Week 3 – Gains & Tweaks
Current Holdings
Intel (INTC) is still the standout, sitting at a +170.54% gain.
POET Tech has also made a huge recovery, jumping to +83.83%.
Micron (MU) is another heavy hitter at +74.79%, while Tesla has finally found its footing and is now up +23.84%.
On the downside, Hims & Hers (HIMS) continues to be the main laggard at -23.24%.
Earnings & News Watch
The Foundry Factor: Intel’s lead is largely driven by its 14A process gaining interest from big tech players looking for alternatives to TSMC.
Tesla’s Big Win: The recent $100M deal for their Semi trucks in California has given the stock the momentum it needed to break out of its recent slump.
AI Infrastructure: Companies like Vertiv (+41.86%) and Astera Labs (+27.14%) are still benefiting from the massive spend on data center cooling and connectivity.
Portfolio Reaction
The strategy is working, as the massive gains in chips and AI infrastructure are easily offsetting the dips in smaller positions. I’ve also started leaning more into ETFs like the Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAM) and WisdomTree Quantum Computing (WQTM) to get broader industry exposure without as much single-stock risk.
Next Plan
Taking Profit: It’s getting hard to ignore a 170% gain on Intel. I’m planning to sell a small portion soon just to lock in my initial investment.
The Energy Bet: Even though Constellation Energy (CEG) is slightly red at -4.85%, I'm holding it as a long-term play on the power needs of AI.
HIMS Decision: I'll give Hims another week or two to see if it stabilizes, otherwise, I might cut it to move that capital into a stronger trend.
Risk Check
The biggest risk is definitely "valuation fatigue." A lot of these gains in the chip sector happened very quickly, and any negative macro news could trigger a sharp pullback. I'm keeping my stop-losses tight, especially on the high-flyers like Intel and POET, to protect the progress made so far.
