I've been around here for a while, but have never posted anything - so: pants down! 😄
I currently invest:
- 800 € in the $ISAC (-0.01%) - which should form my "secure foundation" in the medium term and grow to approx. 60% of my portfolio.
- 200 € in $BTC (-0.38%) - as an admixture and long-term risk investment.
I have also made a few individual purchases and "gimmicks" to gain experience, but the focus is currently on expanding the portfolio. $ISAC (-0.01%) .
In addition, smaller amounts (€25-50) are invested in shares where I see potential - or simply have hope 😉:
- $AIXA (+0.53%) (AIXTRON)
- $AMD (+0.33%) (Advanced Micro Devices)
- $HIMS (+0.28%) (Hims & Hers Health)
- $CRSP (-0.89%) (CRISPR Therapeutics)
- $DRO (+0.64%) (DroneShield)
I am also betting on some sectoral ETFs in areas that I find exciting. At the moment, things are looking a bit bleak, but in the next 10 to 20 years I can imagine that these areas will do well in terms of sustainability:
- $HDRO (+0.37%) (hydrogen)
- $INRA (+0.28%) (green infrastructure / energy)
- $GLGG (+0.33%) (water supply)
I am a complete career changer - I had zero contact with shares or ETFs before and am now building up my knowledge bit by bit.
My professional background is in research (PhD in chemistry 🧪), so I'm no stranger to analysis, critical thinking and numbers - just not in the financial sector so far.
What interests me in particular:
➡️ How did you build up your knowledge of investing?
➡️ Do you have any book recommendations, sources, YouTubers, blogs or podcasts that have helped you?
➡️ What do you think people should pay particular attention to when they are new to investing?
I'm looking forward to tips, exchanges & maybe even an aha moment or two!
