Under CEO Beth Wozniak-the kind of executive who probably ends meetings with “Let’s circle back in Q4 and *actually* close the loop”-nVent has pulled off one of the most low-key corporate transformations since Office Depot realized nobody needed three-ring binders anymore. In 2025, they sold off their thermal management division for $1.75 billion, because apparently keeping things cool wasn’t cool enough. Then came the strategic rollouts: swallowing Avail’s infrastructure solutions for $975 million (think enclosures, switchgear, and the electrical equivalent of HVAC for data centers), plus the 2024 $695 million Trachte acquisition, which gave them more protection enclosures than a paranoid sysadmin has firewalls.

I have always suspected IPOs to be the corporate invention that most cruelly mocks its own purpose: a ritual where founders offer their lifeblood to the altar of liquidity, only for wolves in suits to snort it like champagne before feasting on the bones. Nevertheless, I found myself compelled, like a moth to the flame of human folly, to add ServiceTitan (TTAN) and Klarna Group (KLAR) to my portfolio-a gesture as meaningful as planting seeds in a desert.

If I were to place my bet, it would be on Broadcom (AVGO), a name that has quietly crept into the AI conversation. The partnership with OpenAI is recent, though still shrouded in some ambiguity. What is clear, however, is that Broadcom is better poised for long-term success, a fact that could reveal itself as soon as 2026.

Anderson’s secret sauce? He’s the human version of a Google search bar: always ahead of the curve. Remember when he bet on Netflix when it was just a DVD-by-mail service and Tesla when it was a car that couldn’t even make a left turn? And look where we are now-stock prices soaring, and us, still trying to figure out how to charge our phones.

Leading the charge are the growth stocks, those sprightly figures that have found their moment under the heady lights of artificial intelligence. Investors, caught in the excitement of this new technological dawn, have embraced the promises of AI with enthusiasm that borders on fervor. The projections are grand, the AI market to reach trillions by the early years of the next decade. And yet, beneath the surface of these predictions, one wonders whether all the promises will manifest as neatly as anticipated, or whether we shall see another grand scheme falter beneath the weight of its own ambition.

As a market analyst, I’m seeing that finding promising new AI stocks is becoming more challenging given current high valuations. However, I still believe there are good opportunities. I’m focusing on solid, reliable AI companies – the ones that can weather market fluctuations – and also keeping an eye on companies that are underperforming now but have the potential to benefit significantly from AI advancements.

Wood’s optimism-a near-blind faith in technological salvation-echoes throughout history. And yet, beneath her calculations lies a profound tension. She speaks of safety, her words heavy with the sweet scent of statistical certainty: safety has improved by a factor of three since mid-2024, now teetering on the edge of the U.S. human accident rate. But are we so certain? How many times have the prognosticators of the past been fooled by their own brilliance? Was it not the same hubris that led to the great collapses of empires past?

In a statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (a document not exactly teeming with excitement), Sound Income disclosed its decision to trim its Cisco position by 60,131 shares. The value of this reduction? A modest $4.10 million. Post-sale, the firm still retains 334,755 shares, which, as of September 30, 2025, hold an aggregate value of $23.42 million. A tidy little sum, wouldn’t you say?

As is the way with these things, Seneca House Advisors made the decision to liquidate its Diageo holdings during the third quarter of the year. The sale, comprising 35,043 shares, was valued at $3.53 million, based on the average market price for the quarter. In plain English: they sold their entire stake and now report no exposure to Diageo. The curtain has fallen on this particular investment.
