Gigantes Research

Private access to how I operate with Kova.

Gigantes Research is where I share my market notes, portfolio decisions, risk management, research ideas, and the Kova-based process behind them.

$499 one-time access. Kova sold separately. Members receive preferred Kova pricing.

Public vs private

Where the thinking evolved. Where it operates now.

The newsletter remains public. The paid layer is where the current work, execution context, risk management, and member questions live.

Inside

Inside Gigantes Research.

No picks, no signals. You see how I make the call, how I manage risk, and the Kova review that keeps the plan honest.

Execution

What I'm doing and why

Risk

How I'm sizing, defending, trimming, waiting, or staying out

Research

Ideas, market context, and threads before they go public

Kova process

How the plan gets documented, reviewed, and refined

Background

Built by an operator, not a commentator.

I'm Juan Pemberthy, founder of Kova. I've spent over fifteen years building platform infrastructure at companies like Uber and GitHub, and I've had skin in markets for over twenty years. Gigantes Research is where those two worlds meet: systems thinking, market discipline, portfolio context, and the tool I built to keep the process honest.

Engineer

Platform infrastructure at Uber, GitHub, and Convergint.

Investor

Over twenty years with skin in markets.

Builder

Founder of Kova, the system of record behind the process.

Writer

Years of public market notes through Los Gigantes / Gigantes Research.

Public proof of work

Built on public proof of work.

Gigantes Research did not start from zero. It builds on years of public market writing, portfolio reflections, and the original Los Gigantes community. The public archive remains public; some legacy entries are in Spanish; the paid layer is the next operating space around the current process with Kova.
