We’re renewing Canada’s relationship with China. As part of our new strategic partnership, China is granting visa-free travel for Canadians.

The valuation absolutely worries me. You can back out of the post I made on our AI basket’s YTD contributors (linked) how these are weighted. So you just have to do some scenario analysis - what is the % probability that Minimax catches up to OpenAI or Anthropic? At IPO Minimax was at ~6B mkt cap. If that scenario were to come to pass, you’d expect it to trade a lot higher, so even a 5% chance warranted some premium (now it’s at 33B). But at the same time, like you said, the valuation is crazy and there was an equal shot that sentiment turned and they were down 50% overnight. Although these labs have been making good progress so it was reasonable to expect some positive headlines. I think the way you frame it is far too binary. If you have a setup where the risk to the downside is 50% but the upside is a 6x…risk $1 to make $5 is a pretty good proposition. Do you just own zero of it because there’s a chance it’s down 50%? I would say no, you own some and weight it appropriately. Decisions don’t happen in a vacuum they happen in the context of your entire portfolio. Yes, if we’d made 100% of the book these names that would be gambling. Making them 0% of the book I think would have been being far too cautious and missing out on an opportunity. So we weighted them appropriately. x.com/citrini7/statu…
