In the 1990s, a movie night at home most likely involved renting a video from Blockbuster. But with the rise of Netflix and other competitors, the video rental behemoth began losing significance.

Blockbuster eventually disappeared not with a bang but a whimper. To help businesses stay on top, Collaborative Fund partner Morgan Housel explores five “sustainable advantages” they must nurture.
