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.
$Tesla(TSLA.US) is finally hitting its stride, now sitting at a +21.74% profit.
The stock just broke past $428, fueled by some massive news: a record $100M deal for 370 Semi trucks in California. Combine that with strong sales numbers in China and the focus on AI/robotics, and the market is clearly starting to re-rate the stock as more than just a car company.
The Game Plan:
This was one of my slower positions for a while, but the breakout is real. I’m holding tight as we head deeper into May.
【Week 3 – Intel Hits 147% & A Big Comeback】
Current Holdings
The portfolio is looking a lot healthier this week. The biggest news is Intel now up nearly 150%. I also had a massive turnaround with POET Tech; it went from being deep in the red last week to a +26% gain today.
Almost everything is green at this point. Micron and Vertiv are both holding strong with 40%+ gains, and even Zscaler finally moved back into the positive. Hims & Hers is still the only one struggling, but the winners are more than making up for it.
Next Plan
Ride the winners: No reason to sell Intel or Micron yet while they have this much momentum, but I'm watching closely.
New Addition: Added a tiny bit of Uranium Energy (UEC) to diversify a little bit outside of just AI and chips.
Watching the laggard: Still giving Hims some room, but it's on a short leash compared to the rest.
Risk Check
When nearly the entire portfolio is green, the biggest risk is getting too comfortable. I’m keeping my stop-losses tight because a lot of these tech gains happened very fast, and the market could decide to take a breather at any time.
A +20.33% return is always a win, but the real value is in the "why" and the "what next."
I entered this position at 327.36, recognizing Alphabet’s resilience in the AI arms race and its rock-solid balance sheet. Seeing it climb to 393.95 confirms the thesis: quality mega-caps still offer the best risk-adjusted runway in a volatile market.
It’s easy to get shaken out during local dips. Staying focused on the fundamental moat (Search + Cloud) paid the dividend here.
Risk Management: While the green looks great, I’m now evaluating whether to trim the position to lock in the initial principal or let the winner run with a trailing stop.
The Long Game: 20% is a milestone, not the finish line.
Always prioritize preservation of capital over the adrenaline of the trade. Onward to the next level. 🥂
🚀 $Intel(INTC.US) is Mooning: The Turnaround is Real!
What’s Driving the Surge?
The market has finally woken up to Intel’s massive pivot in 2026. Here’s why the stock is hitting near all-time highs:
18A Node Success: Intel’s "crown jewel" manufacturing process reached high-volume production, with the Core Ultra Series 3 (Panther Lake) launching to rave reviews for AI efficiency.
The Foundry Story: Reports of manufacturing deals with giants like Apple and Google have shifted the narrative. Intel is no longer just a chipmaker; it’s becoming a world-class foundry.
AI PC Leadership: With half of all PCs sold in 2026 expected to feature built-in AI processing, Intel’s aggressive push into the "AI PC" era is securing high-margin revenue.
Earnings Beat: Strong Q1 2026 results highlighted massive demand for AI-focused data center CPUs and narrowing losses in the Foundry division.
【Week 2 – My First 100% Gainer!】
It’s been a wild week of extremes. The highlight is definitely $Intel(INTC.US), which more than doubled and is now sitting at +111%. On the flip side, POET Tech had a massive crash, swinging from a huge gain last week to -18% now. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but that’s why we diversify, the Intel gains basically covered the POET losses.
Earnings Watch
The big tech reports really saved the day. Alphabet (Google) and Amazon both jumped nicely after their earnings calls, proving that the cloud and AI spend isn't slowing down yet. Microsoft is also holding steady, though it hasn't moved as much as the others.
Next Plan
Intel: It's tempting to hold forever, but I’m looking to trim a bit soon to lock in the initial investment.
POET & HIMS: Both are deep in the red now. I need to re-evaluate if the "story" has changed or if this is just a temporary dip.
New Entry: Added a tiny bit of Constellation Energy (CEG) as a bet on the power needed for AI centers.
Risk Check
My portfolio is very heavy on chips. If the semiconductor sector takes a breather, I’m going to see a lot of red. I'm keeping an eye on the overall market mood to make sure I don't get caught in a sudden tech sell-off.
$Micron Tech(MU.US) The AI memory trade is still going strong. With HBM capacity sold out through 2026, the demand isn't slowing down. The stock recently cleared a major breakout level around $470 and is now pushing toward new all-time highs.
Week 1 – Tech Stocks Still Charging
My portfolio is looking pretty green this week, mostly thanks to a big bet on chips and AI. $POET Tech(POET.US) is the star performer up nearly 80%, and Intel has had a massive run lately too. On the flip side, Zscaler and Hims & Hers are lagging behind, but they are smaller positions so they aren't hurting the overall balance too much.
Earnings Watch
This is a huge week. We’ve got the big players like Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon reporting soon. Since a lot of my money is in these names, their results will basically decide how the rest of my month goes. I’m also keeping a close eye on Intel’s update to see if this rally has more legs.
Next Plan
Don't chase: Resist the urge to add more to the winners while they are at all-time highs.
Watch the cloud: If Amazon and Microsoft show big growth in AI, I’ll stay the course. If they miss, I might look at trimming some tech and moving into more stable areas.
Patience with the red: Giving Zscaler a bit more time to find a bottom before deciding if it still fits the plan.
Risk Check
I’m very "top-heavy" in tech right now. If the sector takes a hit, the whole portfolio will feel it. I need to make sure I'm not just following the hype and keep an eye on interest rate news which could cooled down these growth stocks.
$POET Tech(POET.US)Optical connectivity is the next bottleneck for AI. $POET Tech(POET.US) is positioned at the center of the solution. Is this the breakout year for AI photonics?
$Astera Labs(ALAB.US)$Astera Labs(ALAB.US) is quickly becoming the "connective tissue" play for the AI era. While the valuation remains premium, the growth trajectory is undeniable. Keep a close eye on the $165 resistance level, if it flips to support, we could see a run back toward the $200
$Intel(INTC.US)The chip giant is proving its balance sheet is back in fighting shape just ahead of Q1 earnings on April 23. Is the comeback officially here?
The stock has seen strong upward momentum, with a YTD increase of over 45%.
Liquid cooling is no longer optional, it's mandatory. VRT is the king of the "Physical Layer" in the Industrial AI Era!
