Momentum, Milestones, and the "Sector Reset"
We are closing in on 1,000 subscribers. To celebrate, I’m launching our first proprietary indices. Which one do you want first?
Last week, we looked at how the market is currently panicking over the “AI Apocalypse” in the software sector. The sentiment has shifted from “software is eating the world” to “AI is eating software”.
The TL;DR on the AI Reset:
The Herd is Panicking: Investors are fleeing SaaS giants like Salesforce and Adobe, fearing that generic LLMs can replicate decades of specialized enterprise logic over a weekend.
Systemic Value remains: Companies like ServiceNow and Salesforce are the “Operating Systems” of the enterprise. You don’t move a company’s entire sales history just because of a new bot; you plug the bot into the existing system.
Verified Truth is a Premium: In a world of AI “hallucinations,” companies that own high-fidelity, verified data (like FactSet) or regulatory pathways (like Veeva) become more valuable, not less.
Be the Fox: Outperformance comes from being a “historian of hysteria”. The market always over-corrects, and the strongest trees are often revealed only after the fire has cleared the brush.
Building the “Atomic Moat” Media House
First of all, thank you.
In just over 30 days, this community has grown to around 850 investors. We are closing in on the 1,000-subscriber mark much faster than anticipated.
But Atomic Moat was never meant to be just a newsletter. My vision is to build a modern Investment Media House. A centralized hub providing the data, the “alpha,” and the systems you need to navigate the markets.
To celebrate our first 1,000 subscribers, I am preparing the launch of our first proprietary Index Dashboard. These indices will systematize world-class strategies, giving you a clear edge in your research.
I need your vote
I want to launch the tool that helps your research process the most.
These are live model portfolios consisting of specific stocks that meet the strict criteria of each strategy. Think of them as your proprietary “Investment Universe” dashboards.
The Multibagger Index: A dynamic portfolio of high-growth companies screening for asymmetric 10x potential.
The Cannibal Index: A curated list of companies currently executing the most aggressive share buybacks.
The Insider Index: A real-time tracker of stocks where management is deploying significant personal capital.
The Spinoff Index: A portfolio of recent market divestitures positioned for post-separation outperformance.
The Superinvestor Index: We apply the strict frameworks of legends like Peter Lynch, Nick Sleep, and Terry Smith to today’s market. These are not copies of their current holdings, but a collection of stocks that meet their specific criteria, such as identifying the next “Scale Economies Shared” case for the Nick Sleep index.
The winning index will be available to everyone during the launch week, before eventually moving into our Premium Tier.
Thank you for being part of this journey from the ground floor. Let’s hit 1,000.
Rob, Founder, Atomic Moat
PS: I want to hit the 1,000-subscriber milestone before we roll out the winning Index. If you find my content useful, please share this poll with one fellow investor. Your recommendation is the only way we grow.
