A week with many events...

Why is Bitcoin falling? What is the ECB doing? Lots of numbers and Paypal completely shocked me! ⤵️

The week was very eventful. Bitcoin fell sharply last week, Paypal wanted to shock the world with news on 25 January, the ECB decided on interest rates again and there were a number of quarterly figures this week. Let's take a closer look.

Why has Bitcoin fallen so much?

3 words explain it: Grayscale, FTX , Miner!

Miners are said to have sold around 10,000 $BTC
BTC were sold. We are currently on the verge of a halving again. This means that the miners will soon only have half the income left. So they have used the increase to build up capital. They are investing in new hardware in order to be able to mine more. Electricity costs rise as a result and so on. They have to take profits from time to time to stay liquid.

Grayscale has converted the trust fund (GBTC) into an ETF and sold over 600,000 BTC. Grayscale's fee policy is not the best and led to further selling. Grayscale sold USD 640 million worth of bitcoins every day. This was felt by the market.

FTX sold 900 million US dollars to GBTC, generating a profit of around 300 million US dollars. However, another positive aspect is that all the new ETFs have already collected around 103,000 BTC and will continue to do so. The market will therefore continue to grow and profits will be taken from time to time!

Is the ECB now lowering interest rates?

No, they are not yet, but they are not currently rising any further. So now the ECB has also found the stop button. However, there are already rumors of interest rate cuts this year. But they don't want to commit to a calendar day, they want to reassess each time. It will be interesting to see what the market prices in for the next round. The FED will be back next week. However, it is not expected to cut interest rates for the time being, but also not to raise them!

Did Paypal shock you with the news?

On 17.01 the CEO of $PYPL Paypal said that they wanted to shock the world on 25.01. That was yesterday and here's what came out of it. Apart from the fact that the exchange rate has fallen by more than 5% in an instant, they said that they are building in a new AI function that will allow you to get a kind of cashback with the Paypal app. So they are trying to jump on the AI bandwagon. But somehow, cashback via app is no longer a big innovation and the world perhaps expected something different. Of course, there was also very little information about what this will look like.

Economy on 09.03.2023...

Back after holiday. Adidas? Interest rates? What's up?⤵️

Yes in Meck-Pomm and in Berlin, is since 2023 the International Women's Day a holiday. Therefore, we had here yesterday free and have enjoyed the day times something.

The stock market I have of course had something in view. What has happened so everything. On Tuesday evening, Mr. Powell came back to speak and has announced that the interest rate increases may be somewhat higher again. This stock market has dadrauf actually only slightly reacted and yesterday already well caught again.

Why is that so and was otherwise worse?

Who is still surprised by this? One sees for months that the efforts of the FED, not so fruitful as one had hoped. So what remains now. One looks at the further and then pulls the thing longer through... the danger is that at some point the economy does not find that so funny in the long run. Or one pulls once clearly and hopes that it is more fruitful. Probably the duration will be reduced. But we will see that only in the next MoM. One sees that the stock market no longer turns completely free, after such news. Also somehow a good sign.

$ADS
Adidas cuts the dividend and loses massively in sales. Dividend is from 3.30 € to 0.70 €. Sales have fallen alone by the end of the cooperation with the rapper Kanye West, over 600 million. Things are no longer running smoothly here and the share is also losing significantly.

$LEG
LEG Immobilien completely cuts the dividend for 2023. Of course, this could cap the entire sector today. $VNA
Vonovia is completely under fire because of the corruption allegations and could then also be very vulnerable here.

What else is going on?

I have yesterday my purchase for March in the portfolio done. Could be seen in my portfolio. $JNJ
I bought Johnson&Johnson. These had a very small weighting in my portfolio and the courses lead straight to buy. That's why I bought some dividends in my portfolio. The next buy is $PYPL
Paypal became. Here the risk is somewhat higher but for me this looks strongly like a bottom formation. Here I buy me some growth for 2023 in the depot. Clearly, the revenue and the EDITDA in 2022 fell sharply, but if the economy now starts again, then Paypal will benefit and the numbers should be much better and the turnaround should run.

I am excited and will hold here longer.

Also coming in today are the numbers from $S92
SMA Solar. These I have bought then yes under 40 and then sold well over 60€. had completely lost sight of the and was very surprised that the were now already over 80. The have times a strong turnaround put down. On the figures today I am curious!

Economy on 23.02.2024...

What a week on the stock markets. All markets with new highs!⤵️

This stock market week was once again characterized by so many events. I think the biggest and what most people were expecting were the figures from $NVDA
Nvidia. You keep saying to yourself that this must come to an end at some point, but Nvidia continues to meet all expectations and in some cases even exceed them. Some analysts have also raised their forecasts to over 1000$. Many, however, only towards 800$. Nevertheless, there is still a lot of meat there and if Nvidia continues to deliver, it will remain exciting.

We have also seen the other example. $SMCI
Super Micro Computer was simply overbought beyond measure. Even the way so many people jumped in before the market closed on Friday at a striking $1,000 mark. The fact that such a mark is sometimes used for profit-taking is nothing new. But it is generally very difficult to look at these things rationally.

Markets in #japan , have also risen sharply this week. Have you ever looked at this market and made any investments in this area?

Dividends have also been a strong theme this week:

$ALV
Allianz: the new dividend policy already applies to the 2023 financial year, so the Board of Management is proposing an increase in the dividend from 11.40 to 13.80 euros per share for 2023. Will be raised from an otherwise 50% payout ratio to 60%.

The pharmaceutical and agrochemical group $BAYN
Bayer is adjusting its dividend policy and drastically reducing its profit distribution. A dividend of only EUR 0.11 is to be paid for 2023, compared to EUR 2.40 in the previous year.

Let's take a look at today's trading day.
