YTD Update:
OPFI +43%
PYPL -11%
EAT +19%
LRN +22
URBN +37%
AGX +53%
DXPE +22%
CLS +79%
INTA -34%
CRDO +37%
His top 10 is up 26.7% ytd, which I'd say is fairly pedestrian in this market.
S&P is up 8% and Nasdaq is up 10%

i don't think you understand what those words mean
do a 10 year of 27% vs 8%

I'm sure there are many here that are doing better than Cress this year.

I was thinking of this thread just the other day. I bought a few shares of the above.

Not worth paying for? To be triple the value? How much are these picks and we can calculate a value you would have needed to invest.

Yes the probably <1% of people outperforming nearly a 27% return over not even 7 months makes this fairly pedestrian

And how many of his top 10 lost?
Right now two are down this year. Of the eight gainers, one is up 12%. The remainder are all up 20%+, most are up 30%+.

Our definition of pedestrian is vastly different. Any hedge fund that had these numbers for any length of time would be closed to new investors because it would have so much money it needed to invest. 27% gains mid year is epic. For perspective…
An initial $10,000 investment that earns 8% per year, without any further investments would be worth just over $100,000 in 30 years.
An initial investment of $10,000 that earns 27% per year, without any other investments, would be worth over $13 million in 30 years.
Nobody can sustain this level of growth that you consider pedestrian.

Ridiculous to think 27% is not worth paying for.
Caveat is that I don't pay for advice, but would not be disappointed with 27% when the s&p is getting 8.

I don't usually either, but if i missed out on 27% i paid on the back end, not up front

Im generally fairly bullish in the short term; but reading a ridiculous indicator sentiment like this has me here questioning that.
3x+ over sp is pedestrian. What are you gonna tell me next; that SE is going to change the world?

I am so sorry that I used the word pedestrian to describe Steve Cress's picks. Please forgive me.
Posted on 7/25/25 at 12:06 pm to bayoubengals88
Im not sure where it’s going from here, but please keep us posted when his new picks come out
Cress you say? And when are they released for next year? 1/1?

I don't follow Cress or Seeking Alpha, so you pairing that word with that name means nothing to me.
You pairing that word with a performance 3x+ SP500 is what made me post.

Anyone gaining 27% consistently is either the top fund manager in the country or engaged in criminal activity.
