April was a phenomenal month for the portfolio. A roaring semiconductor market, fuelled by ever-rising CPU, Memory and Photonics demand propelled my core holdings such as AMD 0.00%↑ VECO 0.00%↑ and GLW 0.00%↑ to new heights. April also provided some fantastic opportunities to enter into several new stocks that are pivotal to the AI infrastructure buildout, and I’m excited to share them with you today. Over the last two months, the portfolio has gone through a metamorphosis. I have decided to eliminate all of my software and consumer cyclical exposure ( bye SHOP 0.00%↑ , ELF 0.00%↑ ZETA 0.00%↑ ) to focus strictly on compute infrastructure. I strongly believe that we are going through a paradigm shift, the likes of which is hard to understand, and I must be adequately exposed, especially at my young age, to benefit from this transformation.
Performance Summary
The portfolio is up 42.05% year-to-date, representing a gain of $15,808 vs. SPY’s 7.61%. The portfolio’s heavy concentration in AMD 0.00%↑ has driven a majority of the returns, as well as the ongoing success of VECO 0.00%↑ and GLW 0.00%↑ .
