Why We Think This Portfolio Outperforms
The Thesis

Most mass tort analysts make the same mistake: they chase the case everyone is already talking about. By the time Roundup is on the cover of Law360, the plaintiff pool is picked over and the only attorneys making money are the ones who got in three years ago. Portfolio 1 is built on a different principle — diversification across four independent dimensions that most litigation analysts never think about simultaneously.

Category diversification protects against macro shocks. A single regulatory reversal, a single adverse Daubert ruling, a single bankruptcy filing can devastate a single-category portfolio. Portfolio 1 spreads across environmental, pharmaceutical, medical device, and tech sectors. A setback in one holding does not move the others.

Stage diversification creates a return curve, not a lottery ticket. The litigation tracker above makes this visual. Transvaginal Mesh is in Stage 4 maturation — cases actively resolving with validated values. PFAS, Social Media, EtO, and Suboxone are Stage 3 active litigation — MDL infrastructure built, bellwethers approaching. Keytruda, Ozempic, and Video Game are Stage 2 formation — early enough that the market has not fully priced them. No single time horizon. No waiting five years for everything to resolve at once.

Defendant depth is non-negotiable. Every position in Portfolio 1 faces a defendant with the balance sheet to pay. Merck. Novo Nordisk. Meta. Every one of them has the reserves to resolve at scale. A case against a defendant who files bankruptcy is not a case. It is a claims process.

The fourth dimension is one no other platform publishes. The Jacob Score incorporates plaintiff availability — how findable cases are in the real advertising market — weighted at 40% of the composite. One position in this portfolio has been validated at six-figure case volume. That is not a projection. That is a data point. The market will eventually price that advantage away. It has not yet.
