Happy Monday, Light Brigade!
Well it’s 2026. At kung fu, Chrissy and I are calling it “2026 — The Year Of The Kicks” because we are working on improving the height and control of our round kicks. Lots of thigh strength-building exercises. I should have a similar theme for investing. “2026 — The Year Of The… Just Sticking To The Rules… No Tricks.”
Not sure that works. But you get the idea. Let’s just keep doing what we always do. With a bit of luck, the market will continue to reward us like it has over the last six months.
Let’s see where the portfolios are at this week!
All the best,
Cameron

DISCLOSURE
Please review our trading and disclosure policy.
FOR NEW MEMBERS
If you’re new to QAV Light, here’s a quick reminder on how it works.
- We send you an email every Monday advising which stocks we are adding to our Light portfolio.
- You can copy our trades, but please remember to review our Trading Guidelines to understand which cap you should be looking at and other important considerations. And consult a financial planner before making any decisions.
- We don’t recommend that you add stocks which are already in our portfolio. Their position on our buy list might have changed since we recommended them. Just start with the stocks recommended after you become a member.
- If one of the stocks we add breaches one of our sell conditions, we will sell it from our portfolio and you’ll get an email advising of the trade. Again, you can copy our trades, but seek financial advice before making any decisions. And please check your Rule #1 price (see Trading Guidelines).
- If you come across any QAV terminology that you don’t understand (eg Rule 1, 3PTL, Possibles, etc), please review our terminology guide or just email us for clarification.
That’s it for today!
If we decide to buy or sell something, we’ll let you know.
