Stock Comets

← Stock Picker ← Research

A "comet" is a thematic basket organized around a trigger event — the head is the catalyst (IPO, buildout, policy shift), the tail is the set of stocks expected to be dragged along in its wake.

Vertical Push

Head: RTO · Trigger: Return-to-office inflection / supertall groundbreaking · Status: live · 10 members

The CBD/skyscraper thesis as a tradable basket. The head is the return-to-office inflection — or the next supertall groundbreaking; the tail is the office-REIT complex (BXP, SLG, VNO, KRC, HIW), the brokerages that lease the towers (CBRE, JLL), the engineers who design them (ACM, J), and the elevators that make verticality possible at all (OTIS). When cities push upward, this basket feels it first.
