more customizable policy ensures you’re paying for what you really need. Use Money’s home insurance tool to find the right coverage for you.
5. Song Of The Day 🎧
🎧Song: “Something in the Orange” by Zach Bryan
Genre: Country
Why it hits: Stripped-back vocals and vivid storytelling that feel raw and honest—perfect for a sunrise drive or a reflective solo work session.
