PORTFOLIO IDEAS CLOSED IN JULY

Cantor Equity Partners I (CEPO) +17% in 1.5 months
This was a well-timed trade, aligned with where speculative capital was most active: anything even loosely connected to Trump’s administration or a crypto treasury pivot. CEPO was one of the SPACs linked to Howard Lutnick, a billionaire banker and now U.S. Secretary of Commerce, who has become a central figure in the administration’s pro-crypto push. Given the political and financial clout behind CEPO, it seemed likely to land a high-profile deal. Eventualy, it announced a merger with Bitcoin treasury firm Blockstream (BSTR). It was a bit late to the party (this niche had already gotten over-saturated at that point), so the reaction was softer than expected. Still, the idea returned +17% in 1.5 month.
