I/O Fund continues its Staggering Lead in the Tech Sector
Considering that we are not a buy-and-hold portfolio and instead manage risk through hedging and raising cash, the closest comparison in terms of style would be hedge funds. Our current performance since inception places us as one of the top-performing actively managed portfolios in the world, with an annualized return of 27.6% since May of 2020. Our ranking would be #2 in the United States, ahead of famous fund managers such as Pershing Square, Tiger Global and Citadel. Source: Levelfields and Chartartisan

The Power of Risk Management
I/O Fund owes its lead over other all-tech portfolios to technical analysis.
Portfolio Manager, Knox Ridley’s manages the portfolio in real-time, providing readers with weekly webinars, trade alerts and charts to show where the I/O Fund plans to buy and sell key positions. His active management style has led to an exemplary period of outperformance during some of the more volatile years in technology investing.
From 2022, Ridley started using an automated hedge to drive outperformance.
"The million-dollar or even billion-dollar question that has yet to be answered is how to not simply participate in tech, which anyone can do, but rather how to safely participate in tech. The I/O Fund set out to be the first to answer this question, which is why our returns significantly outperform buy-and-hold strategies,"
Ridley is known for creatively managing high-risk assets, including long-term positions such as Bitcoin, Nvidia, as well as temporary positions such as Super Micro’s meteoric rise in 2024, which he closed with over 200% gains from our original entry in mid-2023.
He issues real-time trade alerts to research subscribers for every stock entry and exit plus offers a pie chart of the portfolio’s allocations. Investors gain access to Knox's risk management strategies when they register for Advanced Market Signals.
Behind I/O Fund's Excellent Portfolio Gains
I/O Fund owes its lead to research from rare talent, Beth Kindig
Lead Tech Analyst, Beth Kindig, is a veteran of Silicon Valley, who is regularly featured in Tier 1 media, including FOX business, CNBC, and Bloomberg. Her deep-dive research and systematic fundamental analysis have helped the firm:
- Build its highest allocations in the complex semiconductor industry, which was the best-performing sector in tech in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024.
- Impeccable timing on Nvidia and other AI stocks led to the I/O Fund having one of the highest allocations to AI on record at 45%. Previously, the firm was early to cloud in 2019, then rotated into AI in 2022.
“We are unrivaled when it comes to choosing artificial intelligence winners. Nvidia was our highest allocation, yet there are many other AI winners the I/O Fund is poised to capture. We beat Wall Street to an explosive moment for AI and we plan to beat Wall Street again to other AI leaders,”
Kindig is often featured in Tier 1 media including Bloomberg, CNBC and Fox Business Network for the quality of her research -- these coveted spots are reserved for only for the very best analysts in Wall Street.

I/O Fund Reviews
Thank you Beth, you are awesome
Beth, your analysis is second to none. When I saw your FOX News interview on YouTube, I had to check out your company and become an I/O Fund member. I also love how you take complex technical topics and explain them in simple terms that everyday folks like me can understand. Wishing your I/O fund can ride this AI story to new heights. So glad you stared your own company.
NVIDIA now vs. Apple 20 years ago - For individual investors, diversification is a myth. Retail investors don't have time to follow and analyze X number of stocks in Y number of fields, just in the name of diversification. 20 years ago, I had thousands of Apple shares. I didn't know what I was doing, so every time it made a little money, I sold a little AAPL. I also tried to be too cute with covered calls. I was in the boat to the promise land and I jumped out. I missed the boat. If I had kept all my shares, I could've retired by now.
NVIDIA is now my second chance. I had bought some NVIDIA in 2021 and 2022 and more in Dec of 2023 when I sold all my other stocks and just bought NVIDIA. Now 100%+ of my stock portfolio is NVIDIA (including 1200 on margin). Plan to hold this for the next 5-10 years.
When we marry, we marry one person. When we get a pet, we get one pet, maybe two. When we work, we work for one employer at a time. So yeah, I believe in Jensen Huang the way I believed in Steve Jobs. For me, while it is very tempting to sell NVIDIA and buy other AI related companies. I am sticking with NVIDIA.
I love your analysis on the whole AI wave. No one does it as well as your firm. Thank you for all you do and who you are.

I am a fairly new member and I just wanted to comment on what a great job and service you provide. Your analysis is very thorough and most importantly full of statistics and facts which helps me distill what matters most.
I particularly really learn a lot from Knox Ridley’s weekly chart Webinar’s which are extremely helpful in taking the emotion out of trading and rather focusing on buy/ sell ranges and momentum.
He does an outstanding job simplifying macro factors and explaining stock movement patterns, keeping it simple, and filtering out the noise that can be very confusing.
Thank you very much,

Beth, your comments are always thoughtful, but here your perspectives illustrate superb intellect, Street savvy and are, seriously, outstanding. Anyone following this story should listen to your comments a few times... they will imo prove to be prescient wrt revenue and earnings growth.
WTH is the matter with the two dufus interviewers from Bloomberg laughing as you were, being as nice as possible, not to repeat your insightful comment "Never underestimate Wall Street's ability to miss the bigger picture" -- shared when you first dismissed the comments about margin concerns. I think they should both be fired for laughing at your steadfast bullishness when you tried not to call him an idiot for repeating his negatyive bias and focusing on why gross margin clip of 2% for maybe a Q (but being restored by year end) . Incredibly unprofessional on their part -- and demonstrating that neither one of them understand how powerfully correct you were on every one of your points here.
As a 35 year Street veteran with top of hedge fund performance metrics over the entire time, I simply want to share that I think this was actually one of the most insightful and powerful reviews I have ever seen any analyst share. Congratualtions to you! It will be fun to look back on this as the Street scrambles to take estimates up more than 50% for FY2026.
