So here’s how I’m thinking about it: • If I was running a large-cap portfolio? Yeah, XX would probably be overkill. But in small-caps, it’s a different game. You’re not looking for every name to double -- you’re looking for a few to 5–10x. And to find those, you need surface area. You need exposure. Because let’s be real -- some of these will flame out, and that’s fine. • This is the part of the market where optionality matters more than concentration. I’d rather own 20+ names I’ve spent real time on and give myself a shot at catching the next $IONQ or $RKLB -- instead of swinging for the fences with 3–5 names and blowing up if one goes south. • I’m not throwing darts. I size based on conviction, catalysts, timelines -- some are bigger, some are just spec moonshots. But every position earns its keep. And in this space, I’d argue this is actually risk management, not over-diversification. • Could I be wrong on some? Of course. But I’d rather be wrong small on a few and right big on the ones that matter -- that’s the whole point of this approach. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about surviving long enough to get paid when you’re right.
