The Lunar Landing Portfolio continues to deliver on its founding thesis: a rigorously curated basket of high-conviction equities aligned with secular trends, durable fundamentals, and strong technical profiles. Spanning from January 2017 to January 2026, this portfolio exemplified the power of diversified conviction and momentum filtering, transforming a $10,000 initial investment into $106,448 — a remarkable 964% cumulative return, or a 29.74% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). Over this period, the portfolio demonstrated not only robust upside capture but also resilience through volatility cycles, outperforming both passive benchmarks and peer active strategies with poise and discipline.

The stocks featured in this portfolio do not represent a fixed buy-and-hold selection from a decade ago, but rather the result of an ongoing, dynamic investment process. This basket reflects the best-in-class equities as of today — companies that have proven their strength through recent performance, macro alignment, and technical resilience. The strategy is rooted in disciplined dollar-cost averaging: investing equal amounts into high-conviction names at regular intervals. Over time, this builds core positions in persistent outperformers. During scheduled reviews, underperformers are systematically removed, allowing only the strongest stocks to remain. Through this process, the portfolio evolves into a concentrated set of 20–25 equities that consistently outperform — not just relative to the S&P 500, but often exceeding even the NASDAQ 100’s benchmark returns.
