Risk Disclosure

High Risk holds leveraged and crypto-linked positions: SOXL (3x semiconductors) and TQQQ (3x Nasdaq-100) reset daily and can lose value over time even when the underlying index is flat or higher — they can lose value fast. MSTR carries leverage and direct bitcoin exposure. This is our model book, shared for transparency — it is not individualized investment advice, and position sizing reflects our risk tolerance, not yours. Every performance figure on this page is an actual, live result measured from the Jan 22, 2026 entry. Apr–Jun monthly cells are as-published marks; a close-basis restatement is pending the anchor review. Our published daily archive begins 15 April 2026; Jan–Mar 2026 monthly cells are estimated partial-period returns (marked *) carried from our May 2026 updates, shown as estimates rather than as-published daily marks. We show no backtested or hypothetical returns. Units are price-return; dividends are not accrued. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Data claims are dated as of publication.

Calculate Your Position Size

High Risk is still slightly red this morning, down about 0.5% to $815 a unit. That looks odd on a risk-on headline, but the reason is simple: SOXL is still down hard versus Friday's printed mark, while TQQQ and MSTR are positive. Cash is doing its job by keeping the drawdown controlled while the semiconductor tape proves itself.

The weekend stand-down helps HR more than any other book if it sticks. Lower oil lowers inflation pressure, lower yields support long-duration tech, and a calmer tape gives SOXL and TQQQ room to recover. But this is not a blind buy signal. Crude dropped; gasoline has not. AAA still has national regular gas around $4.11, and the IEA says refined product markets remain tight even after crude flows improved.

This week's earnings calendar is the real catalyst path. Cadence reports today, KLAC tomorrow, then Wednesday brings VRT, Microsoft, Meta, ARM, Qualcomm, Lam Research, and the Fed decision. Thursday brings Amazon and Apple. For this book, the question is whether AI capital spending is confirmed as demand-backed, or punished as free-cash-flow pressure. Microsoft and Meta can stabilize the tape; Amazon is the biggest capex/FCF swing risk.

Positioning stays disciplined. SOXL is about 25% of the unit, TQQQ about 19%, MSTR about 28%, and cash about 28%. If hyperscaler earnings say AI spend is real and funded by growth, SOXL/TQQQ can rebound fast. If earnings say spending is outrunning cash flow, cash becomes the weapon. No trades before the gauntlet. Hold the book, respect the leverage, and let the earnings week confirm the next move.
