We recently published an article titled Billionaire Chris Rokos. In this article, we will look at Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) position against Chris Rokos' other stock picks with huge upside potential.
One of the characteristics of an investor who defines as a billionaire is the ability to make money, regardless of market conditions. Chris Rokos is an example. For example, in March 2025, hedge funds rose 3.4% due to increased volatility. Meanwhile, large asset managers such as Point72, Citadel and Millennium work hard to handle volatility.
Christopher Charles Rokos is a British hedge fund manager. After nearly 10 years with Goldman Sachs, he co-founded Brevan Howard in 2002, where he traded interest rate products. In 2015, he founded Rokos Capital Management. As of 2025, asset managers have approximately US$20 billion in managed assets (AUM). Rokos is the fund's Chief Investment Officer (CIO).
Billionaire hedge fund managers made the most of Trump's election last November. Rokos made nearly $1 billion in profits a day after Trump’s victory, according to a Bloomberg report. According to the report, this is an "excellent transaction performance" since its operation began in 2015.

Victory did not stop there. Since the election victory, Trump has helped to rally and rout with almost equality. But, it is interesting that Rokos keeps increasing profits regardless of market conditions. Thanks to Trump's push for the rally in November 2024, Rokos Capital Management ended the year with a return of 31%.
In early April 2025, Trump's tariffs triggered a big sell-off, and many hedge funds lost money. But not Rokos. Asset managers rose to 4.5% in the first two weeks of the month. As of mid-April 2025, this earning helped hedge funds reach 8% annual earnings.
However, it remains to be seen whether Rokos Capital Management will continue to win this year, especially given the market conditions. On Monday, May 5, 2025, the S&P 500 snatched from a nine-day rally, the longest winning streak in 20 years. The broader market index fell 0.64%, while the Nasdaq fell 0.74%, and the Dow Jones lost 0.24%.
Market observers cited by CNN lower tariffs. For example, Jed Ellerbroek of Argent Capital Management said, “The market is very concerned about the final state of tariff rates and it bounces every day as these assessments change.”
Senior technical strategist Tom DeMark told Bloomberg that a bear market could be a situation soon. "The top is imminent. There has been too much technical loss. Stocks are now vulnerable and if anything quickly changes the global trade outlook, it's easy to get hit."
However, it is not surprising that Rokos Capital manages earnings from the bleak market (if the current forecast holds true). They have done it before. Therefore, it seems wise to understand the stock picks of hedge funds, especially those with huge upward potential.
