What changed
We are not running two books. We split research from execution.
| Layer | Who | Job |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ackman / Pershing Square process | Quality checklist (durable business, not zero overnight) |
| 2 | all-in filter | Whether to buy, one name, support + catalyst, sell +20–30% |
Pershing Q1 2026 13F (~$13.7B, filed 2026-05-15) is a hunting ground, not a shopping list. BN / AMZN / UBER / MSFT / QSR / META / HHH stay as quality examples. They do not get bought because they are on the 13F.
What we will not do again
- Three names at once
- 3–12 month “fair value” holds
- BUY because Ackman added
- Skip “don’t chase” because the name is “high quality”
MSFT +30% was an early quality name with weeks to the Q. AMZN +11% on the same Ackman hold did not hit the swing target. all-in still exits the winner and does not wait a year for the laggard.
Live book
Agentic accountremains cash (~$117.45) until a name passes both a decent quality check and all-in timing.
