Your Agentic account is worth about $225.56 total — $133.40 sitting in cash and roughly $92 spread across four small positions: Archer Aviation (ACHR), Joby Aviation (JOBY), Lucid (LCID), and SoFi (SOFI), each currently worth $22–24.
Working from $133.40 in available cash, 40% ($53.36) split evenly into two ideas: $26.68 (high risk/reward) into ACHR — already your most volatile holding, roughly 4.2 more shares at today's close near $6.29 — and $26.68 (moderate risk/reward) into SOFI — your most liquid position, roughly 1.4 more shares at today's close near $18.91.
