The position layer
Value Aligned Research Advisors
Seventeen filings, from a $221m long-only book to $40.1bn across 123 positions. It picked stocks for two years and then changed shape. Over half the reported value is now option underlying, which is not the same thing as money.
The manager behind VAR AI Fund, LP and VAR AI Offshore Fund, Ltd. It files from Princeton, New Jersey, reports no other included managers, and its filings are signed by its COO/CCO. We do not name a portfolio manager because the filings do not, and neither should we.
This is the closest public book to the argument this site makes: semicap, memory, optics, power generation, the datacenter build, and the miners that turned into neoclouds. That makes it useful in a way a fund page usually is not — its wins and its drawdowns are evidence about the thesis, not only about the fund.
READ THE OPTION LINES BEFORE QUOTING A SIZE. In the June 2026 book, 51% of the $40.1bn sits in call rows, where a 13F reports the value of the UNDERLYING and not the premium paid. The capital actually at risk is smaller than the headline by an amount the filing does not disclose, and no arithmetic here can recover it.
The first seven filings cannot be priced and never will be. Our point-in-time archive begins 2024-07-29, the provider sells a rolling window, and a session that ages out cannot be bought back. So the book before Q3 2024 is shown as filed, with no forward marks, rather than priced against a restated series that would look better and mean less.
The book, filing by filing
Each book is priced held unchanged from its report date, marked at every quarter-end since. The large figure is the move over that leg alone; the small one is cumulative from the report date. Long is capital at risk. Put and call lines are the notional value of the underlying, which is not money anyone put up — so the three are never added.

- No price series — ACMR, GOOG, BW, BKV, EQT, FCX, FTAI, GTLB, HNRG, EEM, LGN, LBRT, QCOM, TAC, TSSI, ZM. Held, and outside our sessions, so excluded from every total rather than carried at zero.
- Unmapped CUSIPs — 9 line(s). A 13F names an issuer and a CUSIP, never a ticker; anything not in our map is reported here rather than guessed at.
What a 13F cannot say
- Each book is priced held UNCHANGED from its report date. These are counterfactuals — what that filing would have done — never the manager's realised P&L, which depends on trades no outsider can see.
- An option line reports the value of the UNDERLYING, not the premium paid. There is no dollar profit or loss on an option in a 13F, so none is stated here.
- A rise in a put's underlying is a move AGAINST the holder. A put may be an outright bet or a hedge and the filing cannot say which.
- Ordinary short stock is not reported in a 13F at all. An absence is not evidence.
- A 13F is a snapshot filed up to 45 days after the quarter it describes.
- An index or sector ETF line is a view on a sector, never on a company.
Read alongside
- Situational Awareness LP — The other AI book we page. Concentrated where this one is broad, and it did not survive the rout.
- The Power Wall — The generation and grid names are the largest single layer in this book.
- The Memory Wall — SanDisk, Micron, Western Digital and Seagate, held together and hedged apart.
