E91: King of the Jungle Portfolio Review (Part 2)

One of our stocks is up 1,200%... so why are we thinking of selling? In Part 2 of our King of the Jungle portfolio review, the gains are bigger, the valuations are scarier, and the debate gets heated. We break down the massive winners, the surprising losers, and the tough decisions that come with managing a high-growth portfolio. These are our highest conviction plays and biggest winners of the last 18 months!

Here's what we cover:

🚀 12-Bagger Alert - Luke reveals his massive winner that's delivered a 1,200% return since the portfolio started. Is this performance sustainable, or is it time to trim at these valuations?

💰 The Great Conviction Debate - Why Krzysztof's worst performer (Chainlink) gets one of his highest conviction ratings, and why Luke's best performers are getting conviction downgrades due to "egregious valuations" $LINK

🌍 FinTech Global Domination - Deep dives into Wise (preparing for US dual listing), Nubank (conquering Latin America), and MercadoLibre (Luke's 9-badger conviction play that's becoming the Amazon of South America) $WISE $WIZEY $NU $MELI

⚡ The AI Infrastructure Play - Krzysztof breaks down Astera Labs' explosive growth in AI data center connectivity, plus his controversial thesis on IRIS Energy's Bitcoin-to-AI pivot strategy $ALAB $IREN

🛡️ Cybersecurity Reality Check - Luke's honest assessment of CrowdStrike and Palantir at today's astronomical valuations. Great companies, but are they investable at 28x and 100x sales respectively? $CRWD $PLTR

🚀 Space Race Showdown - The ultimate growth story showdown between AST SpaceMobile (building cellular networks in space) and Rocket Lab (Luke's 12-bagger that's literally going to the moon) $ASTS $RKLB

🔋 The Battery Bet Results - Krzysztof's obsession with EOS Energy pays off with a 344% return in their head-to-head bet, crushing Luke's 155% Axon gains. Is this the future of American energy independence? $EOSE $AXON

⚖️ Valuation vs. Conviction - How to manage exposure when your best companies become your most expensive stocks. Luke's trimming strategy for managing winners vs. Krzysztof's "never sell" philosophy

📊 The Scorecard Revealed - After starting $500 behind, Krzysztof has delivered 112% returns in just 7 months to nearly catch up with Luke's steady 65% year-to-date gain. The competition is heating up!
