April 10, 2026 🚨 OPENING UPDATE: CPI Day, Real Inflation, and the "1990 Effect" Dear investors, copiers, and followers: Markets are opening with nervousness today. In a few hours, the March inflation (CPI) data will be published, and the retail market is trembling at the possibility of a "hot" number. The Cleveland Fed projects CPI to reach 3.3% YoY, driven by recent spikes in oil prices. However, in the 'El Fortín' Control Room, we woke up with our portfolio at an all-time high of $324,013.93 USD. Why are we so calm while the rest panic? Because we do not trade based on fear; we trade based on Macroeconomic Intelligence. I want to share our analysis of the situation and why we are positioned exactly where we need to be: 1. The 1970s Mirage and Real Inflation Novice investors believe that oil will lead us into an inflationary crisis like that of the 1970s. The math says otherwise. Today, energy spending represents only 24% of personal consumption compared to 40% in that era. The true forces driving prices today are two factors in which we are already invested: Tariffs and the AI Revolution. 2. We Own the "Bottleneck" Tariffs have caused steel prices to skyrocket by +22% and aluminum by +41%. At the same time, the massive construction of Artificial Intelligence data centers is absorbing enormous amounts of aluminum, thermal components, and copper. While the market suffers from these costs, 'El Fortín' benefits from them. Our Barbell Strategy is relentless: Comfort Systems ($FIX (Comfort Systems USA Inc)): Our data center cooling infrastructure is delivering a +46.49% return. Freeport-McMoRan ($FCX (Freeport-McMoRan Inc)): Our copper monopoly shines with a +29.14% return. GE Vernova ($GEV (GE Vernova LLC)): Dominating electrification with a +23.92% return. We do not just invest in the software of the future; we own the atoms (metals and pipes) that make it possible. 3. The "1990 Effect" and Productivity In the medium term, we do not fear inflation. History teaches us that demand-driven price increases (like the AI boom today) force industries to upgrade. This technological transition will generate an explosion of productivity that, just like the Internet boom in the 90s, will ultimately suppress inflation naturally. We are playing a long-term structural game. 🛡️ Join the Vanguard of 'El Fortín' The retail market will try to guess what the Federal Reserve will do today. We do not guess. With 39 high-conviction assets, we have built a bunker designed to absorb inflationary shocks and capitalize on technological growth. Our mathematical objective remains firm: we structure this portfolio to seek a minimum annual return of 25%, with projections to maximize gains at or above 40%. If you want to stop trading with emotions and start trading with mathematical certainties, the doors are open. You can start copying our portfolio from just $200 USD. Let our institutional analysis do the heavy lifting while you protect your wealth from the daily noise. Patience, cold logic, and mathematics. Felipe Zacarías C.
