- ALAB: Position increased +109% to $369M — signals a stronger bet on AI chip interconnect solutions
- NVDA: Fully sold at $653M → re-entered at $218M — valuation concerns cleared before re-entry
- ZM: New position at $106M — diversifying into AI collaboration software
NVDA was fully exited from its $653M position and re-entered at $218M (4.4%), while MU and COHR — sold at $200M and $166M, respectively — were also rebuilt as the portfolio was reshuffled. New buys included five names: ZM ($106M), CRDO ($102M), PANW ($90M), VST ($79M), and AKAM ($78M), while SNOW was cut 70% to $22M.
Outlook
Even as he trimmed QQQ, Gavin Baker sharply increased individual growth stock positions like ALAB and U, signaling a shift from index-tracking exposure toward more selective, stock-picking bets. The sell-then-rebuy pattern in NVDA, MU, and COHR suggests tactical rebalancing aimed at buying the dip during a valuation correction. The addition of new cybersecurity and infrastructure names like PANW and AKAM reflects a bet on rising security demand amid expanding AI infrastructure investment.
