Flattery Wealth Management's January 2026 investor letter reviews a challenging 2025. While the S&P 500 returned 18%, Flattery's Core Individual Stock portfolio gained just 1.54% and the Growth ETF portfolio fell 1.8%, primarily dragged down by its high-conviction exposure to Bitcoin and a 47.53% decline in MicroStrategy (MSTR). Conversely, AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) surged 245%, HEICO (HEI) rose 36%, and Sprott Physical Gold and Silver Trust (CEF) surged 90%. The manager introduces an analogy comparing AI to the 'gunpowder moment' of 15th-century warfare, leveling the playing field for smaller, nimble participants while disrupting legacy systems. Looking forward, the manager remains highly constructive on their concentrated, contrarian positions over a 3-5 year horizon.
Grounding investments in business quality and fundamentals while holding the line on underappreciated, high-conviction opportunities (such as Bitcoin and space technology) paired with defensive compounders to deliver outsized, long-term multi-bagger returns.
Rejects short-term Wall Street forecasts as a waste of time. Instead, expects the firm's specific holdings to perform very well over a 3-5 year horizon based on strong fundamentals, rational capital allocation, and the long-term compounding of value.
