LVS Advisory reported mixed 2025 results with the Event-Driven Portfolio gaining 9.1% while the Growth Portfolio gained 6.2%, underperforming the S&P 500's 17.9% return. The manager launched a levered version of the Event-Driven strategy in October 2025, capitalizing on improved M&A conditions driven by surging volumes, declining rates, and laxer regulation. The Growth Portfolio struggled in Q4 with an 8.2% decline, primarily due to Netflix's 21.8% drop following its $83 billion Warner Brothers Discovery acquisition announcement. Despite this setback, the manager maintains conviction in Netflix as the global streaming leader, viewing current 20x forward earnings as attractive given expected 20%+ earnings growth. Other portfolio impacts included software liquidation due to AI competitive concerns, while power infrastructure investments like Talen Energy and Curtiss-Wright performed well. The manager expresses caution about S&P 500 concentration risk and elevated valuations, preferring to diversify away from broad market exposure while maintaining selective positions in tech platforms and fintech companies.
LVS Advisory operates two complementary strategies: an Event-Driven portfolio focused on low-volatility, uncorrelated returns through merger arbitrage, and a Growth portfolio targeting capital appreciation through selective equity investments, with recent expansion into a levered version of the Event-Driven strategy to capitalize on improved M&A conditions.
The manager is energized for 2026 and excited to expand with the Levered Event-Driven strategy. Several promising new investments are in the pipeline for future discussion.

OilOil represents the cheapest major asset class globally, trading at near-record lows relative to gold despite balanced fundamentals. The closure of the Straits of Hormuz has created the largest supply shock in industry history, disrupting 20 million barrels per day. Non-OPEC supply growth is slowing dramatically, with U.S. shale production plateauing outside the Permian Basin. |
Crude Oil Brent WTI Shale OPEC |
Natural GasNatural gas ranks in the 99.5th percentile of historical undervaluation relative to equities. U.S. production growth has concentrated entirely in the Permian Basin, with other shale regions declining. Once the Permian's current gas production surge runs its course, supply growth should plateau and eventually decline, setting the stage for materially higher prices. |
Henry Hub LNG Shale Gas Permian | |
SilverSilver surged 51% in Q4 and over 140% for the year, staging a dramatic catch-up rally relative to gold. This magnitude of silver outperformance has historically marked important turning points, suggesting investors should consider reducing precious metals exposure in the short term despite the strong performance. |

NuclearNuclear power is the only source of carbon-free energy reliable enough to be considered base load energy. Nuclear plants are valuable and scarce assets as they are extremely costly and timely to build, with almost all US reactors built between 1967-1990. Politicians on both sides have become more pro-nuclear, leading to plant extensions, restart talks, and new tax incentives. |
Nuclear Base Load Carbon Free Scarce Assets Tax Credits |
Data CentersElectricity demand growth is accelerating as the US builds more data centers. AI applications are more compute intensive and require more electricity, with ChatGPT using 30x more electricity per query than Google search.

| TICKER | COMMENTARY |
|---|---|
| AMZN | One company we own that we think has unique positioning to benefit from both the infrastructure and application layers is Amazon. Amazon's logistical prowess is one of the foremost moats in business today and it can and will be enhanced with AI. The company will do this in multiple ways, with better orchestration of its logistics assets and underlying cargo, as well as the buildout of more capable, sophisticated and robust robotics. Amazon is singularly well positioned to dominate the coordination layer, with AI's help, across its entire logistics network. |
| CW | We initiated Curtiss-Wright, consistent with our high-quality growth orientation. We believe Curtiss-Wright is entering a period in which multiple near-term growth drivers are converging, including rising defense budgets, commercial aerospace production ramps, nuclear power plant life extensions and new builds, and submarine production. |
| GOOGL | In the third quarter, Google, Kairos Power, and the Tennessee Valley Authority announced a major collaboration centered on a novel power purchase agreement. Google followed this announcement with another significant step forward. On October 27, Google and NextEra Energy announced plans to restart the Duane Arnold Energy Center. |
| IBKR | Interactive Brokers saw weakness amid interest-rate uncertainty. |
| META | On January 9, Meta Platforms unveiled a new agreement with Vistra—the largest generator of competitive electricity in the United States—as well as with TerraPower and Oklo. The announcement builds on Meta's agreement last year with Constellation Energy and positions the company to become one of the largest corporate purchasers of nuclear-generated electricity in the United States. |
| NFLX | NFLX was the portfolio's largest detractor in 4Q25 following investor concerns around near-term subscriber growth and rising content spending. While revenue grew approximately 10% year-over-year, management guided to slower net subscriber additions in North America and Europe after recent price increases, and margins were pressured by elevated investment in live sports and international content. |
| TLN | Our power basket performed well with Talen Energy doubling. |
| WBD | Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) was the top contributor during the quarter. The U.S.-headquartered media company's stock price surged as multiple parties submitted offers to acquire all or part of the business. Following several rounds of bidding, WBD announced an agreement to sell its Streaming and Studios business to Netflix, while spinning the Global Networks business to shareholders. Paramount Skydance subsequently made a direct $30 per share offer to shareholders for the entire company. We are pleased with the steps the WBD board has taken thus far to unlock shareholder value. We will continue to closely monitor developments as this bidding war unfolds. |
| WISE | Wise is more vulnerable given that cross-border pay is considered a strong use case for crypto and stablecoins. To date, stablecoins do not have much traction in cross-border transfer due to much higher costs than traditional payment rails. Wise has continued to post strong financial performance, which gives us some solace that the risk is still theoretical. I believe Wise still has an opportunity to adopt stablecoin technology and retain its reputation as a disruptor. Wise has an outstanding track record of execution, and I trust management to make the right decisions. |
