Portfolio update June 2026: +3.23%
YTD: +93.44%
CAGR: +70.44%
Returns are MWRR-based and include FX.

Transactions:
New: $ADYEN, $NOW, $PLTR, $SIMO, $SITM
Add: $AMZN, $AVGO, $GOOG, $LITE, $META, $MSFT, $NVDA, $WOLF
Sold: $BDC, $FPS, $SNOW, $SNPS
Trim: $BESI, $CRDO, $IFX, $MU, $NBIS

The good:
- $LRCX Lam Research +36.19%
- $ASML ASML +24.31%
- $NBIS Nebius +19.51%

The bad:
- $WOLF Wolfspeed -18.61%
- $MSFT Microsoft -17.15%
- $AVGO Broadcom -15.45%

Tape: Rotating out of some names that already captured huge AI upside into ones where AI monetization story is still ahead (AMZN, META, MSFT, NOW, PLTR, …) protecting gains. Wouldn't surprise me also if political noise ramps up into midterms around data centers, power usage and grid strain. Sentiment and permitting risk more than demand risk. Imo this favors incumbents with existing capacity and locked-in contracts over more speculative greenfield names. Positioning accordingly.

@BeuvingJordy Context matters, let op de komma's: Er staat: "alleen kan belanden bij partijen, bij voorkeur in Europa, die de rechtsstaat respecteren en AI op een vreedzame, democratisch gecontroleerde, duurzame en veilige manier ontwikkelen."

[Thijs @spilicon]

@TBU12345678 Also, as a secondary issue, it's a crazy good company

[Thijs @spilicon]

@davey_juice Still not cheap but yeah same

[Thijs @spilicon]

@QualCompounders Such a shit product tho with that creative cloud

[Thijs @spilicon]

PDT shipped an MCP connector. No extra sub, no premium tier new paywall nonsense, just service. Set it up in <60 sec, plugged it into what I had already built in Perplexity and Claude for FA/TA and boom. Sets the bar imo. Kudos to @PimVerlaan @PDTapp

[Thijs @spilicon]

@ftr_investors Nooooo not Pool Corporation...

[Thijs @spilicon]

@ijustine Was watching a video of Scump, BigT, Merk and such the other day thinking I'm getting old, now you pull this...

[Thijs @spilicon]

Added to $META and $MSFT today and started small positions in $CIEN, $MXL, $SIMO and $SITM today to keep the momentum rolling lol :)

[Thijs @spilicon]

$ASML you beauty

[ASML @ASMLcompany]

Chips are like tiny skyscrapers that can have more than 100 layers. The lowest, most critical layers form the transistors, while upper layers route power and signals. For chipmakers, choosing the right lithography for each layer is key to balancing precision and cost.

@emmaknowsinves1 thanks, appreciate it!

Portfolio update May 2026: +26.56%
YTD: +86.3%
CAGR: +71.03%
Returns are MWRR-based and include FX nastyness.

Transactions:
New: $IFX, $LITE, $PLAB, $SNOW, $WOLF
Add: $AVGO, $LRCX, $META, $MSFT, $NVDA
Sold: $ALAB, $AMD, $ANET, $ASM.AS, $HY9H, $LPK, $SIVE
Trim: $CRDO, $MU, $NBIS

Yanked cash out of my broker since they pay zero interest (wtf right?). Cash is now my largest position by far, just does not show on pic of portfolio.

The good:
- $MU Micron +87.76%
- $ALAB Astera Labs +76.06%
- $NBIS Nebius +67.18%

The bad:
- $LITE Lumentum -5.4%
- $VRT Vertiv -3.89%
- $MPWR Monolithic Power -2.99%

Tape: Managing r/r on several positions since most have gone to the moon. Not sustainable imo and am not emotionally attached so don't mind taking profit. Well $ASM.AS sucked to sell (🇳🇱) but valuation got retarded. Still digesting earnings calls. Downside of running a mini-ETF as portfolio lol. Probably adding to $META and $LITE but otherwise sitting on cash until shit hits the fan again. Also looking into ultimate AI beneficiaries, so companies that win as AI gives people more time for example. Companies like $BKNG, $SHOP, $SNOW, $TTWO and $WSE imo come into play from that angle with not terrible valuation. Maybe even $DUOL since everybody hates it so much.

[Thijs @spilicon]

@KreizJordy Concentration like that takes balls. Respect.

[Thijs @spilicon]

Earnings of $SNPS, $CRM and $SNOW in a bit. Let's go you laggards

[Thijs @spilicon]

$NVDA is basically my favorite ETF here, added today as well as to $LITE

[Thijs @spilicon]

Also closed $AMD today, +259% gain deliciousness. Can probably go up more, but where are they gonna get the capacity/mem at this point?

[Thijs @spilicon]

Sold $HY9H today (+121%). Tradegate is meh, waiting for proper Nasdaq listing before possibly reopening this one.

[Thijs @spilicon]

Started a new position in SK Hynix alongside Micron $MU and Lam Research $LRCX to increase exposure to the HBM-layer of the AI-stack. SK Hynix stands out as the technology leader in HBM and trades at a relative valuation discount to peers, which strengthens the risk/reward as AI-driven memory demand accelerates beyond traditional DRAM-cycles. Doesn’t hurt to add a bit more geographic diversification alongside the thematic bet either.

[Thijs @spilicon]

Closed $LPK position today for a +249% gain in just over a month. Thesis still intact, valuation is not.

[Thijs @spilicon]

Took a small high-risk position in LPKF $LPK this morning. Still reading up on this but as I understand it, glass substrates could eventually replace organic ABF in advanced packaging. That needs Through-Glass-Vias (TGV) to function and LPKF appears to hold ~80% of TGV qualifications with their patented LIDE process which atm is the (only?) proven way to etch glass without micro-cracks at scale. Still loss-making with real volume ~2 years out. Position is sized accordingly.

[Thijs @spilicon]

@ContrarianCurse @gnoble79 Hehe nice one

[Thijs @spilicon]

Sold $ASM.AS today (+102%) as I further rationalize my portfolio. Trading well above my price target. Tough call on this Dutch champion but rules are rules.
