What the colours mean

Each root, and the card it starts from

  • RoutineThe gap exists but means nothing. Most threads land here, and saying so is the point.
  • AlignedWords and filings point the same way, but nothing was promised.
  • KeptA checkable promise the filings confirm was honoured.
  • MissedA checkable promise with a deadline, and the deadline passed without it being met.
  • TellThe gap reveals something the words alone would not. Red stays rare on purpose.
  • Still openAn open question. It runs to the date something is due to settle it.
  • Open callA published forecast still running, scored at its deadline.
  • Call wonA finished call that was right. Blue, as on the board.
  • Call lostA finished call that was wrong. It stays on the board for good.

Each step along a root

  • SaidTheir own words: a post, a speech, an interview, a call.
  • TradeA buy or a sell in a disclosure report or a Form 4.
  • FilingAnother document on the public record.
  • Law or orderA vote, a bill, an executive order, a rule.
  • CourtA complaint, an order or a judgment.
  • DataAn official number: Treasury, Medicare, the Fed, an agency release.
  • EventSomething that happened and is on the record.
  • StockThe move since the thread opened. Green up, orange down.

Words are blue. Documents are grey and told apart by their icon. The last step takes the colour of the verdict, or of the question while it is still open. Nothing here claims one thing caused another: it is what followed, in order, each with its source.

ARK discloses trades daily, so her gaps resolve in days, not quarters. The recurring shape: thesis-level words stay constant while vehicle-level trades rotate underneath them.

She called the bitcoin bottom and sold four crypto names the same month, while buying ten times as much Coinbase and Circle: same thesis, different vehicles. Tesla shows the aligned version: bullish rhetoric matched by repeated dip-buying all summer.

Her words describe themes; her trades pick instruments inside the theme. Judging her statements against single tickers produces false tells. Judge them against the basket.

  • Open Palantir whipsaw: bought the June selloff, sold ~$23M into August rallies with no public walk-back of earlier praise. Needs an in-window quote to become a receipt.
  • Ongoing Bitcoin $730K-by-2030 base case: crypto basket net flows measure it monthly.
  • Praise of Palantir ("nothing like it in the software space") widely cited, but dated to early 2025. No in-window 2026 statement located yet.
