Yesterday saw 3 companies in the high growth portfolio report. They all beat and they all raised. Really! But stock prices for Braze and Everpure were in reverse after the earnings releases and conference calls. Most of that is likely a function of buying the rumor and selling the news. Snowflake, like Datadog a few…
We added to 3 positions in the high growth portfolio and added a new company as well. These positions essentially replaced the sale we made yesterday of Nebius which raised about $78k. The purchases were as follows: 1) 250 shares of Tempus AI @ $50.39-purchase cost of $12,605 and weight of 0.55%. The Tempus purchase is obviously…
The market presented some opportunities this morning that I have reacted to. In particular I added to the position in Pagaya which got hit a bit because of the misguided proposals of President Trump regarding interest rates. In addition, Figma shares were down despite positive brokerage comments. I continue to add to the positions in…
We decided to take some profits on our Zscaler position which has risen by more than 80% so far this year and has reached a rather substantial valuation above average based on my estimates. The sale of 250 shares at $325.39 raised $81,340. We still have a position of 350 shares and that has a…
Stocks are down today-I think it is the 3rd day of consolidation out of the last 5. And it comes after last Friday’s semi-flash crash. It has left some stocks selling at levels that have made me want to buy some of the dip-even after last Friday’s experience which wasn’t much fun. I will write about…
We made some small additions to our portfolio today. In the high growth portfolio we added 100 shares of RBRK. We bought the shares at $85.44 for a cost of $8560. We now have 2800 shares in the high growth portfolio and they have a weight of 9.97%. We also bought 200 shores of Braze…
Investors remain focused on AI hardware stocks, and in general have ignored or sold high growth enterprise software stocks. This has created some valuation anomalies and we moved to bulk up positions in stocks that have been on the wrong side of investor love. How long this paradigm will last is not really knowable. My…
We made some portfolio adjustments in the high growth portfolio this morning. We sold parts of positions in Pure Storage and AppLovin. Very tactical. Pure is now up more than 45% in the last month. Deserved-probably. A bit extended. I thought so. We now have 2400 shares of Pure and that has a weight of 9.48% in…
I am getting this to subscribers a bit later than normal-last week’s post ran too long so this was not included. Then too, with the excitement with regards to Oracle and Nebius, my scheduling got severely impacted. Here is the list: the first 3 ideas are the companies that have just reported, i.e. Oracle, Nebius…
I made some changes in the high growth portfolio this morning. I sold 50 shares of the AppLovin position, reducing the holding to 225 shares. The shares have come a long way in a short time and lately appreciated on the inclusion of the shares in the high growth portfolio. We sold 50 shares at $571.99 and…
