Hi everyone,

What do you think of my portfolio? First, a little background info:

About me: I’m in my mid-30s and have been actively trading on the stock market for over 12 years now. So I’ve experienced several market booms and crashes from an investor’s perspective :D

About the portfolio: I follow a core-satellite strategy with additional “income satellites.” The income satellites are used to generate income with the goal of creating a monthly cash flow, which I mainly use for additional purchases to keep the portfolio balanced.

Core: $XDWD (-0.3%) World ETF, $IMEU (-0.68%) EU ETF, $XMME (-1.8%) Emerging Markets ETF, $TDIV (+0.1%) VanEck TDIV

Satellites: $NVDA (-0.75%) NVIDIA, $MSFT (+0.23%) Microsoft, $GOOGL (-0.17%) Alphabet, $AMZN (+0.14%) Amazon, $HO (-0.22%) Thales // NVIDIA and Alphabet are currently being built up. The positions will both be doubled.

Income satellites: $D05 (-1.49%) DBS Group Holding, $KO (+0.03%) Coca-Cola, $BATS (-2.04%) BATs, $O (-0.28%) Realty Income, $VICI (+1.41%) VICI Properties

Others: Small positions for shorting and speculation. (Amgen, Vertex, SpaceX, BTC, Ethereum, ...)

Feel free to share your thoughts :)

...besides $BATS (-2.04%) and $3750 (-0.39%) the next value has now also -> $HAUTO (+1.19%) the 100% mark 🫠

$BATS (-2.04%)

Hello,

I have received a letter from Diba saying that I can join a class action against BAT.

What is it about?

Is it serious?

What do I have to do?

Maybe it's the most boring portfolio here on GQ when my first doublers are just the $ING (+0.36%) & $BATS (-2.04%) are... I started investing in 2023, before that I only tested the $EQQQ (-0.45%) and yes, if I had put 100% in there in 2020 and not let it run in the savings plan, it wouldn't be 94% now but a good 400% profit, but you're always smarter afterwards :-)

3 possible reasons:

1) A US federal judge has finally dropped the criminal proceedings for North Korea sanctions violations.

BAT had paid around 630 million dollars in 2023.

2) Competitor $IMB (-1.48%) is currently deliberately losing market share; the company would rather increase prices than defend volumes. What Imperial leaves behind, BAT can take with it.

3) On top of this, the 1.3 billion pound share buyback program is still running. BAT is continuously buying back its own shares and destroying them. Fewer shares in circulation means that every remaining share automatically becomes more valuable.

Over the year $BATS (-2.04%) is therefore +54%.

I am bullish and will be delighted when we break the ATH from 2016/17.

What is your opinion on BAT?

Happy smoking 🚬

After much deliberation, I have decided $BATS (-2.04%) 🤑😬 to get rid of the two $MUV2 (+1.27%) & $ROP (-0.69%) each went into the depot.

With 72% and 93% profit respectively, approx. 32% p.a.📈 more than previously expected.

It was also one of my first investments at the time, still with BitPanda, so it was just a derivative.

I see the two new players in the portfolio as very solid companies in their fields and will improve my portfolio in terms of diversification in the INS and HC areas.

Some 'ash' has fallen off the cigarettes. 😉

In future, I will only receive half as many BATS dividends, as I have halved my position. $BATS (-2.04%) halved my position.
