| Objective | Hyperscalers are spending $392B in 2026 to build AI infrastructure. This portfolio owns the companies supplying the GPU compute, power, and data center capacity that make it possible. The anchor positions are NBIS and CRWV. Combined they hold over $140B in contracted HPC revenue against a market cap that implies a fraction of that value. The remainder of the portfolio is sized by AI revenue conversion progress, contracted megawatts, and power cost efficiency. The thesis is simple: contracted hyperscaler revenue converts to operating run-rate, the market re-rates these names from speculative to infrastructure, and the multiple expansion does the work. | My flagship strategy. This fund started as an ultra high-risk bet: all in on memory stocks in February. After that call delivered more than a double in 6 months, I diversified the winnings into something I could think more long term with: a balanced flagship combining the biggest winners of the AI buildout with high-quality compounders across other sectors like gaming, autonomy, healthcare, power grids, and defense. Roughly half sits in mega-cap tech platforms, Meta, Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, Nvidia. Several trade at their cheapest multiples in years despite dominant positions and the cash flows funding the entire AI buildout. Around that core are steadier winners in other pockets of the economy: Berkshire, Lilly, Lockheed, AEP, Sony for ballast, but clear growth stories from trends like missile restocking ($LMT), GTA VI ($SONY), and GLP-1 ($LLY). But there's also a high torque, asymmetric sleeve in AI exposure in names like Lumentum, Credo, and Nebius, where optical interconnect, AI power demand, and neocloud capacity carry enormous upside. |
