Seeing a lot of discourse on October being a rough month for many, which is the case given how deeply battered the AI trade became, especially late in the month and this week. At @KryptonResearch, we spend every moment ensuring our positioning is perfected to avoid these drawdowns, and despite having a slow few months, our portfolio remains right near all time highs into November. Deep research matters. Who you follow matters.
