ADVICE

Become An AI-Native 10x Worker

  • Use AI to become a 10x worker who can do the work of multiple people instead of being one of many replaceable workers.
  • Learn AI-native workflows this year; late adopters risk being disadvantaged long-term.
INSIGHT

AI Barbell Portfolio Rationale

  • A barbell of holdings makes sense: high-growth AI beneficiaries paired with hard assets like metals and Bitcoin.
  • This hedges between tech upside and protection from disinflationary pressures on asset prices.
ADVICE

Buy Quality Names During Software Selloffs

  • Buy high-quality software names when the index sells off; price matters because adaptation outcomes are binary.
  • Favor companies that can execute AI integrations or are priced so badly the downside is limited.
