    I'm almost ready to go "all-in" on a specific asset again. That conviction has been rising decisively over the last few months. Last time I had this feeling was in 2022, when I bought bitcoin around 15k, and put half of my retirement account into it. And then in 2024, when I bought AST Space Mobile for below $3. Those investments changed my life. I'm feeling it again today. It's that kind of…

    @escapevelocity I agree with you. ETF is too widespread now. When an idea becomes widespread/mainstream then usually it is going to fall soon or later. This current market seems very high to me, so the bubble could explode much higher than the previous ones. As you say, usually the market will punish "normal" people and only rich and wise people will benefit from each crisis. I believe that mos…

    Reflexivity: the process of examining how the observer is never entirely separate from the observed. In finance, it describe a self-reinforcing feedback loop where market sentiment alters the fundamentals of a market. For example, rising asset prices --> more buyers --> prices goes even higher ---> create bubble.

    Unusual Machines $UMAC: strong Q1 2026 earnings. 296% rev increase YoY, to $8.1m. From 20 to 190+ employees in a year. This is a pick and shovel drone company. I'm adding after hours.

    Interesting new space ETF, $NASA. Has heavy $ASTS, $RKLB, Space X, $RDW exposure. I don't buy ETFs, but will be interesting to track sentiment.

    @remster I prefer to concentrate my portfolio with the hope to realize outsized returns. More risks and higher vol for sure lol.

    Speculative 20x idea: Solid Power ($SLDP), $2.98. A quite secretive solid state battery (SSB) company, focusing on selling their proprietary electrolyte powder to manufacturers. Backed by BMW, Ford, has a partnership with SK ON and Samsung SDI. SSBs are safer, have higher energy density than liquid Li-ion batteries, and the EV industry is expecting mass adoption by 2030. I like that the business m…

    @ilona TAM could be in the multiple billions of annual rev, in few years. Millions of vehicles multiplied by a few hundreds dollars per license. Currently valued at 700m$ mcap, this could be a 10-20x within 5 years, but only if they become the gold standard for solid batteries.
