Copy my long-term tech stock portfolio on eToro
I invest in a focused portfolio of technology-led businesses and publish the research behind my decisions. CopyTrading allows eligible eToro users to automatically mirror the portfolio, including future changes.
Portfolio principles
Long-term horizon
Research-backed
Growth-oriented
No leverage
Investment philosophy
Patient ownership of businesses with room to grow.
I look for companies benefiting from durable changes in technology and the economy. The goal is to own strong businesses while their long-term opportunity develops, not to predict every short-term market move.
Research starts with the business, its market, financial strength, and valuation. A stock enters the portfolio only when the opportunity and risks make sense together.
Primary objectiveLong-term capital growth
Decision styleCompany by company
Portfolio structureFocused and growth-oriented
What I invest in
Companies positioned around structural growth.
The portfolio combines established technology leaders with selected smaller companies where the long-term opportunity may be larger than the market currently recognizes.
AI picks and shovels
Semiconductors, memory, data-center equipment, networking, and the physical systems supporting AI growth.
Smaller innovators
Higher-risk companies with credible technology, expanding markets, and the potential to become much larger.
ETFs and digital assets
Limited complementary exposure where diversification or a broader theme is more appropriate than one stock.
What I avoid
Risk that depends on perfect timing.
Avoiding unnecessary complexity helps keep the portfolio understandable for me and for anyone choosing to copy it.
Leverage and short selling
I do not use leverage or short positions. Both can magnify losses and make timing more important than the underlying business.
Frequent trading
I do not build the strategy around daily market moves. Trading activity is driven by changes in the thesis or opportunity.
Stories without evidence
A compelling theme is not enough by itself. I look for financial progress, competitive strength, and a realistic path forward.
Risk profile
Growth potential comes with volatility.
Technology and smaller growth companies can fall sharply even when their long-term story remains intact. Copying this portfolio requires comfort with periods of meaningful underperformance and loss.
I manage risk through research, position sizing, diversification across businesses, and a long time horizon, but none of these removes the risk of losing capital.
Portfolio styleGrowth-oriented and volatile
LeverageNone
Capital riskLosses are possible
Holding period
Measured in years, not market headlines.
Most positions are intended to be held for at least two years. I may hold much longer when the company continues executing, or sell earlier when the original thesis changes.
Patience matters because business progress rarely moves in a straight line. I expect earnings cycles, market corrections, and periods when a good company is temporarily unpopular.
Typical horizonTwo years or longer
Reasons to sellBroken thesis, full valuation, or better opportunity
Market noiseSecondary to business progress
Current portfolio themes
Where the research is currently concentrated.
Themes guide where I look, but every holding still needs to stand on its own business quality, financial position, valuation, and risks.
Semiconductors and memory
Critical components supporting rising computing demand and increasingly complex workloads.
Data-center infrastructure
Power, cooling, networking, and advanced electronics required to build and operate modern data centers.
Cloud and software
Businesses using scale, data, and recurring services to serve customers across the digital economy.
Emerging disruption
Selected opportunities in automation, fintech, energy transition, and other markets shaped by innovation.
Why I publish research
Copying should begin with understanding.
Publishing the reasoning behind holdings creates a transparent record. It allows copiers to understand what the portfolio owns, why it owns it, and which developments could change the view.
Research does not guarantee a correct decision. It makes the assumptions, evidence, risks, and trade-offs visible before and after capital is committed.
Public recordCompany-level research
Portfolio visibilityCurrent holdings and performance
Decision updatesMaterial changes explained on eToro
Research-backed process
A repeatable framework for every company.
Each investment is reviewed through the same broad questions, helping separate an attractive business story from an attractive investment.
Understand the opportunity
Review the business model, addressable market, competitive position, and the forces that could support long-term growth.
Test the financial evidence
Examine revenue, profitability, balance-sheet strength, cash generation, valuation, and the expectations already in the price.
Track the thesis
Follow company execution, risks, and valuation over time. Add, hold, reduce, or exit when the evidence changes.
