𝙒𝙚𝙚𝙠𝙡𝙮 𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩 Closing Date: February 22, 2026 It was a green week for the portfolio (+1.33%), as we successfully navigated a complex market environment to beat both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100. While the Euro Stoxx 50 saw a massive surge, our focus shifted toward hedging against rising global risks. 𝙄𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙭 / 𝙋𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙛𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙤 𝙒𝙚𝙚𝙠𝙡𝙮 𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙊𝙪𝙩𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙈𝙮 𝙋𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙛𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙤 +1.33% — $SPX500 +1.15% +0.18% $NSDQ100 +1.21% +0.12% $EUSTX50 +2.49% -1.16% 🛠 𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙘 𝙋𝙞𝙫𝙤𝙩: 𝘿𝙚𝙛𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙚 & 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙤𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙚𝙨 The primary theme this week was risk management. With tensions escalating in the Middle East and the potential for military action involving Iran, I have significantly restructured the portfolio. 𝟭. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 "𝙎𝙖𝙛𝙚𝙩𝙮" 𝙃𝙚𝙙𝙜𝙚: 𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙨 I entered high-volatility positions in gold and silver miners to capture potential "flight to safety" moves: $NUGT (Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 2X ETF) / $SILJ (Amplify Junior Silver Miners ETF) Leveraged exposure to Gold and Silver miners. $RARE.L (WisdomTree Strategic Metals and Rare Earths Miners UCITS ETF - USD Acc) Strategic position in rare earth elements. Strategy: These are tactical trades. If we see fast profits in metals this week, I will look to close these deals quickly. 𝟮. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙛𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙚 𝙎𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧-𝘾𝙮𝙘𝙡𝙚 As Europe accelerates its military spending (with targets moving toward 5% of GDP), I have increased exposure to the defense sector: New Positions: $WDEF.L (WisdomTree Europe Defence UCITS ETF) $ITA (iShares US Aerospace & Defense ETF) and the newly listed $CSG.NV (Czechoslovak Group) 𝟯. 𝙏𝙚𝙘𝙝 & 𝙂𝙧𝙤𝙬𝙩𝙝 Datadog ( $DDOG (Datadog Inc) ): Added as a high-conviction long-term investment. Klarna ( $KLAR (Klarna Group plc) ): Averaged down after their recent report. While the numbers were strong, they didn't quite hit the "moonshot" expectations of the market, but the fundamentals remain solid. 🧠 𝙄𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧 𝙉𝙤𝙩𝙚: 𝙋𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙤𝙥𝙝𝙮 & 𝙋𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 I’ve noticed some copiers leaving, and I understand—the market is expensive, and "fast profits" are harder to find without taking reckless risks. My former strategy of hunting for short squeezes is still active, but patience is a position. I am not here to chase green candles for the sake of show; I am here to protect and grow capital. My own money is on the line alongside yours. I am currently evaluating moving into US Large Caps with 5x leverage if the right entry points appear. Bottom Line: We are keeping a very close eye on Iran. The strategy remains agile: looking for news-driven opportunities while maintaining a defensive core.
