The Friday Fletcher Report: June 19, 2026
Hello and happy Friday! Welcome back to the Fletcher Friday Report. Today is June 19th, 2026. Quick intro for anyone new: Fletcher is an investment algorithm with straightforward monthly signals — buy, hold, or sell. I'm Kyle Dreyer, an individual investor (not a financial advisor), and I've been running roughly a third of my portfolio through Fletcher since January 2026. Today we'll check in on performance, compare it to the S&P 500, and see where things stand. No signals today — just the numbers.
Where Things Stand with the June 1st Signals
Fletcher sends its buy/hold/sell signals on the first of each month, and the June 1st batch is now in the green. The first couple of weeks were a bumpy ride with all the market volatility, but as of yesterday's close (the market is closed today for the holiday), those signals have turned positive. Nice to see after the chop.
On the broader market — honestly, I'll admit I've been a bit heads-down this week. I'm not watching the general market all that closely; my attention stays concentrated on Fletcher and the ETFs I hold. I let Fletcher handle all my individual stock picking, and I've gotten pretty comfortable with that division of labor.
One thing worth noting: Fletcher now makes up over 45% of my portfolio. That wasn't really the plan — I started at around 30% — but it's outpaced my other holdings by enough that it's naturally grown to dominate the mix. Not complaining.
The Numbers
- This week: Fletcher +12%, S&P +1%
- Month to date (since June 1st): Fletcher +20%, S&P -2%
- Year to date: Fletcher +226%, S&P +9%
I know a week or even a month isn't really the right lens for judging performance — I'd rather look at one- or two-year windows for that. But year-to-date, it's hard not to smile at those numbers. 226% versus 9% is exactly the kind of gap Fletcher was built to create.
A Fletcher Signal Worth Highlighting
Fletcher's been getting some attention in the headlines lately, and there's a good reason for that. Back in October of last year, Fletcher signaled SandBK at $120 a share. Yesterday, SandBK broke $2,100. Do the math — a $10,000 position at that signal would be worth over $180,000 today. That's the kind of result that makes the whole thing feel very real.
Day Trading: A World Beyond Me
I had an interesting conversation this week with a friend who's deep into day trading. I'll be upfront — that's not my world, and it never really has been. But he told me his goal is a 40% return per month. Forty percent. Per month. I don't know if he's hitting that or not, but the number alone is wild to think about.
It got me curious — are any of you day trading? What kind of returns are you actually seeing? And for those of you who do both, how do you think about splitting your allocation between something like day trading and a longer-signal approach like Fletcher?
For my part, I'm sitting at 45% Fletcher with the rest mostly in ETFs, and I'm not planning to pull back. Fletcher has earned its place in the portfolio — I'm just going to let it run.
Another positive week in the books, up 12%. Thanks for reading along, and feel free to drop any questions my way. To learn more about how Fletcher works, head over to FletcherInvestor.com.
Have a great week — see you next Friday.
