In this episode, Richard sits down with the Minervini Private Access team — Mark Ritchie II, Brandon Hedgepath, and Bob Weissman, the 2025 U.S. Investing Championship money-manager division winner with a record 115.4% return. Together, Mark and Brandon turned about $100,000 into more than $20 million using Mark Minervini's methodology, and in this session they walk through the exact trades they made in 2025.


Bob shares his charts and Mark and Brandon break down entries, sizing, stops, sells, and the mindset behind every position. Real prints, real risk management, no theory. If you want to see how a Minervini-style playbook actually looks in live 2025 markets, this one is a must-watch.


What you'll learn:


✅ How Mark and Brandon turned $100K into $20M over 13+ years

✅ The full STX case study — first base off the April lows, VCP, and the shakeout that improved the setup

✅ Selling into strength — Bob's 115% year and why he took profits early

✅ Position sizing, universal stops, and the never-move-stops-down rule

✅ Back-stop selling vs. resting trailing stops on gap-ups

✅ FLNC and MOD pullback-buy entries out of stage-two uptrends

✅ ARM, IREN, and NBIS — short-term "grand slam" trades and multi-day continuation

✅ Why the team is bottom-up, not top-down — letting the market pick the theme

✅ Holding through earnings — how derisking gives you the option

✅ How to shorten the learning curve without shortcutting the reps


Enjoy!
