Not groundbreaking to the smart people on X but whenever I talk ai with people, how to best prompt always comes up. My advice is don’t overthink it. Just brain dump what you’re trying to do into the LLM and tell it to create a prompt for you to copy and paste. Try this if you haven’t yet, you’ll be blown away.

This guy beat the market for 17 straight years trading a sector many investors have written off post-2008 Derek Pilecki (@gatorcapital) runs a financials-only fund. 21%+ annualized. His edge? A corner of the market many investors moved away from after the GFC. We cover: - Why he expanded from 25 → 40 positions and returns went UP - His counterintuitive rule: buy higher, not lower (positions get LESS risky as they rise) - The Robinhood call — bought late 2023, rode it to a multibagger - Why he's quietly watching FactSet, Morningstar & Verisk right now - His view on private credit risk (and why he disagrees with Jamie Dimon) - How he uses AI to analyze more stocks without losing his edge - Why markets chronically underreact to good news — and how to exploit it - The brutal career reality no one tells young PMs about Highlights: 00:00 Intro 01:06 Derek's +21% annualized return track record 02:50 Fundamental business change vs market noise in Robinhood 05:25 Portfolio construction: Concentration limits and adding to winners 09:09 Sourcing alpha and identifying three-year doubles in financials 12:44 Developing edge through repetition and management team cycles 14:16 Why the post-GFC regime fundamentally changed bank underwriting 17:07 Assessing tail risk and leverage in the private credit market 21:23 AI-driven market dispersion and identifying moaty businesses 24:11 Why shareholder base turnover matters for timing broken charts 29:37 Integrating AI into fundamental research and SEC filing analysis 35:39 Risk management: Permanent capital loss vs mark-to-market volatility 37:12 Capacity constraints: Optimizing for returns over AUM scale 50:39 Career risk and the reality of active money management

$TPB last night Turning Point Brands filed its proxy. I see CEO Purdy changed his 2025 bonus from cash to stock $750K worth at sub $90 levels. Essentially an insider buy! Very positive signal in my view as Mr. Purdy buying three quarters of a million dollars in stock post ridiculous sell off post a strong quarter and outlook. Must be upbeat modern oral @FREPouch and @alppouch

To grasp the extent of how much oil demand will need to decrease to balance out 12 million b/d of supply outage, consider this: During the peak COVID lockdown, global oil demand fell 15 million b/d. Note: April 2020 balance +20 million b/d due to Saudi’s surge in production.

For those who miss QuickFS, I created code for SEC filing companies to display all historical financials based on xbrl filings. I do not want to host it so I put it on github for you to download locally and use. I do not have any microphone on x so I will tag people I have seen use it in case they find it useful. @FocusedCompound, @TreyHenninger, @DeepValueStonks, @david_katunaric github.com/Dolventures/qu…

Crude futures aren't telling the full story. See Dubai physical swaps (white, balance of the month) vs Brent prompt futures (blue) below. Normally they're pretty close, but right now there's a MAD bid for physical crude in the region—$100/bbl futs, $140/bbl physical barrels.
