Chris Camillo

Public investor associated with social-arbitrage research and occasional high-conviction position discussions.

No performance verdict. This profile records public statements. It does not establish current holdings, exact executions, or a profitable follow strategy.

Method

How this profile is tracked

Track only dated, asset-specific public statements. Separate a thesis, a claimed position change, and independently verified execution.

Historical · recounted 2011Retrospective account

Snapple

shorted

Camillo said that as a teenager he noticed Snapple losing shelf space at a convenience store, bought put options, and roughly tripled a $300 stake after an earnings miss. This illustrates the origin of his method, but it was documented retrospectively and cannot be scored as a prospectively captured signal.

Chris Camillo Public-Position Tracker

Test whether explicit, public position disclosures can be followed profitably after they become available to everyone.

CCPTFrozen 2026-07-20No performance verdict
Entry
Enter long only after an explicit first-person statement that a listed stock was bought, added, or is currently owned. A bullish thesis or watchlist mention does not qualify.
Sizing
Equal-weight eligible active positions, capped at 20% each. Hold unused allocation in cash. No leverage, margin, options, or inferred position sizes.
Trim
Reduce the model position by 50% after an explicit trim disclosure when the disclosed amount is unknown.
Exit
Exit after an explicit full sale, a bearish reversal, or 180 calendar days without a qualifying position update.
Execution
Use the next regular-session open after the source is public. Apply a 10-basis-point entry cost and a 10-basis-point exit cost.
Benchmark
SPY total return over identical capital-weighted holding windows
Excluded
Retrospective trade stories · Private or paid-room calls without a durable timestamp · Unlisted assets · General market forecasts · Tier lists without an ownership statement

Validation boundary

What happens next

  1. Confirm each item against the original recording and the investor's own dated channels.
  2. Classify thesis, claimed position, add, trim, exit, and correction separately.
  3. Use the first market price after public release—not a private or estimated entry.
  4. Track all calls prospectively, including abandoned ideas and losses.
  5. Publish a verdict only after a frozen sample and chronological holdout.
