The Trade That Turned $50K Into $1 Million in 13 Months

from Rigatoni Capital Podcast · host Colin Santucci

If you had invested $50,000 in SOXL around Liberation Day lows of around $9 per share just 13 months ago, your position would be worth over $1 million today with the 3x Bull ETF now trading above $180. This morning I walk through that trade, why it is a legitimate example of professional buy the dipping at its finest, and why there is absolutely no shame in making that kind of money on a leveraged swing trade even if you consider yourself a long term investor. I also go over some AI disruption headlines in software and why I think there is probably some hidden value in software stocks right now, but it is genuinely hard to pick the right name. ServiceNow is one I am not sure about yet.Rigatoni Capital is a daily morning podcast for long term, buy and hold investors. This is not a show for short term traders or people looking for quick wins. Every morning I go through the most important headlines in finance, markets, and macro, and call out fake narratives in the financial media so you know what actually deserves your attention and what to ignore.Subscribe to Rigatoni Capital on Substack: https://rigatonicapital.substack.comDisclaimer: This blog is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.
