My Investment Performance Scorecard

I buy and share baskets of stocks called Coffee Cans.

The idea of a Coffee Can is simple: You try to find the best stocks you can and let them sit for years. You incur no costs with such a portfolio, and it is simple to manage.

Who Am I?

I’m Ahmad.

By day, I’m a Technical Product Manager at Facebook. By night, I’m obsessed with the Stock Market.

Earlier in my career, I was a VC at Longworth Ventures, a $120+ Million Venture Capital Firm. Prior to that, I was a PM at Microsoft and Groupon.

My experience in Venture Capital and Tech has led me to believe that the Venture Capital mindset applied to the stock market is one way we can all beat the market.

I’m on a mission to prove it.
