⚡ 𝗧𝗟;𝗗𝗥 (𝗧𝗼𝗼 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴; 𝗗𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱) 📉 Market Down, But No Panic: We’re holding up better than most because we aren’t overexposed to Mag 7, but our main theses haven’t played out yet—which means there’s still upside ahead. 🙏 Special Thanks to @felixfallax / @TheMoodyBlue Huge appreciation for his R&D on copy trading. His work has deep insights into performance breakdowns—which is exactly how I built my strategy. 💰 Selling $VSH (Vishay Intertechnology Inc) for $ACMR (ACM Research Inc) Vishay was a good play, but ACMR now has a better risk-reward setup with deep value potential. _______________________________________________________________ 📉 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻… 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗪𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗰? Markets are down a lot. Crypto? Down even more. Luckily, we’re actually up… albeit mildly. A big reason for this? We’ve avoided the Mag 7 for over two years now. Sure, that decision hurt our returns in the past two years, but it’s also why we aren’t taking a massive hit now. 💡 The lesson here? ✅ Avoiding large drawdowns is often about discipline and not following the crowd. ✅ Understand where you’re exposed so you don’t get blindsided. We talked about this back in 2023—see our Investor Update Call—and it’s now playing out exactly as expected. A lot of money can be saved simply by avoiding insanity. That said, none of our main theses have actually played out yet: ❌ $ETH (Ethereum) hasn’t gained as much as Bitcoin. ❌ Chinese stocks (except for a small 5% of our positions) have underperformed. ❌ Shipping has yet to take off. ❌ Value plays like Valaris ($VAL) have struggled. Yet, we’re still above water. Why? Because our uncorrelated bets have balanced each other out in this tough market. 💰 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝗮𝗻𝗱 & Adding to Positions We also have a stockpile of cash, and I’m looking to add to existing positions. But it’s a balancing act—I want to increase exposure without over-saturating in any one factor or company. 💡 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝗽𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲? If our theses start playing out, there’s still plenty of room for gains. As Bullaware put it: "Underperformance in a toppish market, but when the market rolls over, we made a bit of money." That’s exactly what’s happening. 💡 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝗽𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲? 𝗜𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀. _______________________________________________________________ 🙏 𝗔 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀 & 𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗦𝗼𝗼𝗻 We need to give huge recognition to YouTuber, content creator, and all-around great guy @felixfallax / @TheMoodyBlue . 🎥 Felix has been making amazing content for years on eToro but hasn’t gotten the recognition (or economic rewards) he deserves—I really wish he did. He just posted what might be his last video for now here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFxpa9rPuiM For those who don’t know, he’s basically been doing R&D for copiers on how to be successful at copy trading. My Favorite Takeaways from His Work: ❌ Don’t chase past performance—performance chasing never works. ❌ Don’t fall for BS marketing like “dividend portfolio” when you're losing money. ❌ PI’s, don’t lie in your freaking bio! 🤦 Andrew, if you’re reading this—thank you for everything. We hope to see you back soon. 💡 This is exactly how I started formulating my strategy. I blew up accounts, and that forced me to break down performance into quantifiable factors—which is why I now have a robust system that helps us navigate tough markets. Maybe this is a path for you? Becoming a PI (Popular Investor) on eToro could be an option. What you’ve learned is extremely valuable—just hard to turn into a business, in my opinion. _______________________________________________________________ 💰 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗮𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗮 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗖𝗠𝗥 Valuations for ACMR are just too good at this point. 🔍 Why the switch? Vishay was a solid play on AI & hardware, but despite positive tailwinds, valuations haven’t improved. ACMR offers a more asymmetric risk-reward trade-off. I’ll write more on this soon, but there’s a very interesting opportunity developing here.
