Dear Trader,
As you know, we’ve already put an aggressive strategy to work on Anthropic’s upcoming IPO.
And it’s crushing it.
It has already delivered 150% in a single day on IBM. And that’s just the start:
Now we’ve rung up another winner.
My latest trade just closed at +113%, and believe it or not, it was a bet against AI.
And yesterday, we closed another winner: a ServiceNow trade that returned 41.89% in eight days.
I have three more trades open right now, and I’m eyeing two potential closes over the next couple of days. I’m also adding two to three new trades this week on top of those.
The train has left the station. And it’s picking up speed.
If you’re wondering where this came from, it’s the next version of The H.A.L.O. Plan, which we first deployed during SpaceX’s IPO lifecycle.
We tested that first version in-house, because we wanted to prove the thesis before inviting anyone else in. We never bought a single share of SpaceX. We used basic options trades on some of the biggest companies in the world.
The results spoke for themselves.
We made:
Once SpaceX went public and started to slide, we made 258% and 100% on two trades that each lasted four days.
When the stock bounced, we collected another 46% over a weekend.
Altogether, someone following along could have generated a 481% return in 90 days, nearly 6X their money.
The H.A.L.O. Plan, which stands for “Hunting Anthropic-Linked Options,” is the upgraded version of that strategy, built specifically for Anthropic’s IPO lifecycle. Anthropic’s IPO is shaping up to be even bigger than SpaceX’s, and that’s why we have 10X in our sights this time.
We’ve been running it for a while now, and the results are meeting and exceeding our expectations. Here’s a look at some of the trades behind those numbers:
Here’s the part that matters: Anthropic hasn’t gone public yet.
I’m relatively certain the opening bell will ring the week of November 17th, most likely on the 17th, 18th, or 19th. If I’m wrong, the alternative date is November 12th.
It’s slated to be the largest IPO ever. Insiders are reportedly pushing for a debut above $2 trillion and a $3 trillion valuation by the end of day one.
The well-connected will do very well. The early angels, the venture capital firms, and the major corporations invited to invest at the start will realize hundreds of billions of dollars in profits almost instantly. That’s how the game is played.
Everybody else will be left fighting over table scraps…
And I don’t want that to be you.
That’s why my team and I built a strategy to profit from this IPO without ever touching the stock itself.
This is a 90-day mission, and we’re only in phase one of the IPO life cycle. The biggest moves are still ahead of us. But the trades are already live, and every week you wait is a week of winners you don’t get to ride.
So I’m looking to recruit a relatively small group to join us for the rest of this mission.
I’m not buying a single share of Anthropic, and I’d encourage you to think twice before you do.
I’m a professional trader, and I view most of my trades through a window of a few days. But like most folks, I also have money in companies I want to own for a long time. When I look at Anthropic’s IPO through that long-term lens, I don’t like what I see.
Let’s start with the valuation.
At $3 trillion, Anthropic would rank among the five most valuable companies on the planet. It would be worth more than Amazon, its number one investor.
Companies like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia earned their place at the top over decades of innovation and profits. Anthropic’s valuation would rest almost entirely on what people hope it will do someday.
Then there’s the competition…
I use Claude and ChatGPT every day, and I can tell you the big AI firms have a serious case of copycat syndrome. They hire each other’s people and train on similar data.
One week Anthropic says it has the best model, and the next week OpenAI says it does. It’s a lot like the Simpsons episode where Homer tours the Duff brewery and sees one pipe filling three different brands of the same beer.
The math behind the whole industry doesn’t add up yet either.
Right now, AI generates about $618 billion in revenue while spending roughly $2.6 trillion. Anthropic’s own projections call for a $30 trillion market. Meanwhile, China is offering AI models that are up to 90% cheaper, and somewhere between 30% and 46% of U.S. companies already use Chinese AI.
Put all of that together and you get the biggest reason of all: there’s no upside left for Main Street.
When Nvidia went public in 1999, most of its growth was still ahead of it. If Anthropic hits $3 trillion on IPO day, its valuation will already be up 481,441% since its Series A round. For Anthropic just to double from there, it would have to become the largest company the world has ever seen.
The insiders have already squeezed out the real gains.
We just watched this movie play out with SpaceX.
Its IPO broke records, and its market cap soared past $2 trillion. Within a month, IPO-day investors had lost $1 trillion.
I don’t want you to be the person holding the bag when it happens again.
While my team was doing our due diligence on SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI, something jumped off the page.
We call it “the Entanglement.”
In a normal free market, competitors act like competitors. In AI, the biggest companies have woven themselves together with so many circular deals that their fates are now linked in ways we’ve never seen before.
Take Microsoft for example.
It’s OpenAI’s biggest investor, and OpenAI in turn has agreed to pay Microsoft $250 billion to use its data centers. Microsoft has also invested in Anthropic, and Anthropic is paying Microsoft $30 billion for cloud computing. Money goes out the door as an investment and comes right back in as revenue.
Amazon is Anthropic’s biggest investor, and Anthropic is paying Amazon $100 billion over the next decade for data centers. So you’d think Amazon would steer clear of OpenAI, Anthropic’s number one rival. Instead, Amazon is investing in OpenAI too and renting it cloud computing.
Alphabet has a large stake in Anthropic and collects huge cloud payments from Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceX. Nvidia has stakes in Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceX, and even Intel, and nearly everything in this web runs on Nvidia chips. AMD invested $5 billion in Anthropic, and Anthropic will use that money to buy AMD chips. To land OpenAI as a customer, AMD even let OpenAI buy shares for a penny each.
Imagine Ford owning a big piece of GM while GM rents Ford factory space to build F-150s.
Would you call those two companies competitors?
Of course not.
Their profits depend on each other. In most industries that would never happen. In AI, it’s standard operating procedure.
Someday, this Entanglement will unravel, and I believe it will look a lot like the 2007 housing crisis.
When that time comes, I promise to give you plenty of warning. But it isn’t today, and it won’t be in the next 90 days. The major players have more than enough money to keep this train on the tracks for now, and like every bubble, there’s a lot of money to be made before it’s time to pay the piper.
My team studied 4,200 of the largest IPOs in modern history, across every industry, and found a remarkably consistent pattern. When a company goes public, its competitors tend to underperform. When a company cancels its IPO, its competitors tend to rally.
It’s so predictable you can almost set your watch to it. That’s why so many firms will bet against Anthropic’s “competitors” this time around.
I think that’s a trap. Nothing about this situation is normal.
Inside the Entanglement, Anthropic’s so-called rivals are really its partners. Anthropic’s IPO will act like a huge gravitational field at the center of it all, sending sudden bursts of momentum through these stocks and then pulling them back down to earth. We plan to profit from both moves.
This isn’t about hunting for risky penny stocks or buying lottery tickets. We’ll use targeted options trades to go after quick-hit payouts from the largest companies in the world.
Each week, we’ll make three low-dollar trades. Sometimes we’ll bet a stock will rise by buying calls, and sometimes we’ll bet it will fall by buying puts. We may trade some stocks repeatedly, and we may even trade both sides of the same stock.
The average trade lasts about seven days from start to finish, though some will be over in a matter of hours. We’ll trade Anthropic directly only once its options become available, which happened four days after SpaceX’s IPO.
We won’t win every trade. We’re projecting a win rate of around 74%. That’s why discipline matters so much.
I’ll be investing right alongside you, but never before you. You’ll always get a head start before I make my move.
Whenever I identify a target, I’ll send you a HALO Strike Order by email, text, or push notification, whichever you prefer. Each one includes my research, a risk assessment, and the projected upside, along with two sets of step-by-step instructions.
If you like to be hands-on, you can follow the first set and open and close each trade yourself. If you’d rather set it and forget it, the second set walks you through automating the trade.
The trade goes live only if it hits a predetermined milestone, then closes automatically at a second milestone and deposits any winnings in your account.
I personally recommend automating, because some of the best opportunities move fast.
Our CoreWeave and Amazon trades each lasted less than a day and paid 77% and 133%.
Our fastest Nvidia trade so far lasted just four hours and paid 89%.
When it’s time to exit a trade, you’ll get a HALO Payday Alert.
If you automated the trade, it’s a friendly reminder to check your balance.
If you’re trading manually, just follow the instructions, exit, and enjoy your winnings.
I’m identifying the trades and giving you everything you need to execute them.
But I’d argue the community aspect of the project is just as pivotal for our success. Which is why I’m hosting weekly HALO Live Briefings.
HALO 24/7 is a live chat room that’s open around the clock. I suggest you make this your first stop.
Login, introduce yourself and you’ll meet a lot of great people.
I’m in there all the time. So is my team.
We’re analyzing the markets. Brainstorming strategies. It’s more collaboration.
We will work together to make money together.
If you’re new to options, don’t worry.
The HALO Rapid Onboarding Program walks you through setting up your account, the basic terminology, and exactly how the strategy works.
You’ll also learn the HALO Double-30 Approach to portfolio management.
You invest the same amount in each trade for the first 30 days, double it for days 31 through 60, and double it again for days 61 through 90.
I estimate the minimum for any trade is around $150, but you’re free to invest whatever you’re comfortable with, or to wait until you feel ready.
My team includes professional traders from the NYSE and CBOE, veterans who have run AI and Black Swan funds, government insiders who have helped take companies public, and some of the best analysts and quants around.

In the not too distant future, the opening bell will ring and Anthropic will officially IPO.
The well-connected, the early angels, VCs and major corporations who were invited to invest at the beginning of the company’s rise will undoubtedly hoard the spoils for themselves.
That’s how the game is played.
Hundreds of billions of dollars in profits will be instantly realized by the fortunate few. Everybody else will be left fighting over table scraps.
But not you.
By joining The H.A.L.O. Plan you will be harnessing a fast-paced trading strategy that utilizes Anthropic’s seismic, earthshattering, (grossly overpriced) IPO to collect windfall after windfall.
