Portfolio Update (January 2026)
YTD: +16.79%
Welcome back to Coughlin Capital.
Each month, I’ll share a portfolio update covering current holdings, performance, and any changes I’ve made. If I start a new position or exit one entirely between updates, I’ll post about it in the subscriber chat.
Thanks for reading. If you want full access to portfolio updates and real-time position changes, consider going paid.
I’ve been looking forward to writing this one.
If you’ve been following along, you know I mentioned back in December that I was starting fresh. I set up a friends and family advisor account through IBKR where I’m now managing my brother’s and a close friend’s accounts alongside my own.
Three separate accounts under one umbrella. The holdings are mostly the same across all of them, with a few small differences here and there, but I’m tracking everything together as one portfolio.
Anyway, here’s where we’re at.
Through the end of January, the portfolio is up +16.79% YTD. SPY did about 1.5% over the same period.
As you guys will see, a lot of the names are going to look familiar if you’ve been reading along. The philosophy hasn’t changed. I’m still looking for quality businesses at reasonable valuations, still concentrating in my best ideas, still trying to be patient.
