Hi Saleem,

Posting early because I'm leaving out of town until Tuesday!

Last week: +6.81% (YTD: +37.31%)
Notable Leaders: ZENV PSNL GMBL AMRS BMBL (all >+14%)
Notable Laggards: ZIP

It was a breakout week for the markets and the portfolio, both closing at all time highs. The Fed (Powell), as expected, remains tilted dovish, which should provide support for growth and valuations going forward. Tapering "fears" appear to be nearly priced in, so I don't see much standing in the way of a year end market march towards 5000, even as the economy remains a little uncertain with ongoing virus variant concerns which may linger through the entire winter (keeping the Fed on the back foot still potentially). I made zero moves last week, and it shows that sometimes doing nothing is the right choice if one is comfortable with the portfolio composition. I look forward to the coming weeks as traders come back from summer breaks and position for year end.

Holdings: FSLR ESTC QRVO ZENV BMBL SNAP AGCO ZIP PHM ELY MNST LYFT DDD AMRS PSNL GRWG GMBL, cash 0%
