We need to talk. |
Some of our Moonshot Minute Portfolio positions are up nearly 300%. Others are sitting at 150%, 88%, 60%. |
I'm not here to tell you that making money in the market feels bad. It doesn't. It feels fantastic. |
But here's the thing about parabolic moves: they don't last forever. |
And while the bull case for many of our holdings remains completely intact, there's a difference between conviction and greed. |
So today, we're doing something we don't do often: we're trimming. |
We haven't lost faith and the thesis isn't broken but discipline is what separates investors from gamblers. |
What's Been Working |
If you've been following along, you know we've been pounding the table on a few key themes over the past year: |
Precious Metals |
We got into silver and gold positions back in April 2025. The thesis was straightforward: persistent inflation, central bank buying, geopolitical chaos, and a structural supply deficit in silver that few were talking about. |
Fast forward to today, and silver has had its best month since the 1980s. It's up 65% in January alone. Our silver-related positions are up between 150% and 282% from entry. |
Gold miners have been along for the ride too. |
When gold pushes toward all-time highs, the miners provide leveraged exposure and that leverage has worked beautifully for us. |
Uranium |
The nuclear renaissance is in full swing. |
AI data centers need ungodly amounts of power. Governments are realizing that you can't hit net-zero targets while simultaneously shutting down nuclear plants. Supply is constrained because mines don't just turn on overnight and demand is accelerating. |
Bank of America just named its top uranium pick for 2026. We've owned it since December. |
Critical Minerals |
This one's more speculative, but the thesis is simple: the U.S. is trying to decouple from China on everything from rare earths to lithium to copper. |
The government is literally taking equity stakes in domestic mining companies. One of our positions just received a federal investment. |
Copper |
It hit record highs this week. The supply/demand math is brutal, with major mines facing disruptions while AI infrastructure and EVs gobble up every pound available. JPMorgan sees another 25%+ upside from here. |
So, Why Trim Now? |
Because some of these moves have gone parabolic. And parabolic moves attract two things: late buyers and sharp corrections. |
I still believe in these themes and, in fact, the team is hard at work on several new recommendations focused on these themes. |
The structural bull case for precious metals, uranium, and critical minerals hasn't changed. If anything, it's gotten stronger. |
But when an asset is up 65% in a single month, you have to ask yourself: am I investing or am I gambling? |
Here's a simple truth most newsletters won't tell you: the best investors aren't the ones who catch every last tick of upside. They're the ones who lock in wins, manage risk, and live to fight another day. |
I've seen too many people ride a 200% gain back down to breakeven because they got greedy. I know how this feels firsthand because I've done it more times than I care to admit, and it's a punch to the gut. I don't want that for you. |
The Moonshot Original Position Rule |
We've developed a framework for moments like this, which I'm calling The Moonshot Original Position Rule. |
The idea is simple: when a position goes parabolic, trim it back down to the dollar value of your original investment. |
Why? |
Because a 282% gain means your position is now nearly 4x the size of your original bet. You're overexposed. You've got way more eggs in that basket than you started with. |
By trimming back to your original dollar exposure, you: |
Bank real profits (not paper gains — actual money in your account) Stay right-sized (same risk profile you started with) Keep participating (if it doubles again, you're still in) Sleep better (no matter what happens next)
|
It's not complicated. But it requires discipline. And discipline is hard when everything is ripping higher. |
What We're Doing Today |
Premium Members get the full breakdown below: exactly which positions we're trimming, how much, and why. |
We're making moves across seven positions today: |
Three precious metals plays (trimming parabolic gains) One critical minerals position (holding — thesis just got validated) Three other positions where we're creating new "Moonshot Rides" by recovering our original capital
|
I'll also walk you through the math step-by-step so you can apply the Moonshot Original Position rule to your own portfolio. |
If you've been on the fence about joining Premium, today's a good day. This is the stuff that matters — not just what to buy, but when to sell and how much. |
One more thing… |
Some newsletters will tell you what to buy. Few will tell you when to take profits. And I know because I've spent the last 15 years subscribing to every financial newsletter you can think of. |
They do that because "buy" is exciting. "Sell" feels like giving up. |
But selling isn't giving up. Selling is getting paid. It's the whole point. |
We're staying in the game with right-sized positions and cash in our pockets. That's how you build wealth over decades, not just quarters. |
More below for Premium Members, and congratulations to all the readers who followed through on the recommendations. |
I'd love for you to email me and let me know how you've done with our recommendations so far. |

In today's Premium Section, we're taking big gains on our positions, and I'm also revealing the Moonshot Original Position rule, which takes your gains and juices them further when the thesis is still in your favor. | I hope you've been paying attention because many of our picks are currently beating the S&P by up to 4-to-1 this year. | Most financial newsletters charge $500, $1,000, even $5,000 per year. Why? Because they know they can. | I don't. | I built my wealth the old-fashioned way, not by selling subscriptions. | That's why I priced this at $25/month, or $250/year. | Not because it's low quality, but because I don't need to charge the typical prices other newsletters charge. | One good trade, idea, or concept could pay for your next decade of subscriptions. | The question isn't 'Why is this so cheap?' The question is, 'Why would I charge more?' | 👉 Upgrade to Premium Now | P.S. If this newsletter were $1,000 per year, you'd have to think about it. | You'd weigh your options. You'd analyze the risk. | But it's $25 a month. | That's the price of a bad lunch decision. | And remember, just one good idea could pay for your subscription for a decade. | 👉 Upgrade to Premium Now | |
