New positions

Q1 2026's filing was too long to tell new positions apart.

Share counts compared with the Q1 2026 13F; a split also changes share counts. The latest filing lists more than 50 positions, so a position that left the top 50 may still be held.

How the holdings did against the S&P 500.

1 year: +15.4% /yr; S&P 500 +20.1%

A portfolio of the filer's 20 largest 13F positions, weighted by value, bought the trading day after each 13F was filed and held until the next one was: what copying this filer could have earned. 13Fs show long US-listed positions only, so this is an estimate of the stock picks, not the fund's reported returns.
