Ma stratégie d’investissement pour les 10 prochaines années
Main summary
Key takeaways
Finance-focused summary (markets / investing / portfolio construction)
Core portfolio thesis & framework (“three-burrows” + four-quadrant compass)
The creator outlines a 3-part, long-horizon “Three Terriers” portfolio designed to benefit from a revolutionary economic period—where an old order collapses and is rebuilt differently.
A four-quadrant compass is used to:
- Anticipate value shifts
- Choose high-risk assets to target high returns
- Maintain low or uncorrelated exposure to moderate overall portfolio risk
- Allocate to “antifragile” assets (assets intended to benefit from stress/volatility rather than merely survive it)
Disclaimer / disclosures
Key disclosures and framing include:
- “I have nothing to sell today.”
- Many details are not fully discloseable, including items like private equity purchase terms and some valuations.
- Performance figures are presented as personal/estimated, with uncertainty in valuation inputs.
- Mentions “this isn’t your money, it’s mine” and notes he is recording around Sep 14 (BTC price may change before publication).
- No explicit “not financial advice” subtitle is apparent, but the strategy is framed as personal capital and personal approach.
Portfolio construction (step-by-step / methodology)
1) Private equity (“burrow” #1): concentrated, not diversified across many deals
Rationale
- Avoids the “buy 300 companies/year” style approach.
- Claims average PE fund performance is just above ~10% (“pretty meh”).
- Prefers heavy initial bets in companies the founders strongly believe in.
Current holdings
- Antimateur (co-founded unicorn)
- Amount not restated as a public $ figure; used for portfolio “balancing.”
- Zoy
- Invested €2,000,000 (~$2.3M).
Disclosure limits
- Monitoring is difficult because financial terms and full results cannot be publicly disclosed.
Estimated/assumed valuation gains
- For tracking gains, he sets:
- Zoy = 0
- Antimateur = 0
- Reason: private equity is illiquid, and he cannot disclose terms/results.
2) Off-plan high-end real estate (“burrow” #2): concentrated in “pivotal countries,” currently Dubai
Thesis
- Emphasizes off-plan purchases in pivotal regions (a geopolitical “bridge” between major blocs).
- Focuses on situations that may be framed as antifragile, such as improved access during/after geopolitical disruptions.
Stated countries/examples
- Mentions Switzerland, Singapore, Dubai, Miami, with the active example being Dubai.
Developers (Dubai)
- Al Barari
- Associated with the Zaha family: founder Zahal Mohamed Zahal with Mohamed Zahal
- Zaya
- Founded by Nadia Zahal
Purchases & prices (end of 2025 / around conflict period)
- At Cape de Al Barari 1:
- 4-bedroom duplex: $3.7M, with $1.4M paid
- 3-bedroom apartment: $2.0M
- Additional upgrades/transactions leading to:
- 2 Solaya houses in Zaya
- Described as 5-bedroom villas on 800 m²
- $4.4M each → $8.8M total
- With ~$1.4M paid
- 2 Solaya houses in Zaya
Real-estate payment / valuation notes
- He claims that despite the Iran–Emirates conflict, pricing for these specific developments did not fall.
- Instead, he claims roughly ~+10% on-the-ground versus what broad market indices suggest.
- Cites Sep 13: Iran announced an agreement with the Emirates (conflict subject reportedly ended), but he advises caution due to recency.
- Dubai population/tourism indicators (as stated):
- Claims Dubai population decreased by 61,000 due to the conflict
- Projects increase by ~160,000 vs end-of-2025
- Says high-end restaurants were reportedly full
- Tourism season starts end of October
- Mentions it’s still ~37°C at recording time
Golden Visa (Dubai)
- Golden Visa requires roughly $550,000 in real-estate investment.
- Claimed benefits:
- Easier residency/admin
- Reduced banking frictions
- Access to a checkbook
- More banks
- Ability to open a local business with less friction
- A “plan B” if issues arise
- He states he will still pay taxes in Switzerland (no tax implications are emphasized; framed more as administrative flexibility).
3) Bitcoin strategy via “Bitcoin by-products” (Strategy by Michael Saylor exposure)
Thesis
- Bitcoin is framed as a potential new “monetary shelling point,” competing with gold.
- Targets a “several million dollars” scenario but stresses risk.
- Instead of direct BTC buying, he buys equity instruments that offer Bitcoin exposure with leverage/structure.
Main company named
- Strategy (Bitcoin Treasury company; associated with Michael Saylor)
Investment instruments (explicit tickers/structures)
- MSTR: 24,000 shares at $130
- Stride preferred shares: 27,450 shares at $68
- Strike shares: 13,800 shares at $72
“Perpetual bonds-like” mechanics (as described)
- Stride
- No principal repayment
- Receives $10/year
- Strike
- No principal refund
- Receives $8/year
- Includes an option to convert to MSTR (no conversion deadline mentioned)
- Alternative liquidity
- Can sell shares in the secondary market
Yield / cost / risk management numbers
- Approximate yields at purchase prices:
- Stride @ $68 → ~14.7%
- Strike @ $72 → ~11% plus an indefinite-term option (as described)
- Borrowing cost:
- Claims borrowing at roughly ~5% (e.g., Lombard credit / margin loan)
- Volatility management:
- He claims volatility is lower for Stride/Strike than MSTR to help manage the Lombard loan.
Portfolio allocation value for the Bitcoin bucket
- Basket is stated as ~$6M total.
Volatility disclaimer
- Notes BTC price began fluctuating again around the week of Sep 14, so charts referenced may become outdated later.
Key numbers & performance metrics mentioned
Portfolio size and evolution (as of recording)
- Initial capital: ~$13.4M
- Current valuation: ~$14.2M
- Implied upside: ~6% (about ~$800k)
Real estate unrealized gains & leverage explanation
Sellability heuristic
- A +5% increase is framed as enough to sell “immediately without hesitation.”
Capital gain math using leverage
- Example “Sole 2” (property name partially unclear due to subtitle noise):
- Home price: $4.4M
- Paid so far: $650k
- Price increases by ~5%: $4.4M → $4.6M
- Adds ~$220k unrealized gain
- Unrealized gain on invested capital: $220k / $650k ≈ 34%
- Warning:
- The percentage gain declines mechanically over time as more principal is paid, even if the asset price continues rising.
Stated real-estate gain range
- Claims Dubai real estate can show capital gain between ~20% and ~34% on invested capital (driven by leverage).
- Mentions valuation variance:
- He “doesn’t really believe” a +20% increase shown by an index/platform he displays.
- Cites that estimates did not match reality in areas he knows.
Income / yield assumptions (Bitcoin bucket)
- Stride yield: ~14.7%
- Strike yield: ~11% plus option (as described)
- Borrowing cost: ~5%
Explicit investing recommendations / cautions
- Prefer concentrated, high-conviction private investments over broad diversification across hundreds of PE deals.
- Use design principles like uncorrelation and antifragility to reduce reliance on a single regime.
- For Dubai real estate:
- Emphasizes timing access via network + payment plan conditions
- Warns narratives can shift quickly during conflict-related periods
- Warns about differences between marketing valuations and actual deal reality
- For Bitcoin:
- Don’t necessarily buy BTC spot
- Consider structured Bitcoin by-products (Strategy preferred/levered vehicles) to balance volatility vs leverage
- Highlights volatility control to better manage Lombard loans
