Part of this performance was absolutely due to the fact that I was degen all-in semis during the greatest semis bull run in history.

Still, I outperformed the index by over 2x this month with no(ish) leverage and over 3x YTD. A whole bunch of theses that I’ve heavily written about all started playing out at once. I am on massive hot streak of being right. Though I am bound to be disastrously wrong at some point due to probability.

My portfolio is going to get more and more unhinged as time passes, as I’m willing to risk losing a shit ton of money in exchange for an asymmetric pay-off in the event of the singularity.

Today we go into:

  • The ten positions remaining in my portfolio and updates to my theses for them

  • Which ones have gotten stronger and weaker?

  • Which ones I’ve added to or reduced

  • The two that I’m pondering an exit on and the one whose thesis died

  • The four that I’ve exited since March

  • Some hidden alpha on my positions not discussed in my other write-ups
