Couch Investor•Sep 27, 2026

Summary

Couch Investor provides a comprehensive update on the portfolio's performance, which significantly outperformed the S&P 500 recently. Couch Investor emphasizes the upcoming earnings season, specifically highlighting Micron as a key indicator for the AI memory market. Couch Investor believes that despite the cyclical nature of the industry, the scale of free cash flow generation expected for Micron in the coming years is unprecedented. Couch Investor also discusses technical setups for several major tech stocks, identifying specific buy zones and support levels for long-term investors.

Micron (MU): Couch Investor expects Micron to beat market expectations significantly in its upcoming report due to massive demand in the AI semiconductor sector. Couch Investor notes that the company is projected to generate over $168 billion in free cash flow by fiscal year 2028, which is a scale never seen before in its history. Couch Investor points out that the current forward P/E of 7.4 suggests the stock is undervalued given the projected growth rates.

Broadcom (AVGO): Couch Investor recently purchased 43 shares of Broadcom at a price of $352 to increase exposure to high-growth AI infrastructure. Couch Investor explains that Broadcom's AI revenue is expected to double in the next fiscal year and potentially double again the year after that. Couch Investor views the current valuation as very attractive compared to competitors like AMD, especially given Broadcom's faster expected growth and larger revenue base.

Netflix (NFLX): Couch Investor sold approximately 50% of the Netflix position due to concerns regarding its current valuation levels. Couch Investor mentions that the stock has reached a point where holding cash or rotating into higher-growth names like Nvidia or Broadcom is more logical. Couch Investor remains cautious and prefers to secure profits while the stock is trading near resistance levels around $77 to $80.

Alphabet (GOOGL): Couch Investor identifies Alphabet as being currently in a buy zone with a primary support level at $334. Couch Investor defines the 'bargain area' for the stock between $318 and $326 based on intrinsic value assessments. Couch Investor suggests that while the stock is trading around $343, it remains an attractive long-term hold with a resistance point at $350.

Uber (UBER): Couch Investor highlights Uber as a high-quality business that is currently trading in a 'major buy zone' between $67.5 and $70.5. Couch Investor points out that the company generated $10 billion in free cash flow over the last 12 months, making it fundamentally cheap. Couch Investor expects the stock to perform well as it continues to consolidate near its support levels just below the current price.
