Temporarily Moving to Substack

March 26, 2022 exponentialdaveLeave a comment

Readers, thank you so much for following along on ExponentialDave.com! I’ve decided to try out Substack for the time being, and so I will be publishing there from now on. Link to my new substack is here.

If you are an email subscriber to exponentialdave.com, your email has automatically been transferred over to the substack. If you subscribe to my blog through a blog of your own, I don’t have your email, so you will need to subscribe over on my substack if you still want updates from me.

Thanks again, and I look forward to seeing you on my new substack!

MongoDB is the newest trial position in my portfolio, and I made a YouTube video here where I talk about the key points behind my MongoDB investment thesis.

Also, my March portfolio update is in progress, and I hope to have it published this week.

Let me know what you think about MongoDB in the comments!

Welcome to my February 2022 portfolio update! My portfolio is up 214% as of writing on 2/21/2022 from when I started tracking my results on January 1st, 2020.

Mid January 2022 Portfolio Update

January 21, 2022 exponentialdave4 Comments

Hi everyone, I did a mid-month video portfolio update at this link here. The start of the year has been tumultuous to say the least, but I have mostly not changed the composition of my portfolio much (with one exception in CRWD). In the video, I discuss the position change, what I hold and why at a general level, investor psychology and strategy, and more.

Hello readers! I hope you are handling the latest market volatility gracefully. Like all previous market rotations, this one too shall pass. Many of you have previously asked me about Bill.com, so I’ve made a YouTube video to give it some extra coverage. Link to the video is here. Drop me a comment with any suggestions for future videos!

December 13, 2021 exponentialdaveLeave a comment

Hi everyone, I started a new SentinelOne trial position (about 3% of my portfolio including a small amount of LEAPS options on SentinelOne). I also made a quick YouTube video explaining what SentinelOne is, their financials, why I’m excited about the stock, and risks. The video is available at this link here.

The Latest Growth Stock Meltdown

December 5, 2021 exponentialdave5 Comments

I want to thank everyone for the tremendous support you have shown me here on the ExponentialDave blog, on Twitter, and most recently on YouTube! You are heard loud and clear – people like the new video content but don’t want it to take away from my written monthly updates. No worries! I have zero intent on stopping with the monthly updates.

In the mean time, before my usual monthly update, I have had a somewhat active month where I’ve made a couple of YouTube videos approximately 7-8 minutes long. The first one was when I spoke at length about Amplitude. And just today, I have followed up with another video, this one detailing my thoughts on the latest growth stock meltdown, why it’s happening, and what I did in response to it (including options), among other things. It is available at this link here.
