The Q3 2026 letter is out. DM if you would like a copy.
While the headline index ground out a modest gain this quarter, the reality underneath was a "stealth bear market" marked by 5%+ Treasury yields, $100 oil, and historically poor market breadth.
In the letter, I detail how our opportunistic, multi-asset framework allowed us to navigate this narrow breadth as well as thoughts on two new positions.

Since July 2022: 1.37

Q2 2026 Investor Letter is out. DM if you would like a copy.
This past quarter felt a lot like running on a treadmill: plenty of activity, but we didn't actually go anywhere. Domestic indices were driven by an extremely narrow focus on AI and semiconductor names, largely at the expense of the rest of the economy.
However, with the Iran conflict moving to the backburner (notwithstanding the recent headlines) and oil prices cooling from their highs, I expect this extreme market concentration to finally break. As market breadth begins to widen, it creates a highly constructive environment for our multi-asset portfolio going forward.
YTD Sharpe Ratio: 1.20; since July 2022 Sharpe: 1.42

$TSLA
By fall 1983, Peter Lynch held 900 stocks at Magellan (later expanding to 1,400).
And I thought holding 40+ positions was pushing it :)
Very good history lesson. Paraphrasing the last line "The nation that control the gold controls the future" ... Trump basically called it 😄

I will keep you all updated going forward on how this goes 🫡
A contrarian pick, for AI-like return in real estate. $STWD (Starwood Property Trust) has an asymmetric setup for a possible ~50% total return over the next 12 months
If Treasury yields peaks and then declines back within the next year, then a combination of the current 13.3% div yield + rerating back to above its undepreciated book value ($19/share) results in close to 50% return for this best of breed lender.
True Multi-Cylinder Engine: Unlike pure-play lenders exposed to a single-sector, $STWD operates across commercial lending, infrastructure, and owned real estate.
Built-in Counter-Cyclical Hedge: Its Special Servicing and Investing arm actually benefits when market volatility rises, collecting servicing fees that insulate cash flows when traditional credit tightens.
Office Risk Is Overblown: U.S. office makes up less than 8% of its total asset base, with the balance anchored in residential, industrial, and essential infrastructure.
Unmatched Dividend Track Record: Management has maintained its quarterly dividend for over 17 yrs without a single cut through multiple rate cycles.
Collecting a 13.3% cash yield while waiting for a yield-driven rerating could deliver an equity-like upside with institutional downside protection.
B-A-N-A-N-A-S .... Republic
Trump: "Only I can make this promise to you: If the Republicans win the House and Senate, I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States of America for $5,000"
