$100M ARR. 1,000 companies in 8 weeks.
And people on here still posting "AI is just hype" from their MacBooks while their competitors automate entire departments.
The cope is wild.
You're not gonna "wait and see" your way through this one. The companies signing up aren't waiting.
They're replacing the people who are.

Let me explain.
Iโm human. Like everyone else, Iโm not immune to emotion. But experiencing $ASML ~50% drawdown in 2022 and ~40% drawdown in 2025 produced little emotional response for me. If anything, it felt more like an opportunity to increase ownership in a business I deeply understand and believe in.
That reaction isnโt accidental.

If you own a lower-quality business with a weak moat, similar drawdowns feel very different. Fear is amplified. Doubt creeps in. Adding becomes psychologically difficult because uncertainty is genuinely high. And thereโs risk of permanent loss of capital.
$ASML was the opposite.
There is a much higher degree of certainty about its role in the global semiconductor ecosystem.
