Research notes

On Monday I wrote that this week could bring some much-needed relief after last week’s pressure, and that I was watching whether some of our short-term positions could reach their price targets. That’s exactly what happened! 🟢🥳 Several take-profit targets were hit this week, including $KLAR at +12.49% and multiple $OUST positions between +21.76% and +36.57%. I’m especially happy with how $OUST performed. LiDAR remains a volatile sector, but it’s also one of the areas where I still see strong long-term potential across autonomy, robotics, smart infrastructure and advanced mobility. As mentioned I'm rotating a part of the capital into $HSAI , another LiDAR name that has been on my tracking and wish list for a while. The potential US-Iran deal is still to be finalized and I still expect the markets to react once announced. Of course, that only matters if the deal actually holds, until then I see it as a positive trigger. I’m happy to have a decent cash position, ready to rotate and make some swings, when the next crisis starts! Next week I’ll give you some insights into my next long-term narrative and I’ve been working hard with the etoro API to generate some exciting metrics about my portfolio. Have a nice weekend!

After last week’s 17% drop in $NIO, which in my view had no valid reason behind it, I’m definitely hoping for a more positive tone in the general markets. If sentiment improves, I believe we can recover part of that move in the short term. Looking at the futures, markets seem to be reacting positively to Trump’s comments suggesting that talks to end the conflict are moving in the right direction. The key point here is energy. If tensions ease and the Strait of Hormuz can reopen, pressure on oil prices should come down. That matters because lower oil prices can reduce inflation fears, support consumer spending, and give markets more confidence that the macro situation won’t deteriorate further. Beyond the markets, I’m also just hoping the world can slowly move back toward fewer wars and less fear. On the portfolio side, one of my short-term swing trades from last week closed after only three days with a 12.5% profit. I’ve rotated that capital into another LiDAR company: $HESAI. $HESAI has been on my tracking and wish list for a while. I’m considering growing this position because the company’s trajectory looks strong, and I believe we may be reaching a lower resistance/support area. My expectation is a bounce from here, potentially followed by a stronger move. Another thing I’ll be watching this week is $OUST. If the Iran situation improves and the broader market reacts positively, I think we could reach several of our price targets on $OUST. If that happens, I’ll park the profits from those trades and use them for new short-term swing opportunities while looking for new technologies or markets to enter. Today majority of the markets are closed, let's enjoy the sun and wait for tomorrow! Let’s see what this week brings. What do you think: relief rally, continuation, or another fake-out?

Today was a rough day for my portfolio, but in my view this looked more like an overcorrection than a normal healthy pullback. After the strong move we’ve seen recently in growth names, some profit-taking was expected. My portfolio has a strong focus on high-beta companies, so when market sentiment turns negative, the reaction is usually stronger than the broader market. That’s uncomfortable on days like this, but it’s also part of the strategy. For me, today’s weakness created two short-term swing opportunities: $KLAR and $OUST. Klarna has been on my watchlist since its IPO. More recently, it moved higher on my wish list because the valuation started to look attractive to me. I was already looking at it the day before the results and thought it looked like a bargain, but I didn’t take action. In hindsight, I regret that, but I'm excited to have entered now although as a short-term swing rather than a long-term conviction position for now. Ouster is a different type of swing. It’s already part of my portfolio story, and it remains one of the more volatile names. After the recent momentum, a pullback was possible, but I think today’s reaction went too far. That gave me a trigger to add a short-term swing position as well, will we have another TACO tomorrow? Either way my target price is set, only 8% to go before we take our 12.5%. These swings are part of my strategy, they’re short-term opportunities created by a day where overall market emotions take over faster than a change in the fundamentals. I enjoy doing the technical analysis for them, but I enjoy them even more when they are in companies I want to own.

At the time of writing, we’re up around 7.5% for the week, which is a very strong move in such a short period. Part of that came from $AEVA, where two of our price targets were reached. Those positions were closed with profits of 28.8% and 12.8%. Because of that, we now have a small cash buffer again. It’s still tiny, but it gives us a bit more flexibility if the market gives us a pullback. Premarket currently looks like it may become a profit-taking day. After a weekly move like this, that would be completely healthy. A 7.5% increase in one week is extreme, some cooling off is normal and probably even needed. The goal stays the same: stay patient, manage risk, and keep building around the long-term story.

Although I was expecting March to be our first +5٪ increase of the year, it seems that last week boycotted that expectation. Nevertheless March has been a volatile but interesting month and it has boosted my sentiment for the majority of our portfolio. What’s important to highlight is that we haven’t seen any major negative company-specific news across our positions. Most of the movement this month has been driven by broader market conditions and sentiment, not by deterioration in fundamentals. We saw strong momentum in $NIO , earnings expectation is increasing and sentiment is improving going into 2026. At the same time, some of our more speculative plays like $OUST and $SMR have been under pressure and $AEVA has seen some increasing volatility, but in the right direction. That’s part of the game with emerging tech. The geopolitical tensions added some uncertainty to the markets. These situations tend to create short-term swings, but don’t change the long-term thesis for the companies we’re invested in. I do believe that we're almost at rock bottom, but we need stability in the middle east before we can be at ease, burning a candle for Trump's ego always helps. Going into April, the focus remains the same: - Stay patient - Stick to conviction plays (our companies are still pushing) - Avoid reacting to short-term noise - We’re positioned for growth, but expect continued volatility along the way.

First, deliveries continue to grow strongly. The company delivered over 124k vehicles in the quarter, a major increase year-over-year. Growth in deliveries remains the main driver behind NIO’s improving financials. Second, we’re starting to see better margins (around 18% in Q4, which is high) and signs that the business model is scaling. For a long time the biggest concern around NIO was cash burn. The latest results show that as volumes increase, profitability becomes much more realistic. Third, management gave very strong guidance for 2026, expecting significant growth in both deliveries and revenue. That tells us demand for their newer models is still strong despite the intense EV competition in China. Of course, risks remain. The Chinese EV market is extremely competitive and price pressure across the sector continues. This will likely keep the stock volatile in the short term. In context of my portfolio, NIO remains a growth position in the portfolio, and the story still depends on execution, scaling production, and expanding internationally. With these results I can say that I'm very optimistic about the future of NIO and I'm curious how 2026 will go wrt to the stock price, I've got my price targets set.

$TEAM , the company behind tools like Jira and Confluence, announced it will cut around 10% of its workforce while restructuring the company around AI. I honestly think 10% is just the start for Atlassian, the IT industry is still figuring out what this transition actually means. Yes individual productivity increases a lot, but the bigger question is what happens to the entire software development cycle. For years we’ve used frameworks like Agile and Scrum to keep development organized and predictable. If productivity suddenly multiplies, simply adding more tickets to a sprint won’t solve anything. The real change will likely happen at the planning level. Roadmaps that used to span 2–3 years might shrink to 6 months or even less. Companies will be able to build, test and pivot much faster. That raises an interesting question: once organizations reach that speed, how will teams, planning cycles and product strategy adapt? This is something I’m paying close attention to when looking at tech companies. The winners will likely be the ones that rethink how they build software, not just the ones that add AI tools to their stack.
