Snowflake SNOW crosses 50% return in the AI Portfolio after 556 days
As seen on the 24/7 Wall St. homepage on June 29, 2026.
After 18 months of swings from double-digit losses to 62% gains, Snowflake's AI bet finally broke through the 50% mark, delivering the kind of persistence that separates portfolio winners from washouts.

The road to a 51.3% gain was anything but straight. Since the position was opened, Snowflake's return swung as low as negative 15.2% before surging to a peak of 62.3%, and the chart shows at least two separate stretches where the position spent weeks in the red. That kind of turbulence tests conviction — and, according to the milestone, persistence is exactly what the AI Portfolio needed to stay in long enough to collect a meaningful gain.
The 50% threshold matters as a milestone because it represents a qualitatively different tier of return from the more modest double-digit moves the position generated along the way. Getting there required sitting through a drawdown of more than 15% before a sharp rally — the chart shows a jump to 68.5% at one point — ultimately settling at the current 51.3%. The gap between that peak and today's reading is a reminder that locking in a milestone number and sustaining it are two different challenges.

At 556 days since the position was announced, Snowflake is now one of the longer-running holds in the portfolio's history. What to watch from here is whether the 51.3% level holds as a floor or whether the volatility that defined the first 18 months reasserts itself — the chart's late swings from negative 15.2% back above 50% in relatively short order suggest this stock is still capable of large moves in either direction.
