Can a few exceptional stock market winners make up for the investments that don’t work out?

In this week’s market update, Andy uses a hypothetical model to show how our growth strategy has participated in major winners such as Tesla and Cisco over the past 30 years. He also examines stocks that resulted in losses—and how, overall, the gains from the strongest winners outpaced those losses.

This week’s discussion covers:
• How a growth strategy manages both winning and losing stocks
• Why a few significant winners can outweigh several smaller losses
• The four stages of a growth stock’s market cycle
• Where Apple, Tesla, Bloom Energy, Corning, and Palantir may currently fall
• Why understanding a stock’s stage can be just as important as knowing the company

Andy’s Weekly Market Update|When Doing Nothing Is a Position| September 3rd 2026

Since May, the stock market has resembled a game of whack-a-mole, with one concern quickly replacing another. Short-lived rallies, rising interest rates, uncertainty about artificial intelligence spending, and earnings-season volatility have made this a difficult environment for investors to navigate.

In the September 3 weekly market update, Andy examines the forces driving recent market activity and considers what investors can learn from Jesse Livermore and Warren Buffett about patience and discipline. During periods when attractive opportunities are scarce, “doing nothing” does not necessarily mean being unprepared. Holding Treasury bills or cash can itself be a deliberate position—one that provides stability, flexibility, and the ability to act when conditions improve.
