Reference Portfolio · Updated
Jensen — NVIDIA Strategic Authority
$100,000 into every public company NVIDIA backs — a Tier-1 equity stake or Tier-3 architecture admission — bought at the disclosure-day close, held additively until NVIDIA's 13F shows the position gone. The Pattern 03 cohort as a live book.
Thesis
NVIDIA's corporate equity deployments are a leading indicator for the AI build-out. The Jensen book turns that read into a portfolio: add a public company the day NVIDIA discloses a corporate equity stake (Tier 1) or admits it to a named NVIDIA architecture layer (Tier 3 — NVLink Fusion, Spectrum-X, DSX, AI-RAN, Vera/Rubin, BlueField, CUDA, Omniverse). Equal weight, $100,000 per signal at the disclosure-day close. Additive only — NVIDIA topping up a stake it already holds does not trigger a second buy. Hold until NVIDIA's 13F shows the position gone.
The cohort is ten live positions — Nebius, Intel, CoreWeave, Marvell, Nokia, Coherent, Lumentum, IREN, Synopsys and Corning — plus three closed on NVIDIA's disposition: Applied Digital and Arm at a gain, Recursion at a loss. This is not stock-picking. It is reading NVIDIA's published capital allocation and following it.
The full event timeline, the four-tier signal hierarchy, the XIRR money-weighted return and the forward calendar of NVIDIA events that tend to drive the next admission all live on the methodology page; this portfolio is the holdings view of that work. Methodology & live cohort: Pattern 03 — NVIDIA Strategic Authority.
