Introducing the MacroEdge Flagship Growth Portfolio
By: @SixFinance, Head of Research
Every position and every change in this book has been tracked on Plutus since July 2, 2026.
We didn’t build MacroEdge Flagship Growth to track a benchmark or beat the S&P 500 by a couple hundred basis points in a good year. It exists for a single reason: to find the largest macro mispricings in the market, own the most leveraged way to be right about them, and compound capital at a high rate across full market cycles.
The “Growth” in the name isn’t an expectation to trade alongside growth ETFs or mutual funds. It represents our capital appreciation target. We aim to make money regardless of what broader equity markets are doing.
The Mandate & Portfolio Construction
This is an absolute-return, concentrated macro book. You should not expect a diversified 50-stock portfolio here. We will typically hold fewer than 20 positions.
Macro regimes shift, and this portfolio moves with them. We have no interest in sitting in losing investments for long periods just to maintain a static strategy. We predominantly trade global equities (with a heavy US domestic focus), ETFs, and options when we want maximum convexity.
Every single idea starts with two questions:
What does consensus already believe?
Where is that belief creating asymmetry?
Once we find that gap, we hunt for the maximum leverage to the thesis. We aren’t looking for the safest company or the best-run business on paper. We want the security with the most operating and financial leverage to the thesis from today’s price.
A great business bought at a fair price simply cannot offer the upside that a hated business at the bottom of its range can offer. We want to know what the emergent theme is, why capital is going to flow to that area of the market, and when that shift is likely to happen.
Hunting for Troughs, Not “Value”
This is not a traditional value investing framework. We aren’t buying things just because they look cheap on a historical multiple.
Instead, we invest in assets that are deeply underappreciated by the market in areas that are about to inflect, both in their underlying fundamentals and their security prices.
We spend a massive amount of time looking for troughs. We want stocks, sectors, or whole asset classes that have suffered large drawdowns where something meaningful is beginning to change that the market has not yet priced in.
Current Macro Environment & How We Are Positioned
Three months into tracking this portfolio, the macro backdrop is fascinating:
The S&P 500 sits at all-time highs, heavily concentrated in tech equities, while equity breadth is the worst it’s been since 2000.
Interest rates sit at 20-year highs, global yields are ramping, and France is bordering on a sovereign crisis.
Employment is weakening, credit spreads are starting to expand, and global inflation remains elevated as central banks tighten.
An energy crisis is on our doorstep, with diesel prices sitting at all-time highs.
We adjust as the landscape changes. As yields rose, employment weakened, and credit spreads began to widen, we added long duration treasury exposure to nearly 40% of the portfolio.
Large opportunities in new trends are emerging, and we plan to capture them.
Conclusion
MacroEdge Flagship Growth is designed to compound capital at a high rate across full market cycles by systematically exploiting macro asymmetry, capturing high-leverage inflection points, and remaining completely unconstrained by market benchmarks. As we continue to execute on this absolute-return macro mandate on Plutus, MacroEdge Research is actively expanding its specialized coverage. We are currently in the development phase of our upcoming Oil and Gas Growth and Income Portfolio, led by Don Johnson (@DonMiami3), our Chief Economist. Alongside this new strategy, we also have two private market oil and gas vehicles currently in development.
