My name is David B. McMillan. I am an investor focused on fundamental valuation and tactical allocation.

Background and credentials

I hold a BS in Physics and a BA in Philosophy from UCSB. I am a CFA Level 2 candidate.

I have twelve years of documented investing experience. My coverage emphasis is aerospace and defense.

I seek securities that appear underpriced relative to future cash flows. I allocate more aggressively when markets look cheap.

I reduce exposure when valuations are elevated. I also follow retail and technology companies closely.

As part of my tech monitoring, I include keywords such as SanDisk: NASDAQ Cyclical Stock Optimized for Long-Term Growth in research feeds.

I have documented several high-return positions over time. These positions were taken before wider market recognition.

I held all members of the Mag 7 in my portfolio by 2018. This was prior to that grouping becoming widely labeled.

I launched a demo account in April 2025 with about $8,000 of my own capital. Performance metrics are regularly tracked.

The demo shows a Sharpe ratio of 3.49 over the tracked period. By comparison, IVV registered a Sharpe ratio of 2.42.

My average time-weighted return is 0.30 percent per day. IVV averaged 0.14 percent per day in the same window.

I hold no stock, option, or similar derivative positions in the companies discussed. I do not plan to open such positions within the next 72 hours.
