I'm Going Full Time. Here's What's Changing.

I’ve got some big news. Until now, this newsletter has been something I’ve written on the side while working full-time. It was a place to document my investing journey and share my research with others.

Working on it part-time meant two things. First, I knew the newsletter wouldn’t reach its full potential. Second, I couldn’t dedicate as much time as I wanted to research and writing.

You’ve probably guessed by now, but I’m going full-time with my newsletter. This is a scary move because I’m leaving the security of having a regular paycheck, but I believe in myself, and I know this bet will pay off.

This change will allow me to improve the free weekly email by providing more in-depth analysis, and I’m also leveling up the premium subscription benefits.

Premium subscribers will get a private podcast feed of all my articles (you’ll get them via email, too), full access to my real-money portfolio, and at least 2x detailed research reports on my best stock ideas each month.

I made a mistake recently by falling into the trap of short-term thinking and paying attention to too much noise. Those two things are horrible for long-term investors.

So I’m refocusing this newsletter on finding, buying, and holding stocks with 10x return potential. Our only real advantage as individual investors is the power of extremely long-holding periods.

My first 10x research report on CNX Resources will be released on Tuesday. CNX has a management team that’s heavily influenced by Will Thorndike and the research he did for his Outsider Book. They’re aggressively buying back shares which I think will pay off for shareholders in the long run.

If you want to start a paid membership, I’m offering a 25% discount to the next 100 people who sign up.

If you are in college, unemployed, or facing financial hardship and would like to join the paid service, reply to this email for an aggressive discount or free subscription.

Portfolio Update

The portfolio was down $2,843 last week which isn’t bad considering the bone-head move I made with SQQQ early in the week.

Here’s a look at the new portfolio. The new positions turned in a strong performance to end the week with $DDOG up 7% and $LAD & $LOW each up over 4%.

Thank you so much for reading this newsletter and for your support over the years. I’ve been through a lot and you’ve been right here with me. I couldn’t make this change without you.

I understand the higher price point might not be affordable for some. If that is the case, please email me at Austin at TheGrowthCurve.org and let me know
