Kevin O'Leary credits women entrepreneurs for majority of Shark Tank returns, favors steady cash flow over growth speed

Kevin O'Leary says about 70% of his Shark Tank hit deals involve businesses run by women, and over 18 years the majority of his returns have come from companies founded by women. He credits their discipline on risk and targets, but favors them because steady monthly distributions return capital faster than rapid growth, as most small companies will never go public.
