QAV Light Weekly Update #205

Hap­py Mon­day, Light Brigade!

I hope you’re all safe from the fires and stay­ing out of the heat. Speak­ing of heat, yes­ter­day Chris­sy and I went to GOMA to see the Ola­fur Elias­son exhi­bi­tion, which was amaz­ing. Here’s a pho­to of his sun, which is some­thing to behold, and is sym­bol­ic of what it feels like around Aus­tralia at the moment. If you’re a fan of Buck­min­ster Fuller, the exhi­bi­tion is def­i­nite­ly worth check­ing out. 

Olafur Eliasson's sun GOMA

Any­way, let’s see where the port­fo­lios are at this week! Hope­ful­ly every­thing is… sun­ny. 

All the best,
Cameron

PORTFOLIO UPDATE

In the last 30 days, the Light port­fo­lio was +3% vs the index which was ‑0.6%.

Our most impres­sive return for the last 30 days is min­ing ser­vices com­pa­ny MAH which is +27% over the last 30 days and +50% since we added it on 3/11/2025.

For the last 12 months, the Light port­fo­lio is +40% vs the index +8%. In oth­er words — QUINTUPLE MARKET. Insane. It won’t last, of course, But it should give us a nice buffer for when things bal­ance out. I’ve learned that over the years. We have peri­ods of ter­rif­ic out-per­for­mance, and that’s bal­anced by peri­ods of under-per­for­mance and aver­age per­for­mance. Over the long term, we aim for an aver­age of dou­ble mar­ket.

 

Since incep­tion (Feb 2022), the Light port­fo­lio is +21% vs the index +10%.

FOR NEW MEMBERS

If you’re new to QAV Light, here’s a quick reminder on how it works. 

  1. We send you an email every Mon­day advis­ing which stocks we are adding to our Light port­fo­lio.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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).
  5. 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.
