I will do a monthly portfolio reveal, and the purpose of doing this is to put all the AI skills and prompts that I share in this community into a real test to prove the effectiveness of them.</span></p><p><em><span>Beware: you need to understand there is no AI that can guarantee a 100% winning rate, and it is not a get-rich-quick scheme in stock investing. We practise fundamental and value investing, so use it cautiously &#8212; the final decision is yours, not AI&#8217;s. This is just a sharing of my journey on experimentally using AI in my portfolio. It is not a buy/sell signal &#8212; all investments carry risk, so invest at your own risk.</span></em></p><h2><strong><span>3 Claude skills that I use most often in stock

The thing you stopped questioning is suddenly the thing you have to question.</p><p>So instead of just moving on, I sat with it for a week. I went back through my prompts, my trade log, and the actual conversation where Claude and I talked through the stock that caused the drop. </p><h2>Mapping out what actually happened</h2><p>Here&#8217;s my best attempt at organizing this, because &#8220;AI got it wrong&#8221; is too simple and, honestly, not even accurate.

That&#8217;s true whether it&#8217;s right or wrong. A shaky thesis and a solid one can read exactly the same: clean bullet points, a reasonable-sounding valuation argument, a tidy conclusion.</p><p>I didn&#8217;t consciously think &#8220;the AI is smart, so this must be correct.&#8221; But I noticed, going back through my own notes, that <strong>the more polished the AI&#8217;s answer looked, the less I pushed back on it.</strong> That&#8217;s the fluency trap: fluency is not the same thing as accuracy, but our brains process them as if they were.</p><p>The fix isn&#8217;t &#8220;trust AI less.&#8221; It&#8217;s <strong>treating a clean answer as the start of the checking process, not the end of it.</strong> If Claude gives me a thesis in five confident bullet points, my job is to go find the one bullet that&#8217;s doing the most work and stress-test just that one.</p><h3>2. AI Reads the Past, Not the Future</h3><p>This one is obvious when you say it out loud, and easy to forget when you&#8217;re mid-conversation with a tool that feels like it &#8220;understands&#8221; the company. Every model , Claude included  , is reasoning from patterns in data that already happened. It can describe a company&#8217;s history, its filings, its past guidance, and the shape of similar situations before. It cannot see the regulatory decision that hasn&#8217;t been announced yet, or the guidance cut that hasn&#8217;t happened yet.</p><p>What I actually want from AI in this spot isn&#8217;t a prediction. It&#8217;s a <strong>structured way to think about the range of things that could happen next</strong> , which is a very different ask than &#8220;will this stock go up.&#8221;</p><div><hr></div><h2>What actually caused the drop ?</h2><h2>This post is for paid subscribers .</h2>

I don&#8217;t have an investment philosophy, and I don&#8217;t have any big or motivational words to give you. The only thing I believe in and follow is Warren Buffett&#8217;s quote: </p><h2>&#8220;If you aren&#8217;t willing to own a stock for 10 years, don&#8217;t even think about owning it for 10 minutes.&#8221;</h2><h2>&#8220;Never invest in a business you cannot understand.&#8221;</h2><p>&#8230;and my own discipline: I do deep research on the fundamentals and the company&#8217;s future demand before deciding anything.</p><p>Lastly, if my intention is to buy a company just to get rich fast, I&#8217;ll skip it.</p><p>With AI, I can get data easily. However, if greed kicks in, I&#8217;ll go back to the principles above.</p><h2>Below is my 2026 portfolio P&amp;L.</h2><p><strong>Total positions bought in 2025:</strong> 18</p><ul><li><p><strong>ETF:</strong> 1</p></li><li><p><strong>US stocks:</strong> 10</p></li><li><p><strong>Malaysia stocks:</strong> 8</p></li></ul><p><strong>Total P&amp;L:</strong> 31.20%</p><p>I use AI to invest&#8212;not as a buy/sell signal, but to speed up research and decision-making.<br>If you want instant access to the full breakdown (what I bought, why, and what I&#8217;m learning), become a supporter and subscribe.</p><p>In 2025, I tested MOBY, Danelfin, Perplexity Finance, and ValueFarm (for Malaysia stocks).
