Weekly Buying List Update.
Here is my watchlist & buying plan. Reaching those prices does not mean I always pull the trigger; those are only my view of valuation & price action today. I only pull the triggers on the ones I believe to be the best liquidity attribution at the moment - purchases are shared on my Savvy B&H portfolio.

I Got Married Last Week-End.
I usually don't speak about my private life nor my beliefs because I don’t think those ought to be shared here, on a service meant to beat the market. but I might be wrong to some extent, as what I want to do here is to build relations, based on trust and respect. Not just a service to beat the market, but a complete framework to do it healthily, with convictions. And this requires more than just stocks analysis.
Those who aren’t interested can scroll down, but those who believe investing is not only about numbers and quarterly reports can spend a minute or two reading those lines, and the ones to come in later write ups.
Today, I can say I am pretty proud of my life. Proud of having amazing friends - just a few, no one needs an army of them. A great family, an amazing person to share my life with and many lifelong projects which are moving towards the right direction.
Being proud is important, as much as being critical on what was done wrong through the years. Too much pride will make you do mistakes, but not enough will make you question your every move. I believe there's no happiness without an healthy dose of pride, or a more limited one.
I used to make fun of those who spent without counting on their wedding or said that it was the most beautiful day of their lifes, without any doubt. I always thought they were a bit much, never really believed it.
I was pretty wrong. Family, friends, experiences and memories are priceless, and a wedding regroups them all.
There is a point to those lines and it is pretty cliché but so very true. The work we do every day is important, but the final objective is to create more moments like this for ourselves. I have always been addicted to the game, beating the market, unlocking better results than others even more than the money itself. But the ultimate goal is not to grow a number on a screen.
So, back to the cliché; don’t forget to enjoy life. The hard work we put on is meant to unlock happiness. The low points in life usually come easily and without warning. But the high points always require hard work. That is why we are here, to put on the work. But let’s not forget to use its fruits for our own happiness.
Life is wonderful, a way too beautiful gift to be ignored.
That being said, I will be back at work 100% this weekend and am rested, motivated, excited, with tons of projects and content ready to come your way, full of valuable information to unlock above average returns.
This is where we do the work. And to each of us the ways to use its fruits and build ourselves our perfect life.
Macro.
Not much to comment, except for the FOMC on Wednesday and the decision on the U.S. interest rates, with the market expecting one or two rate cuts.
Not cutting would be bearish and it is hard to imagine how the market will react even with a cut, as I’d assume that one cut is already priced in, and would either not trigger any reaction or maybe even a small selling event.
It might finally be time. Or not.
I will not and would not play anything, I’ll stick with my plan and just buy more of the assets I like if they end up at a great price.
Watched Stocks and Portfolio.
Nebius, Microsoft & Financing.
I shared yesterday my detailed review and opinion on the deal between Nebius and Microsoft in a note. In a few words, this is very bullish but I would tune out the noise triggered by this news on social media, as it brought many engagement farmers and those are clearly not voices to listen to - only my opinion.
Here are the details.
Worth a read if you are invested or intend to buy in.
Transmedics Conference.
Another note shared a few days ago on a conference done with TransMedics’ CEO last week with tons of very valuable information.
TransMedics remains, to me, the best opportunity on the market and I usually do not overbuild positions but I am really heavy on this stock with more than 20% of my portfolio in the name - between options and shares.
The flight data is finally starting to pick up and my opinion remains the same: the market is skeptical on growth post seasonality, and needs confirmations before picking up.
And guess what? Flights are starting to pick up, with a daily average of 26 flights in September compared to 22 in August, with a reacceleration since the last days of August. We can also talk about the ground transports which cannot be measured and are growing in proportion since Q3, meaning there is more activity than we would expect based on the flights alone.
Still really bullish, still buying, and heavily invested.
PayPal Conference.
Alex Chriss, PayPal’s CEO was present at the Goldman Sachs Technology conference and gave some interesting data, although nothing really new.
You can find my detailed review of the event below.
Congratulations on the wedding! Wishing you and your partner all the best!
Congratulations on your marriage and accomplishments. You have a very bright future!
