I invest in these sectors. The disclosure block sits at the very top of every issue, before any analysis, in both editions, never deferred to the end.
Some positions are held through vehicles whose terms bar naming them. Those are not disclosed. What is disclosed is that they exist, how many, and whether any sits in a company the issue discusses. Where one sits in a company an issue would otherwise forecast, no forecast is published and the recusal is stated by name.
Each issue publishes a SHA-256 commitment over the private position record. The hash reveals nothing; it fixes the record at publication, so it can be produced later and checked against what was published.
As of the positions record's version date, rendered from the sealed file with every issue.

A position marked recused gets no forecast; the issue that covers it says so.
Shown on the entry itself and repeated here.
1. Forecast systems and public companies, not private ones. Cost curves, cadence, regulation, government programmes, market structure, and public-company disclosures. A private company appears in an entry only through a milestone it has publicly stated itself — a probability on the company's own claim, never on its business. 2. Recusal, published: no company-specific forecast where I hold a restricted position, am seeking allocation, or am an LP in a fund that holds the company. The issue says "no forecast on X in this issue" without naming why. From 15 September 2026 the same applies to a commitment to any syndicate, SPV, or fund vehicle in which the company is a portfolio company or target, from the date of commitment, whether or not the vehicle closes. 3. Forecast, never verdict. Every entry carries a falsifier and a "what would change my mind." Whenever a company is named in an entry, the operator's-note box is offered to it before publication.
An interest in a fund that holds a covered company is an indirect position and is disclosed as indirect exposure through a fund interest.
Anthropic is a customer of companies covered here, and its models are used to produce the research. Probabilities are set by me, by hand, and never by a model. How an issue is written and sourced is on the about page.
Stated at the top of every issue from W1, 15 October 2026: any intent to take or exit a position in a company that issue names, or "none".
