Here's what the Membership includes: Weekly portfolio updates to see what I'm holding and why, in-depth earnings coverage to stay on top of company results, new stock ideas as I find them, and dedicated strategy videos to sharpen how you think about growth investing.

The first two Membership videos are live now: a mid-month portfolio update and earnings review, plus a strategy video on lessons from poker for growth investors.

WPR's video summary

Hey all,

June was a decent month with some ups and downs. I also added back a few names as the total number of names in my portfolio expanded. Currently there are four starter positions in my portfolio with Hinge Health HNGE, Allegro MicroSystems ALGM, ChipMOS Technologies IMOS, and Toyo Inc TOYO.

Some aspects of this market I’m finding challenging, as many industries are seeing stock prices going up while the market anticipates demand. I’m still looking to stick to my overall strategy of investing behind strong quarterly results.
