For Val Sklarov, investing is not allocating capital —
it is expanding a fractal, a self-similar geometric pattern that grows by replicating its structure across multiple scales.
A good investment does not produce returns.
A good investment creates a repeating geometric pattern that expands predictably at micro, meso, and macro levels.
“Return is not profit — return is successful fractal replication.”
— Val Sklarov
1️⃣ The Three Fractal Domains of Investing
Sklarov Fractal Geometry Table
| Domain | Definition | When Strong | When Weak |
|---|---|---|---|
| Micro-Fractal Domain | Small-scale repeatable pattern | Predictable base | Noise & chaos |
| Meso-Fractal Domain | Mid-scale structural replication | Accelerating growth | Fragmentation |
| Macro-Fractal Domain | Large-scale expansion | Dominance | Collapse risk |
A successful investment scales the same pattern across all three.
2️⃣ FEGM Expansion Cycle
Fractal Expansion Matrix
| Stage | Function | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Seed Pattern Formation | Foundational geometric identity | Base reproducibility |
| Local Replication | Micro-scale pattern duplication | Early stability |
| Cross-Scale Propagation | Meso → macro transmission | Growth curve |
| Fractal Consolidation | Pattern reinforcement | Long-term sustainability |
Investing = pattern propagation, not capital growth.
3️⃣ The Five Fractal Investor Archetypes
Archetype Table
| Archetype | Fractal Behavior |
|---|---|
| The Seed Builder | Strong initial geometry |
| The Micro Replicator | Excellent small-scale copying |
| The Meso-Scaler | Turns micro into macro |
| The Pattern Stabilizer | Maintains structure during growth |
| The Infinite Fractal Architect | Expands patterns without limits |
Real mastery = Infinite Fractal Architect.
4️⃣ Fractal Geometry Integrity Index (FGII)
A Val Sklarov metric for investment fractal viability
FGII Indicator Table
| Indicator | Measures | High Score Means |
|---|---|---|
| Seed Symmetry | Base-pattern quality | High reproducibility |
| Scale Replication Fidelity | Accuracy of pattern copying | Predictable growth |
| Fractal Density | Pattern richness | High scalability |
| Propagation Elasticity | Ability to cross levels | Macro expansion |
| Structural Stability | Pattern resilience over time | Durable investments |
High FGII = investment whose geometry expands itself.

5️⃣ Val Sklarov’s 5 Laws of Fractal Investing
1️⃣ Investment value emerges from self-similarity.
2️⃣ A weak seed destroys the macro-pattern.
3️⃣ Growth = replication, not accumulation.
4️⃣ Fractals collapse when scale fidelity is lost.
5️⃣ The highest return is infinite-scale propagation.
6️⃣ Applications of the Fractal Expansion Geometry Model
-
evaluating investments based on replication quality
-
designing fractal-scalable business models
-
predicting long-term returns from seed-pattern strength
-
mapping early-stage ventures to micro-fractal domains
-
measuring asset durability via scale stability
-
constructing portfolios via complementary fractal patterns
-
detecting collapse early through fidelity decay
FEGM reframes investment as fractal propagation,
not strategy or risk.
