a. Portfolio & Performance Updates

Year-to-date Performance:

b. Today's Changes

I boosted my Zscaler stake by 18% today. I continue to think this is a high-quality and durable compounder with plenty of room for operating leverage. I think AI will be a net accelerant for their broad security platform and they're already off to a good start there. Agents will not remove the need for sound security platforms like this one... they will augment these platforms and their value. That's how I think. And? The valuation continues to get cheaper while the company keeps performing. At 36x forward FCF and ~24% multi-year FCF growth, I am ready to add another piece. I will continue to slowly inch in if the company keeps performing and the name gets cheaper.

c. Portfolio Management Strategy

*the order of the names in these lists below is meaningless.

My holdings that are performing & compellingly priced where I'd accumulate into modest multiple contraction:

  • Amazon

  • Meta

  • Mercado Libre

  • Zscaler

  • DraftKings

  • Starbucks

  • On

  • ServiceNow

  • Nu

  • Coupang

  • Axon

My holdings that are performing & expensive where I'd accumulate into meaningful multiple contraction:

  • SoFi

  • Lemonade

  • Shopify

  • Cava

  • I like what I own in Uber right now. I want it to be sized right where it is. That balances my optimism in their AV positioning with my respect for all the uncertainty and how rapidly things are evolving.

  • Alphabet

My hot seat – holdings that are NOT performing & need to do better if I'm going to stick around:

  • The Trade Desk

Watch List:

  • CrowdStrike (would love to re-enter at some point)

  • Sea Limited
