The most successful AI hedge funds are run by people who actually built the technology.

Take Leopold Aschenbrenner. He’s a former OpenAI researcher who left to start Situational Awareness, an AI-focused hedge fund backed by heavy hitters like the billionaire founders of Stripe and GitHub’s former CEO. In the first half of this year alone, his fund returned 47% after fees, crushing the S&P 500 and most other hedge funds.

As we've talked about before, most hedge funds don't even beat the market. That means Situational Awareness is in a league of their own. And like with all leading investors, I keep close tabs on what they're investing in.

After all, who better to identify the winners in artificial superintelligence than the people who built it?

As I went through Aschenbrenner’s holdings, I noticed we already had a good amount of overlap in the TikStocks Portfolio. That overlap is a big reason why we’ve more than doubled the S&P 500’s return over the last year.

But there was one major theme in his portfolio we hadn’t touched yet. And I believe it’s going to be critical to capturing the next leg of the AI boom.

That’s why in today’s update, we’re adding this position and one other AI-play to the portfolio.
