Objective	Deterrence Portfolio focuses on companies building the technological foundation of next-generation U.S. deterrence. America’s deterrent posture has long relied on hard-power overmatch — stealth aircraft, submarines, carrier strike groups, missile defenses, and the nuclear triad — designed to make aggression too costly or likely to fail. That remains essential, but deterrence is increasingly shaped by AI compute, high-bandwidth memory, custom silicon, cloud infrastructure, data fusion, defense software, space systems, missile warning, and AI-enabled command-and-control. The strategy is built on the view that programs like Golden Dome begin as compute, data, software, and integration challenges before evolving into major weapons procurement cycles.	Project Alpha is a concentrated moonshot portfolio targeting asymmetric growth across AI infrastructure, photonics, space, advanced energy, quantum computing, physical AI, and precision medicine. Holdings are selected for disruptive technology, accelerating commercial traction, and identifiable catalysts, with position sizes reflecting conviction and execution risk.

Performance disclaimer

The performance data presented reflects the aggregated results of actual client portfolios managed by the Registered Investment Adviser (RIA), based on the trading activity in the securities contained in the relevant portfolio over the specified period. If fewer than 10 clients are invested in the portfolio, the data represents the aggregate performance of all clients following this strategy. Actual investor outcomes can vary due to factors like brokerage support for fractional shares, account size, trade timing, fees, and taxes, and past performance should not be interpreted as a guarantee of future results or typical of all portfolios. Performance figures are shown before Pilot subscription amounts. Autopilot does not charge an advisory fee.
