THESIS — thematic
investment dashboard.

A live dashboard tracking a portfolio organized by investment thesis — AI infrastructure, defense, biodefense — not individual tickers. Pulls real prices, scores financial headlines with NLP, and runs a Random Forest model to predict 30-day outperformance vs SPY.

Biodefense initiated Jan 2025 — pre-event positioning ahead of next outbreak cycle.

Random Forest classifier trained on 3 years of daily price history. Predicts probability each theme outperforms SPY over next 30 days. Updated weekly.

Theme buckets, not tickers

Portfolio organized around investment theses — "AI infrastructure is undersupplied" — not individual stocks. NVDA, AMD, TSM, and MSFT are all expressions of the same thesis.

λ

NLP sentiment on 2,000+ headlines

Every headline from Yahoo Finance RSS, CNBC, WSJ, ProMED, CDC alerts, and Breaking Defense scored daily by FinBERT — fine-tuned on financial text, not generic VADER.

Random Forest prediction

Trained on 3 years of daily price data. Features: 5/20/60-day momentum, realized volatility, theme-vs-SPY relative return. One model per theme, one per ticker.

Biodefense early warning

Monitors ProMED outbreak reports, WHO news, CDC health alerts. Thesis: mRNA platforms compress vaccine development from years to months. SIGA holds the only FDA-approved smallpox antiviral.

Jan 2023 — AI Infrastructure
Initiated NVDA. AI training compute will be undersupplied for 3–5 years. GPU shortage = picks-and-shovels. Added MSFT, GOOGL, META as hyperscaler beneficiaries.
Apr 2023 — Defense
Added LMT, RTX. Ukraine conflict exposes Western stockpile depletion — multi-year re-armament cycle. Added PLTR: AI battlefield analytics is structural, not a one-time contract.
Sep 2024 — Energy Transition
Initiated nuclear basket (CEG, VST). AI data center power demand creates sustained need for carbon-free baseload. Thesis: AI → energy scarcity → nuclear.
Jan 2025 — Biodefense & Pandemic
Initiated biodefense basket. CDC tracking elevated hantavirus cases — 38% case fatality rate, no approved antiviral. mRNA platforms compress vaccine timelines from years to months. SIGA holds the only FDA-approved smallpox antiviral (TPOXX).
Mar 2025 — Healthcare Infrastructure
Added TMO, DHR — lab infrastructure is picks-and-shovels for pandemic response and genomics. ABT rapid testing was proven at scale during COVID.
