Dear Community,

I am 25 years old and have been in the world of investing since 2022. I restructured my portfolio 1.5 years ago and opted for the $VWCE (-0.66%) with a 70% savings rate, the $GGRP (-0.63%) and the $FGEQ (-0.45%) each with a 15% savings rate. My goal is to save for retirement. At the moment I'm still studying and therefore can't invest large sums yet, but I still want to have a fixed strategy and keep feeding it as soon as I earn money and let it run until I retire. Lately I've been doing some more thinking and research and I'm generally satisfied. I know the ETFs have overlaps, but they complement each other to some extent, e.g. through a higher weighting of consumer staples stocks, which are weighted lower in the $VWCE (-0.66%) This is also reflected in a slightly better performance in the current market phase.

As I like dividend distributions but still don't want to lose out on share price performance, these ETFs have proven to be the right choice. As I would like to build up a monthly cash flow in addition to solid share price growth, especially for the future, which will pay for my Netflix subscription now and perhaps even my rent in the future, I am considering adding the $TDIV (-0.47%) to include in my portfolio. This would allow me to significantly reduce the US share again and diversify the sectors a little more. In addition, with the 3 distributing ETFs I would have a monthly payout, which I personally like - especially psychologically.

What do you think of this portfolio with the 4 ETFs $VWCE (-0.66%)
$GGRP (-0.63%)
$FGEQ (-0.45%)
$TDIV (-0.47%) with a 70-10-10-10 weighting for a holding period of 30+ years?

I look forward to your advice.

Many thanks and best regards from Mexico City.

After two extremely good stock market years, the year 2025 is under particular scrutiny.

• After two years with price increases of over 20%, can it go any higher?
• How will Trump affect the stock market? Liberal policies vs. tariffs?
• Inflation and interest rate trends - will the central banks continue to lower rates or will inflation return?

What will not change is my basic investment strategy. I will continue to invest in dividend growth stocks and buy them every month via a savings plan - regardless of other influences and developments.

Investment amount:

In my private life, building a house is a big issue. My monthly savings will therefore be significantly lower in 2025 than in previous years.

In the last few years, my savings sum was usually between €1,500 and €2,500.

I will now reduce this significantly to approx. 700€ per month.

The rest will go into a call money account to save money for additional costs, kitchen, furniture and so on.

However, I am absolutely aware that €500-700 is still a very high investment amount per month.

Around half (€250) already comes from dividend income, which I will reinvest.

Investment breakdown:

This year, the majority of my investments will again be in individual stocks with the following allocation:

I will continue to overweight the USA and underweight Europe (especially Germany).

My main focus will also remain on the technology and pharmaceutical sectors with almost 50%. This is where I continue to see the greatest growth in the long term - both for sales, profits and dividends.

There will be no changes to the savings plans for the time being. I will not be adding any new shares to my savings plan for the time being.

In addition, I will continue to invest the net savings from private health insurance compared to statutory health insurance in the WisdomTree Global Quality Dividend Growth
$GGRP (-0.63%)

In total, that's around €90 per month + the one-off premium refund of over €2,000 for 2024.

The capital-forming benefits from my employer flow into an MSCI World
$XDWD (-0.7%) with finvesto.

In addition, €100 goes into two crypto savings plans every month. 65 flows into Bitcoin
$BTC (-0.4%) and €35 in Ethereum
$ETH (-2.06%)
Dividend expectation:

For this year, I also expect around 15-20% more dividends than in 2024.

This would mean total dividends of €3,300-3,500 for 2025.

What is your investment strategy for 2025?

Dear Community,

Yesterday you were able to help me quickly and effectively. I sold the tiny positions $MATIC (-2.49%) with a considerable loss and $ETH (-2.06%) with a small profit and set up a weekly savings plan on $BTC (-0.4%) set up a weekly savings plan.

In order to simplify and streamline the portfolio even further, I now have the following question for you...

To help you understand my portfolio better, here is a brief explanation:

The main portfolio (currently approx. 150k) is a core-satellite portfolio with 56% $IWDA (-0.62%) , 20% $GGRP (-0.63%) , 12% $WSML (-0.88%) and 12% $XMME (-0.26%) .

With just under 20k is still the $CSPX (-0.61%) in the portfolio.

I have also been holding a separate div growth portfolio (currently approx. 34k) with these stocks for some time:

$MMM (-0.49%) approx. 1500€

$MSFT (-0.42%) approx. 1400€

$ABT (-0.59%) approx. 3300€

$JNJ (-0.11%) approx. 2800€

$PEP (+0.14%) approx. 2700€

$PG (-0.15%) approx. 3300€

$TDIV (-0.47%) approx. 3900€

$WQDS (-0.71%) approx. 3850€

$FGEQ (-0.45%) approx. 3800€

$VWRL (-0.63%) approx. 3750€

$FUSD (-0.44%) approx. 3750€

I save the ETF fraction constantly, nothing should or will change.

I'm just wondering how I should structure the ratio of individual stocks from now on. Should I increase all individual stocks to 5000€ per position or all stocks except Microsoft to 6k? Any other suggestions or ideas? If I simply leave the individual stocks untouched, the money would go into the div ETFs in tranches.

Total TER at 0.22 (which is quite acceptable for me) - and the overlaps are known and also okay for me 😄

Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart and have a nice rest of Sunday 😎

Best regards

EvD

Last year, there was a distinct lack of snow in December. Instead, the portfolio did really well and I made progress with my crypto sell-off strategy. A small cold in the fall, despite taking good precautions, set me back in terms of ice bathing and hiking, but fortunately I was healthy again by Christmas. Unfortunately, that wasn't all... Time for a look back.

I present the following points for the past month of December 2024:

➡️ SHARES

➡️ ETFS

➡️ DISTRIBUTIONS

➡️ CASHBACK

➡️ AFTER-PURCHASES

➡️ P2P CREDITS

➡️ CRYPTO

➡️ WHAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT

➡️ OUTLOOK

➡️ Shares

$AVGO (-0.19%) is back on the tube. Wow, at +276%, the stock is now up for me. After the share cooled down a little, it went to the moon again in December.

$NFLX (-0.64%) and $SAP (-1.44%) are on a par with the previous month in terms of performance and are still in 3rd and 4th place in terms of volume. $WMT (-0.5%) . The retail chain will soon become a doubler for me.

The red lanterns will once again go to the usual suspects $NKE (-0.71%) , $DHR (-0.38%) and $CPB (-0.45%) . In terms of performance, all three stocks are down between -30% and -20%. They are the smallest positions in my main share portfolio with the $DHL (-1.9%) However, across all portfolios, the smallest positions are the new additions $SHEL (-0.64%) and $HSBA (-0.36%) .

➡️ ETFs

The ETFs are doing their thing as usual. This month, I immediately invested a refund from the previous year's utility bill in the $GGRP (-0.63%) and $JEGP (-0.63%) invested. I'm always expanding this asset class in particular with cash inflows. I don't care about timing. The money should go into the assets so that the stream of distributions keeps growing. I buy income and want cash flow.

➡️ Distributions

I received 34 distributions on 14 payout days in December. I am grateful for this additional income stream. My minimum target has been met anyway in this high-distribution month. The snowball rolling down the slope is getting bigger and bigger.

I already donated part of the dividend at the beginning of the month. This is based on the conviction that you can (and should) give something back, no matter how small, if you have the opportunity to do so.

➡️ Cashback

In November, I received €6 from redeemed Payback points, the equivalent of which I transferred from my grocery account to my settlement account. As already mentioned, there was also a credit from the utility bill. REWE and Penny have now separated from Payback, while Edeka, Netto Markendiscount and Marktkauf have joined. All three new stores are not in my immediate vicinity, which is why I will earn fewer Payback points in future. I will most likely collect the points mainly at DM. REWE and Penny now have their own bonus programs. REWE's will be exciting, as I can also save up credit with my purchases. I will deduct this discount from my grocery account and invest it in the same way as before. I'll see over the year whether it pays off more than Payback did back then.

➡️ Subsequent purchases

As already mentioned, there were additional purchases at $JEGP (-0.63%) , $GGRP (-0.63%) and $SPYD (-0.37%) . I always invest every little return or leftover money to further increase my portfolio. This buys me freedom.

➡️ P2P loans

I was finally able to get rid of Peerberry. Now only Mintos is hanging on my leg like a log. A mid-double-digit amount, which has long since defaulted, is still waiting to be refunded or written off.

This asset class will soon be history for me.

➡️ Crypto

All in all, December was another exciting month for crypto investors. Limit orders were triggered again for me. The last tranches $LINK (-4.62%) have left me, as has a first tranche $UNI (+4.03%) and a first tranche $BTC (-0.4%) . I have invested the proceeds in $HSBA (-0.36%) and $SHEL (-0.64%) invested in the separate portfolio. I have already explained my underlying strategy in detail, which you can read about in my articles. Recently, the crypto market has been in a sideways phase again. I'm hoping for another breakout in January to trigger further limit orders, as I still need to buy a security so that the separate portfolio pays me a return each month. So far, only two out of three quarterly months are covered. The two new stocks have even performed well in this short period of time, gaining around +3.6% within a month. The last purchase will perhaps be an ETF. You will see more about this in the coming reviews. I am already looking forward to collecting again in the coming bear market and will then certainly write an extra post with the levels at which I will gradually enter again.

➡️ What is really important

I remember December as a good month in financial terms, but unfortunately Christmas was overshadowed by tragic events this time.

After recovering from my cold at the beginning of the month a few days before Christmas Eve and getting back to my daily routine (consisting of work, running, ice swimming, hiking and my love of finance), I received the terrible news from Magdeburg. I am simply stunned and ask myself "why?". I am not affected, I am not one of the bereaved and I don't know any of the victims, the wounded or the bereaved personally, yet this event brought me down on the evenings around the Christmas holidays. Loyal readers know that I am working on a closer relationship with my ex's kids. Even though my blood doesn't run through their veins, questions ran through my mind about what if they were affected by the horrific act, or me? It could have happened anywhere. At least in the event of my untimely demise, I also made appropriate arrangements in the last few days of the year to ensure that what I leave behind ends up where I want it to be. I spent the turn of the year with the kids and the time I spent with them was the best end to the year imaginable. It's nice when connections continue to exist and you remain part of the life of the Kampfzwerge and can continue to accompany them through life.

➡️ Outlook

New year, new luck. I'll be surprised what the new year will bring. There will be a separate post for the evaluation of 2024 as a whole. I'm particularly happy because I exceeded an important goal despite a few expenses.

Part 5 of 5
/ Review of the year 2024: In the first 4 parts

of my investment story, I looked at the years 2013 to 2023.

A mixture of highs and lows. While there was a lot of learning at the beginning, the last few years are finally bearing fruit!

Monthly view:

2024 was another very positive year, although December again resulted in a slight loss in the portfolio.

In total, December was -0,8%. This corresponds to price losses of -3.200€.

The MSCI World (benchmark) was -0.9% and the S&P500 -2.5%.

In the following, however, I would like to look primarily at the whole of 2024 and not

just December.

Year as a whole:

Winners & losers:

The winner par excellence is hardly surprising NVIDIA $NVDA (-1.59%) with

almost €20,000 in share price gains! And this despite the fact that I took my entire stake of ~€4,000 off the table in March.

In 2nd place follows Bitcoin
$BTC (-0.4%) with approx. 6,000€ price gains. 3rd-5th place

are shared by TSMC $TSM (-0.77%)
Alphabet $GOOG (-0.67%) and Meta
$META (-0.85%) with gains of ~€5,000 each.

On the loser side it looks very relaxed all in all.

Sartorius $SRT (-4.23%)
Nike $NKE (-0.71%)

and Bechtle $BC8 (+0.64%) have each caused share price losses of ~€1,000. They are followed by LVMH $MC (+0.22%) with share price losses of €500 and Amgen $AMGN (+0.11%) with €200.

All in all, share price losses that are not really worth mentioning.

The performance-neutral movements in 2024 were just under €20,000. This is a significant decline compared to the almost €30,000 from previous years. This was due to some private issues and the upcoming house construction.

My performance for the year as a whole was +28,8% and therefore outperformed my benchmark, the MSCI World, by 25.8%.

In total, my portfolio currently stands at ~347.000€. This

corresponds to an absolute growth of ~95,000€ in the current

year 2023. ~71.000€ of which comes from price gains, ~3.800€ from

dividends / interest and ~20.000€ from additional investments.

Dividend:

• The dividends in December were 17% above the previous year at ~€370
• Amgen is in the lead with over 50€ (gross) dividend every 3 months
• For the year as a whole, my dividends amounted to ~2.900€ and thus almost 25% over 2023

Buys & sells:

- I bought in December for a significantly reduced ~500€

- As always, my savings plans were executed:

- Blue chips: Lockheed Martin $LMT (+0.49%) Republic Services $RSG (-0.53%) Thermo Fisher $TMO (-0.47%) ASML $ASML (-0.43%) Northrop Grumman $NOC (-0.13%) Itochu $8001 (-2.99%) Constellation Software $CSU (-0.59%) Hermes $RMS Salesforce $CRM (-0.69%) MasterCard $MA (-0.22%) Deere $DE (-0.41%)

- Growth: -

- ETFs: MSCI World $XDWD (-0.7%) and the WisdomTree Global Quality Dividend Growth $GGRP (-0.63%)

- Crypto: Bitcoin $BTC (-0.4%) and Ethereum $ETH (-2.06%)

- There were no further sales in December

Target 2024 & outlook 2025:

My goal for 2024 was to reach €300,000 in the portfolio. Due to the

extremely positive market performance in the current year, my portfolio stands at ~€ 350,000 at the end of the year. I was therefore able to significantly exceed my target.

What will happen in 2025? The logical target, of course, would be 400.000€ to be achieved. However, due to the upcoming house construction, part of the assets will be invested in the house construction. If I include the property in my statement of assets, the target of €400,000 would of course not change.

However, as I am more likely to be tracking my liquid assets here, I will probably

probably refrain from doing so.

Therefore, my year-end target for 2025 will probably be closer to the final balance for 2024. So around €350,000 at the end of 2025.

How are things looking for you? Have you already thought about your plans for 2025?

Finally, I wanted to say thank you again for all the positive reactions to my investment story!

I hope I can keep up the pace with the savings plans 🤣 as they say @Simpson ? "For a simple man" (and I count myself among them) this will be a challenge. If so, and I hope nothing extraordinary comes up, then that's a great sum for me/us to put aside and create value.

Oskar is still marginally involved with the VL, but my employer is a bit stingy about that.

Happy new year, good luck in 2025 and, above all, stay healthy, otherwise it's all for nothing anyway. What you do for

Hi, my name is Max, I'm 18 years old and I'm interested in social media and the stock market.

That's exactly why I'd like to document my financial career on Getquin from now on and talk about it with you. As you can probably tell from the name, my goal is to retire at the age of 50. I would like to make this possible through my share portfolio. Thanks to an inheritance, I had the opportunity to skip the hard road to the first €100,000. However, as I was only 15 years old at the time I found out about the inheritance, I had a lot to learn first. Now I'm 18 years old and already know a bit more. Over time, the stock market has become my hobby and hardly a day goes by when I don't spend time with it.

How it all began

As already mentioned, my interest in the stock market was triggered by the inheritance I received in 2019. Since the deceased relative also had a great interest in the stock market and had invested very successfully for many years, my father thought it would certainly be in his interest if I invested the money too. Fortunately, my father is also very experienced in the stock market, so he was able to explain a lot to me. So it wasn't long before I bought my first ETF with him. This was classically the $IWDA (-0.62%) . I also bought a fund for the Asian region $JQ8Y72 . At the time, this was a recommendation from a friend's bank. However, I sold this fund at some point with a loss of around 25%. That wasn't the best start, of course, but it did teach me how to deal with losses. In those early days, I learned a lot about the stock market from YouTube, but also from other platforms such as Der Aktionär and Finanzen100.

The first individual shares were added in 2023. That was back then $GOOGL (-0.67%) and $DHL (-1.9%) . This was followed by other tech giants such as $AMZN (-1.23%) , $MSFT (-0.42%) and $AAPL (-0.45%) . I now have 17 different individual stocks. Looking at my portfolio, most of them will probably be familiar to you, but there are also some smaller stocks like $EUZ (-0.18%) , $NHH (-0.39%) and $LNN (-0.51%) I bought because I find them exciting for the future.

Past and future

Fortunately, my portfolio has performed really well in recent years, in my opinion. This year, too, I am going into the new year with around 20%. Tech stocks in particular have performed strongly and generated decent returns. As I am very optimistic about the tech giants for the next few years, I will continue to hold them in my ETFs despite the doubling. As things stand today, however, I have 2 positions that I would like to change. $DHL (-1.9%) will probably be the first stock to leave my portfolio. Personally, I just don't have the feeling that the company is developing as strongly as many of my other shares. Of course the DHL share is great as a dividend stock, but I want to focus on growth first. That's exactly why I'm going to $GGRP (-0.63%) reallocation. The current replacement is the $FUSD (-0.44%) . I like the quality focus behind these ETFs, but I don't need GGRP's shifted focus on dividend stocks, as I don't really care about dividends at the moment.

In September 2025, I will start my apprenticeship as a bank clerk. From then on, I plan to finally set up my first savings plan. As I'll still be living at home at this point, it should be easy to save a high proportion of my trainee salary. But I'm also making sure that it's not too high - after all, I don't want my quality of life to suffer because of my savings.

Building up additional income

I have been very interested in social media since 2020. When I was 14 years old, I started an Instagram page and reached over 25,000 subscribers within 1-2 years. During this time, I was doing really well financially and I experienced some really great things. For example, I raffled off 120 liters of beer to my community with a brewery. But I'll write a post about that in my subscriber feed soon. After all, the whole thing doesn't really have anything to do with the stock market, which is why I don't want to burden the homepage with it. However, if any of you are still interested, feel free to follow me and read the story soon.

There I will also explain again why I can no longer use the site.

I'm currently trying my hand at YouTube. I'm using artificial intelligence to create videos in the hotel niche. The results are surprisingly good. More on that soon ;)

I'm also currently trying to build up my reach on Instagram. I recently opened an account on Instagram, which should address the same topics as this Getquin account. If you are interested, you are of course welcome to drop by. I'll try to add the link to the account here:

Generation Aktienrente 📈| Vermögensaufbau mit 18 (@aktienrente.mit.50) • Instagram-Fotos und -Videos

With the help of these projects, I hope to be able to build up a more or less passive income in the future, which I can then put directly into my share portfolio. However, to be honest, I also enjoy them as they are, which is why an additional income is not absolutely necessary.

Nevertheless, I will upload regular updates to my feed, which will document my current projects and their developments in detail.

End

This brings us to the end of my first article. I hope I have been able to arouse the interest of at least a few of you and would of course be delighted to receive feedback and suggestions for improving my portfolio and my plans.

I wish you all a happy new year!

Possibly a controversial topic ;)

In the last few days I've been writing more and more in the comments here that I don't think ETFs like Fidelity Global Quality Income are so great, at least for young people. So that I don't have to write the same thing over and over again, I'm going to write a post.

As many of the ETFs compared here have only been around for 5-7 years, I can unfortunately only make a comparison of performance over 5 years. That's quite short, I know. However, it is good in that we had two difficult years. Apart from the fact that, as a young person, I would only consciously choose a distributing ETF if I were planning my portfolio for retirement, for example, I have now also chosen the distributing variant of the standard ETFs here for better comparability.

My opinion is that anyone with a long investment horizon will get the best return and probably even the best payout if they choose a standard ETF.

The others are suitable as an add-on or main ETF as soon as you reach a certain age (and retirement is just around the corner) or you have a lot of capital and want to live off the dividends.

Now for an overview (source: Morningstar)

$HMWO (-0.69%) MSCI World dist

Performance 5 years: 13.11% p.a.

Last 12-month distribution: 1.41% p.a.

Simulation, investment today 100,000 euros, 30 years with the performance assumed above (note: this is too high and is not intended to suggest that you could achieve this safely. The performance over a longer observation period is worse p.a.)

Result: approx. 4,000,000 euros

Distribution, assuming that it (the div yield) remains constant: EUR 56,400

$VWRL (-0.63%)
FTSE All world dist

Performance 5 years: 11.63% p.a.

Last 12-month distribution: 1.28% p.a.

Simulation, investment today 100,000 euros, 30 years with performance assumed above

Result: approx. 2,700,000 euros

Distribution, assuming that it remains constant: 34,500 euros

Incidentally, this again shows my general problem with the AllWorld compared to the MSCI world... When does it ever perform better? How often have EM outperformed DM?

To colleagues with an investment horizon > 30 years => Do you really want to leave 1.3 million euros lying around?

$FGEQ (-0.45%)
Fidelity Global Quality

Performance 5 years: 11.07% p.a.

Last 12-month distribution: 2.2% p.a.

Simulation, investment today 100,000 euros, 30 years with the performance assumed above

Result: approx. 2,300,000 euros

Distribution, assuming that it remains constant: 50,600 euros

Insight: I have considerably more capital with the MSCI World and potentially a higher dividend.

But: It is true that the 5-year dividend growth is higher with Fidelity than with the MSCI World dist, and not insignificantly so. It is therefore more likely that Fidelity will be able to keep its dividend payout constant than the MSCI World. However, the difference in capital of over 1.5 million euros is very significant.

However, it should be noted that this ETF effectively takes the MSCI World, then filters according to quality aspects (there is also the $IS3Q (-0.55%) which also performs better) and then filters by distribution. The amount of the distribution is at most relevant for the weighting. Or how else can you explain the fact that NVIDIA, the dividend stock par excellence (irony), has a not-so-small position in the ETF? And please don't tell me about dividend growth: Yes, it's great for NVIDIA, but when will I receive a distribution that isn't 0.03%? In 80 years? What I'm trying to say is that the ETF doesn't really have a dividend approach. It has a nice payout ratio and nice dividend growth, but it doesn't generate this by buying stocks with a real dividend focus. You can find that good or bad.

$GGRP (-0.63%) WisdomTree Dividend Growth:

Performance 5 years: 7.34% p.a.

Last 12-month distribution: 1.57% p.a. (reduced)

Simulation, investment today 100,000 euros, 30 years with the performance assumed above

Result: approx. 830,000 euros

Distribution, assuming that it remains constant: 13,000 euros

Why do I still think it's a good addition: it brings a few defensive companies into the portfolio or gives them a higher weighting. Depending on market expectations, this can therefore be a good addition.

In contrast to Fidelity, it also has a significantly different approach to the MSCI World, for example.

$VHYL (+0.14%)
FTSE All world High Div Yield

Performance 5 years: 7.62% p.a.

Last 12-month distribution: 2.97% p.a.

Simulation, investment today 100,000 euros, 30 years with performance assumed above

Result: approx. 900,000 euros

Distribution, assuming that it remains constant: 26,730 euros

$TDIV (-0.47%) VanEck Morningstar HighDiv

Performance 5 years: 11.07% p.a.

Last 12-month distribution: 3.98% p.a.

Simulation, investment today 100,000 euros, 30 years with the performance assumed above

Result: approx. 2,300,000 euros

Distribution, assuming that it remains constant: 91,540 euros

Now that's a dividend ETF to be proud of. It performed comparatively well in 2022 in particular, unlike the others. This is precisely what makes it interesting as an add-on.

It has a focus on finance.

It is by no means a stand-alone ETF, but in my view it is a great alternative as an addition to generate dividends.

(5Y DivGrowth 7.5%, lies between MSCI World and Fidelity)

____________________________________

Conclusion: In terms of the capital generated, the MSCI World is without doubt the best choice. With regard to the distribution, it is not possible to make such a general statement. In any case, there is no conceivable scenario in which I would choose Fidelity over the MSCI World for a long-term investment horizon and capital accumulation - not management. I simply leave so much capital lying around...

My recommendation for beginners is therefore:

MSCI World, about 70-80%, distributing or accumulating depending on your goal

A small engine (more on this in a moment), approx. 20-30%

For more experienced investors with a dividend target:

MSCI World, dist, approx. 50-60%

VanEck, approx. 15-20%

Motor, approx. 20-30%

I would go for Fidelity if I either have capital and can live off dividends, or if I'm approaching retirement and want to supplement it:

Fidelity instead of MSCI world: 80%

VanEck: 20 %

(Motor, only in the first case: capital to live off distributions and at the same time still aiming for further wealth accumulation)

About the engines:

Of course, the Nasdaq comes to mind and I would go for it in principle. I would also prefer it to the MSCI World IT because, contrary to popular belief, the Nasdaq is not limited to technology. It currently also includes a number of companies from the consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors, for example. Nevertheless, its performance is of course extremely convincing. I wouldn't care about overlaps with the MSCI world, as they probably wouldn't lead to any company suddenly having a 10% portfolio share or anything like that.

And then I recently dug up something else: $LAB2 (-0.41%)

Unfortunately, it hasn't been around that long, but the index has been around for 7 years and in these 7 years the index has had a performance of 14.78% p.a., unfortunately no statement for 5 years (Nasdaq in 5 years: 21.62%). So it turns out that it can't keep up with the Nasdaq, but it is not quite so technology-focused and not limited to the USA. I bought it myself because it offers an excess return over the MSCI World and at the same time includes companies that were not previously in my portfolio and shifts my weighting.

The fund invests in strong brand values.

However, because it does not generate such a strong excess return as the Nasdaq, it is not really an engine in the classic sense, but perhaps suitable for a more conservative approach.

PS: The S&P 500 is not included in the overall comparison because all the others have a global approach. That would be somewhat unfair. Of course, its performance is significantly better.
