š¢ Announcement #2:
Time to say more:
Iāve been working on something quietly these past two months. Not a post. Not a portfolio. A thesis.
It started with a question I couldnāt shake: how do you spot the next Amazon or Nvidia before they blow up? Not once they hit every screen, but when theyāre still invisible to the crowd ā just a blip, just a weird outlier on a messy spreadsheet.
So I started digging. Testing. Connecting dots across time, across companies, across market cycles. I wasnāt looking for a narrative ā I was looking for a structure, a template. A kind of fingerprint. And little by little, something started to emerge.
Today, for the first time, Iām showing you what it looks like.
That orange line in the chart? Thatās not the S&P 500 (in yellow). Thatās what Iāve started to call the āFCC Compositeā ā a simulation based on the companies that wouldāve matched this thesis over the past decade.
10x outperformance.
Not with leverage.
Not with timing.
Just with selection.
Now ā Iām not launching anything today. Not yet. Iām still pressure-testing the model, fine-tuning it, making sure itās not just curve-fitting dressed in shiny metrics. But the early real-time results? Theyāre encouraging. Some names are already up +22%, +28%, even +30% since being flagged. And I didnāt even publish them yet..
So yes ā this might be something big. For me, and for this newsletter.
In the coming weeks, Iāll probably launch a first iteration. It wonāt be open to everyone. There will be a limited number of seats as I said, because I want this to be built slowly, with intention ā not as a hype train. Those who checked my profile recently spotted the new newsletter; there is nothing on it, yet.
And when it drops, Iāll also start sharing a bit more about me. Why I care about this. Why I built it in the first place. Yes, the mask might vanish. If that sounds like something you want to be part of ā Iād suggest you subscribe now. Or maybe stay tuned.
Because when it goes live, it wonāt stay quiet for long. 100% serious.
Anyway, this week in the vault:
š§æ Buys This Week / Next Week
Again guys, nothing this week but Monday hereās what Iāll buy.
(Buy Monday) Lemonade ($LMND)
Still super asymmetric at these levels. $1.2B market cap for a business sitting on $1.2B in cash and equivalents, with 20%+ gross loss ratio improvement YoY. AI-native infra finally scaling ā renters profitable, pet and life not far behind. Theyāre not playing Wall Streetās game, but theyāre still in it. Buying 10 shares Monday.
