Their picks, scored

Across their last 20 scored bets: 70% hit rate, +0.59% mean alpha, trader score +1.70. Their last-14d mentions, direction-adjusted, have moved +1.4% since posting (mean over 32 mentions with price data).

Bullish on Nvidia, Tesla, duration and market regime

CestrianInc is constructive on mega-cap AI leadership via NVDA, initiating a TSLA/SPCX-linked long thesis, and holding duration exposure through ZROZ with TLT also preferred. The distinctive read is valuation and cycle-based rather than news-driven: Nvidia is framed as still undervalued, Tesla as having chart and SpaceX optionality, and the broader tape as a bull market. No clear fade or flip appears; the only explicit new action is opening the TSLA-related position and disclosing long ZROZ.

Direction this week

The week is net constructive, with concentration in NVDA valuation bullishness, a new TSLA/SPCX-linked long, and long-duration exposure through ZROZ/TLT. There is no evidenced fade or flip; the clearest action is initiating the TSLA/SPCX trade while separately disclosing long ZROZ. HOOD and RACE appear as post-hoc sales, not fresh bearish calls, while market-regime posts reinforce a general bull-market backdrop.

Grade is our human read-worthiness rating; trader score is a rolling 20-bet hit-rate/alpha composite — different things, often disagreeing. “Since then” is direction-unaware in the table; the summary line above adjusts for which way they leaned.
