My Dad was just in a bad car accident. He’s at the hospital getting checked out. I’m trying to get updates from my Mom who is there.
If everyone could just say a quick prayer or send positive thoughts I’d greatly appreciate it.
Please don’t DM me. I’m off Twitter for the night.
Since I get lots of DM's asking about my current portfolio and what I own, I decided to create a Google spreadsheet and make it viewable for everyone. My plan is to update it every afternoon after the market closes.
Feel free to bookmark this link:
What's your favorite stock with a market cap under $5 billion that you think has the most upside over the next 2-3 years?
Feel free to include why you picked this stock because it might help others get bullish too.
Here are 20 smaller companies (under $5 billion market cap) with explosive growth potential that I’m watching closely.
I’m hoping to add some of these very soon with more due diligence and attractive technical setups.

I spent a good portion of my day putting this spreadsheet together which compares 100+ growth stocks on 2021/2022 metrics like rev growth, gross profit, EV/GP and EV/GP vs growth
I hope it's helpful. Feel free to comment any stocks you'd like me to add.
People ask me about my investment strategy so I'll try to sum it up in a short thread. Here's what I look for:
1) small/mid cap stocks under $10B market cap
2) at least 30% revenue growth
3) potential of 50% upside within 12 months
4) potential of 5x returns within 5 years

I’m sure if we trolled his LinkedIn page we’d see a post about him sleeping on the floor in his office so he didn’t have to waste time commuting and taking showers.
I see this guy every day at Dunkin and he's always smiling. Never in a million years would I have guessed he was homeless just a couple years ago and eating out of trash cans.
I think it's a good reminder to be nice to people because you never know what they've been through.

Thank you
@Chamath
for this incredible opportunity. I'm very excited to work with you, the

team and the other emerging managers.
One of my long time friends was diagnosed yesterday with brain cancer. Her name is Sophie.
Any prayers would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏽
I’m know she’s terrified but she’s a fighter and has a very strong support system.
It’s time for the Russian military to retreat from Ukraine and head straight back to Moscow so they can forcibly remove Putin from power.
Russia needs new leadership.
Seems like two bad weeks in the markets brings out the worst in some people. It’s too bad b/c I love twitter but some people make it intolerable on certain days. It’s sad that these people have nothing better to do than create fake profiles for the purpose of harassing others.

After the blowback Robinhood will get from cutting off the buying and selling of certain stocks could force them to postpone their upcoming IPO.
Even though I have no interest in chasing these short squeezed stocks, they should be allowed to trade freely.
We need free markets!!
Over the weekend I’m going to write a blog post...”12 reasons why every growth investor needs to own $FSLY for the next 12 months”
If you’d like me to send you the link please favorite or retweet this.
Disclosure: $FSLY is currently 49.8% of my portfolio so I know it well 🚀
Last summer when $SMCI had a market cap below $10B I thought the stock could 5x over the next 5 years.
I didn’t expect the stock to 5x over the next 8 months.
I came into the year with a 13.5% position in $SMCI.
$SMCI is up more then 250% YTD
I’ve been trimming my…
@GBaller
I’ve been trying to build a full position in $SMCI but it won’t pull back for me. I’ve put together some estimates and investment models; I think this could be a $50B company in 5-6 years.
Q1 is officially over and it went pretty well with my investment portfolio up +101.8% YTD

My small cap stocks might be getting crushed but I just got my first vaccine shot and it’s 66 degrees out so I have at least two things to be happy about today 😁
Many of the people saying stocks are overvalued are the same people that never bought $AMZN $NVDA or $NFLX because they were always "overvalued".
It's amazing how many investors spout off about stocks and valuations yet have horrible track records. Stop listening to clowns.
$UPST just smashed Q2 earnings beyond my wildest expectations
Q2 revenues were $194M > up 1,018% YoY
Bank partners originated 286,864 loans totaling $2.8 billion > up 1,605% YoY
Contribution profit was $96.7M > up 2,171% YoY
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 31% vs -18% in 2020 Q2
Last week I posted my first list of "20 stocks to watch with market caps under $5 billion and explosive growth potential”
Considering that tweet got 220,000+ views it appears that others are also interested in finding these hidden gems.

For the past few weeks it’s become clear to me the shorts were attacking my favorite stocks. Over the past 24 hours I’ve received some evidence. These shorts don’t care about these companies or the shareholders, they are just greedy pricks. I’d love a good short squeeze.
After receiving this email and reflecting on the events from last week it reminded me our country does a horrible job of teaching young people about investing, so I'm going to help.
In 2 weeks I'm hosting a free webinar to teach young people about stocks:
My portfolio might have been down today but I don’t really care because I just bought two tickets to a Red Sox game at Fenway Park in July and I’m taking my Dad 😎
#familyfirst
The market selloff the past few days has not been fun but I'm not worried. Inflation fears are exaggerated. Rising rate fears are exaggerated.
I'm extremely bullish on stocks because we have an ideal setup for the next couple years which includes low rates and a booming economy.
I’m 100% done with the due diligence for my next stock writeup and 50% done with the writing. I’m heading to bed soon but will wake up at 5:30am to finish up.
I’m hoping to have it sent out by 9am EST.
Please stop sending me hundreds of DMs/emails to ask when it’s coming 😬 thx
Lots of great growth stocks pulling back to their 10d and 20d moving averages.
This should get you excited as a long term investor.
This is exactly when you should be adding to your favorite names or starting positions in stocks that you didn’t want to chase a few weeks ago.
Tomorrow at 7pm EST I'm hosting a live Zoom chat with
@Saxena_Puru
and
@BrianFeroldi
We'll be talking about the markets, stocks, hedging, volatility, interest rates and whatever else is on our minds.
We're keeping it fun and casual.

Yesterday my father celebrated his 80th birthday 🎉
Today in our family text thread I asked him… “now that you have 80 years of wisdom to share with us, what are 5 life lessons we need to know?”
This was his response:
1. Always forgive including yourself
2. Save something…

#2
best performing small cap mutual fund over the past 12 months.
YTD: +25.51%

Currently the funds largest position is $SKLZ 🤔
Thank you to everyone selling my favorite stocks today. Now I get to load up on Monday when I start running my
@SocialCapital
fund.
I was partly hoping for a pullback so I'm glad we got one. I have no doubt these stocks are going much higher over the next 6-12 months. Giddy up!!
I've decided to launch a daily show about finance and investing. We'll be streaming it live every morning for 40-50 minutes.
During this show we'll talk about the markets, economic data, individual stocks, fundamental analysis, technical analysis, option strategies & much more.
I haven't done one of these in a while... here's my current portfolio in alphabetical order:
$AI $APP $CELH $CLPT $CPNG $CRWD $DLO $DM $DMTK $DNMR $DOCN $EXPE $HIMX $LOVE $MP $PAVM $PLTR $ROKU $S $SOFI $STEM $SWAV $TMDX $UPST $ZG $ZI $ZIM $ZIP

Covid finally got me 🤒
Despite being vaccinated and masked up whenever I leave my apartment, I still tested positive this morning.
Last night I felt horrible (headache, aches, fever, chills, etc) but I’m feeling 50% better today. Hopefully I’m back to normal by the weekend 🙏🏽
Twitter continues to prove its the most important media/communications platform in the world.
Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Pinterest and LinkedIn all serve their purpose in different ways but Twitter is the only platform that provides value on a daily basis.
I wanted to share a quick story from last night...
I was at the gym working out when one of the employees from
@DunkinDonuts
came in with two full boxes of donuts and left them on the front counter.
I have exciting news to share for all $DMTK investors.
I'll be interviewing John Dobak, CEO of
@DermTech
on March 9th. Get your popcorn ready!!!!
$DMTK is still my largest position so I'm beyond excited for this one.
$DMTK has a special place in my heart. I love this company.
In the past hour I've had a cardiologist and a neurosurgeon slide into my DM's and pitch me their favorite stocks based on their first-hand experience with these products and the ability for them to save/improve lives with better surgical outcomes.
Twitter is a magical place!!!
It’s official — the FinTwit Conference in Orlando over Columbus Day weekend has the green light 🚀
I signed the contract today. Now I’m just waiting for the sales team to send over the our special reservation links so everyone can book their rooms and get the negotiated rates.
Some of my favorite stocks are down 5-10% today.
Does it suck? Yes.
Am I worried? No.
When you find a company with strong fundamentals, reasonable valuation, exciting story and growing TAM that can 5x over the next 5 years:
1) Be patient
2) Dollar cost average
3) Be patient
7 months ago I loaded up on $UPST $FUTU $CELH before the big revenue growth kicked in -- this worked out very well.
Now I'm doing the same thing with $DMTK $DM $CLPT b/c the big revenue growth will kick in over the next 4-6 quarters which should move these stocks much higher.
I’ve been saying for the past month that $DMTK should average 200-250% rev growth over the next 5 years which takes them to $1+ billion in revs and a $15-20 billion valuation.
Even with the 25% pop in after hours trading $DMTK is still a 10-20 bagger over the next 5 years.
I like to say "pendulum swings too far in both directions"
We watched this happen a month ago; now it's happening again.
Lots of quality growth stocks with strong fundamentals starting to look cheap.
This is not the time to go hide in cash or chase value stocks.
Be patient.
For the first time in 2+ years, $CELH or $SMCI are no longer my largest positions.
In fact, as of Friday's close, $TMDX and $FOUR are now the two largest positions in my investment portfolio.
Most of you probably know I've been buying $CELH since May 2020 when the stock was…

We’re living in the golden age of stock investing for several reasons:
1) There’s so much data & information available compared to 5-10 years ago
2) There’s an incredible number of innovative, disruptive companies to invest in
3) $0 commissions on most platforms
4)FinTwit
Update:
My brother is a Doctor at the hospital so he rushed over to check on Dad.
Dad seems to be alright but they’re running a few more tests.
His SUV got hit, rolled over and airbags deployed but thankfully he was wearing his seatbelt.
The seatbelt probably saved his life.
We're looking pretty good today on $MWK $DMTK and $PRCH -- who else is making money on these?
Don't miss my next stock writeup which should be out tomorrow morning although please don't DM me and ask me when it's coming. It will go out when it's ready.
Can everyone please say a quick prayer or send some happy thoughts for my little Lily — she doesn’t feel good and was yelping last night when it picked her up. 🙏🏽
Love you Lily 😍
Portfolio update:
-nothing good
-everything bad
Day: -6.8%
YTD: +106%
Today I added most aggressively to $DMTK $MWK $TMDX $UPST $CELH $FUSE $APPH $STIC
Days like today are just part of the journey, you have to be willing to take the bad with the good.
Over the next couple days I'm going to put together a stock picking contest.
Everyone has to pick 3 stocks, you can't make any changes and the person with the best average performance at the end of 2021 wins $2,000 that will come out of my personal account.
Portfolio update:
-excellent day for $APPH $DNMR $CCIV

My next stock pick for paid subscribers comes out Monday:
My webcast last night went so well that I'm planning to do these 2-3 times per month.
Who are some other investors that you'd like to see on the webcast?
I just heard this from a close friend that has a very reliable source in Ukraine —
apparently Ukraine is letting prisoners out, arming them with AK-47s and putting them on the front lines to fight Russian forces.
I've never seen so many growth stocks down double digits at the same time. Insane washout!!!
Even though it was painful it was needed. Now the big funds (that run the market) and have been sitting on cash can put it to work and buy these great growth stocks at cheaper prices.
6 months ago I began working on my own quant model that uses 16 data points/signals to help determine price targets for my stocks.
The model is still a work in progress but feel free to give me one of your top stocks and I’ll run it through and give you a 12 month price target.
This is going to blow a few minds so get ready...
I will always be a $CELH shareholder because I really like the company and the products but the stock is up 2,200% since my first buys in 2020.
$CELH is up 65% in the past 5 weeks and 30% in the past week.
As of today $CELH…
Could my stocks go down next week? Yes.
Am I selling my stocks today? No.
Am I adding to my stocks today? Yes.
If you say you're a long term investor then you need to start acting like one.
Stocks go up and stocks go down.
Long term investors can't make money every month.
Can someone please explain to me how Cathie Wood continues to get so much airtime on CNBC with her flagship fund down -70% in the past 3 years and flat over the past 5 years vs $QQQ which is up +141% over the past 5 years.
I'm starting to wonder if ARK is paying CNBC for these…
I would welcome a pullback in the markets — there are plenty of stocks that look short-term overextended and need to consolidate before the next leg higher.
With that said, anyone that thinks the current market/valuations/multiples looks anything like the “dot com bubble”…
Lots of investors and strategists are predicting that 2024 will be a strong year for small/mid caps so I ran a simple screener tonight...
This was the criteria:
- market cap between $1 billion and $20 billion
- 20% or higher revenue growth in 2024 and 2025 (est.)
- positive…
If you're going to be adding on these bloody days (which I'm doing), I suggest adding to the companies that posted the best earnings reports and issued strong guidance for 2022 because once we find a bottom and bounce it's those companies that will be the new market leaders.
Just be more respectful to others — it will make Twitter a much more enjoyable place for all of us.
With that said, let’s hope we finish out the week with a big green day.
Not only did the January jobs number come in +300k above expectations but they revised the November number by +437k and December by +300k.
The economy is doing well. We're not heading into a recession. We can absorb some rate hikes and the stock market will be just fine.
$NVDA continues to impress...
Revenues up 265% YoY
Operating income up 563% YoY
Net income up 491% YoY
Gross margins up to 76.7%
Most impressive part is the operating leverage... revenues were up 265% YoY but operating expenses were only up 25% YoY
$NVDA is expected to grow…
Yesterday I finished the book “100 Baggers” and if I had to share one lesson from the book it’s this:
Monster Beverage ($MNST) was a 100-bagger in just 10 yrs
10x over those 10 yrs $MNST dropped more than 25%
3x over those 10 yrs $MNST dropped more than 40%
Patience matters!!
