It takes courage to go against the current looking for opportunities that the market will not reward in the short-term. Times of turmoil is when we pay special attention to insiders and they led us to energy stock in mid-2020, regional banks in H1 2023, biotech companies in early 2025 and more recently SaaS stocks. While I don't have a position in $NOW, we did start positions in $CRM, $NAVN (partially exited) and more. Here is some of what I wrote about that decision to double down on SaaS in our July 2026 newsletter:

@PostmodernRogue @fkon1u @DumbMoneyTV what exactly do you think is priced in? >37M launch-quarter units? >45M? >50M? what ARPU? “priced in” isn’t an argument without numbers. There is upside and downside. Been crushing $TTWO GTA trades since ’99. Always happy to compare notes.
