{"data":{"slug":"capex-hawk","name":"The Capex Hawk","paperPortfolio":true,"aiGenerated":true,"paused":false,"thesis":"Hyperscalers and other large AI buyers have committed to the biggest capital spending cycle in the history of computing. That money does not stay with the buyers. It flows to the companies that get paid to build: chips, memory, networking, optics, servers, power equipment, cooling, construction, and the utilities and fuel that keep it all running. The Capex Hawk follows announced capex guidance, data center projects, and power deals from the buyers down to the suppliers who collect the checks, and holds the names where that spending is most likely to show up as revenue. The thesis is judged in public against benchmarks.","notional":100000,"benchmarks":["EW_UNIVERSE","SMH","SPY"],"dataAsOf":"2026-11-02","summary":{"navLatest":88494.27,"navDate":"2026-11-02","inceptionDate":"2026-08-25","returnSinceInception":-0.11505729999999992,"maxDrawdown":-0.20498137918878412,"vsBenchmarks":{"EW_UNIVERSE":{"benchmarkReturn":-0.13896169999999997,"excess":0.023904400000000048},"SMH":{"benchmarkReturn":-0.08547729999999998,"excess":-0.02957999999999994},"SPY":{"benchmarkReturn":-0.018030700000000066,"excess":-0.09702659999999985}}},"cash":17.14,"cashWeight":0.00019368482321724994,"totalValue":88494.285279,"holdings":[{"ticker":"NVDA","slug":"nvidia","shares":39.631,"costBasis":213.05,"lastClose":202.06,"lastCloseDate":"2026-11-02","marketValue":8007.83986,"weight":0.090489909430347,"unrealizedPnl":-435.5446900000006,"unrealizedPct":-0.05158413517953542,"thesis":"NVIDIA silicon is named directly in the largest tracked builds, including Microsoft Fairwater Mount Pleasant, Stargate Abilene, and the SB Energy PORTS Pike campus that NVIDIA guaranteed for its own AI compute.
