The flock’s flying high again — with the top 7 positions now making up ~40% of the portfolio! That’s 6 points over last month showing how conviction is compounding 📈🪶
🏆 Top 7 Gainers August 2025:
$3679 (-1.29%) — Japan's quiet beast Zigexn is back on top with +18.6%, still among Patito's favorite conviction plays (6.60% of the nest).
$GRLA — Groenlandsbanken holds strong with +10.7%, proof you don’t need hype to win.
$WCP (-2.51%) — Our favorite dividend dripper slows slightly but keeps marching with +10.5%, and making up for largest holding (10.65%) as we have progressively added to the position. It doesn't show there but we have already received another full 1% in dividends since our start in February that have been fully reinvested to the portfolio. Did we mention it's a monthly dividend payer?
$CALM (-0.39%) — A new protein-powered entry: Cal-Maine cracks into the top 7 with +10.1%. 🍳
$HME (-2.44%) — Small Canadian energy keeps climbing, also +10.1% and currently holding the title for our top dividend score in our scoring system
$RBW (-0.24%) — Polish pick surprises with +8.84%, diversifying with promise.
$2330 — Taiwan Semi still making chips and making gains: +8.35%, and holding 6.03%.
