Xtrackers MSCI World ETF Forum

Hello everyone! I've been a silent reader on Getquin for a while now and thought why not post something myself. I want to start with a simple presentation of my portfolio and I would be very happy about feedback and constructive criticism :)

About me:

I am 24 years old and have been investing in ETFs, shares and cryptos since I was 18. My goal is to build up a long-term fortune and, above all, I simply enjoy dealing with the subject.

Strategy:

My strategy is to have an MSCI World as my core $XDWL (+0.79%) which I then expand with what I consider to be promising, solid stocks. I invest in the MSCI World on a monthly basis in the savings plan, which means that this position is constantly being expanded. My aim is to increase its share over the next few years so that it makes up more than 50% of the portfolio.

The savings plan also includes the MSCI Emerging Markets Ex China $EMXCwhich I want to use to cover the developing countries without taking the China risk. I am aware that I could miss out on a lot of potential through growth in the Chinese market, but I want to protect myself from political events and decisions.

The NASDAQ100 $CSNDX (+0.78%) has already been bought for me by my father and I would like to hold it for the long term, as I think it is a sensible investment / higher weighting in the tech sector.

For the selected stocks, I try to choose companies that are market leaders in their sectors or that I expect to see stable growth without too much risk. I usually buy these in several tranches and if possible (or if I am patient enough) anticyclically.

I also generally go for a (low) dividend yield (currently around 1% of the invested capital). I know that dividend-paying ETFs and growth stocks make more sense, especially at a young age, but I still consciously focus on dividends. Not because I think it's generally the better choice, but simply because I like receiving dividends and it motivates me to keep at it. So please forgive me for that :)

So, last but not least, my cryptos. I'm generally enthusiastic about technology and therefore naturally also about cryptocurrencies. However, after burning my fingers by buying almost everything at the ATH, I have become more cautious and reserved. I want to hold the selected cryptos that I still have now for the long term or, if necessary, to buy them in the future. $BTC (+0.14%) , $ETH (+0.52%) , and/or $SOL (+0.56%) in the future. Otherwise, buy&hold applies here.

I hope I have been able to give you an overview of my portfolio and look forward to your comments.

Best regards

For once, today's kebab day includes the large skewered meat plate with extra 🐑

Multiple ETFs on the same index are always questioned here, but can make sense under certain conditions and financial planning.

The 3 times 10 rule is explained in the article (link below)

If we take this as an example, why not always invest an ETF not for 10 years but for a certain € amount (based on the purchase prices). So why not look for a new one every 10, 20 or 30 thousand euros?

Wouldn't that also make sense?

Well, when you retire it looks wild in the portfolio, but does this actually correspond exactly to this tactic?

What do you think? I do it exactly the same way with one share, for example: set a € limit and then build up the next positions.

Constructive or bullshit?

Hello community.

As some of you have already noticed, the grandpa is very dividend-oriented and cash flow is the maxim. My portfolio with currently just under 250k consists of 64% equities, 21% Bund and US short-dated bonds, some ETFs, some bonus certificates and physical gold. As the majority of my income comes from interest, dividends and rental income, I have been able to live very well with my additional high cash holdings from overnight and fixed-term deposits. Slowly but surely, this comfortable time is coming to an end for a security-conscious old man and he is starting to rethink and restructure. I may be 60 and no longer have a long-term investment horizon, but I can still plan for the medium term of 5 to 10 years. 250k is still tied up for 1 to 4 years at good fixed deposit interest rates for me (3.8 to 4.5%) with an annual payout. Now ING has come across me and is offering 3.3% overnight money via an extra account for 6 months, which I'll take. The free custody account too. And that brings us to the topic. I put 150k in the call money account (yes, I know deposit protection) and set up savings plans on ETFs with 8k per month for the next 1.5 years.

Of course I can't get away from cash flow completely, but a little growth with a manageable sum can't hurt. The basic idea is 50% in the world, 20% in dividends, 10% emerging, 10% Europe and 10% Russel.

US should already be appropriately weighted, I am not directly invested in tech, this should improve via world ETFs and I would also like to consider the rest of the world and a few dividends.

I have made the following pre-selection (as I said, it's about 8K per month in the savings plan):

50% world, half of this in $XDWL (+0.79%) and the other half in$HMWO (+0.78%) . Both very similarly structured, TER ok, both distributing, but in different months.

20% dividend ETF, half of which is in $TDIV (-0.67%) and the other in $SEDY (-2.7%) The latter one-fifth in China, the risk is manageable, otherwise a bit of a watering can and overall a small US share in both, which I cover via direct investments as I said.

10% in $IMEU (-0.89%) which covers areas in which I have no exposure apart from $NOVO B (+0.73%) and $HSBA (-2.41%) I have no positions worth mentioning.

10% in $HMEF (-1.97%) China, yes over 20%, the rest is ok for me and also includes information technology and financial services, which are very underrepresented in my portfolio.

10% in $IWM (+1.43%) I am sticking to my US weighting and speculating on further effects from future interest rate cuts, even if some of this has already been priced in.

Finally, I would like to point out that I am not interested in the decimal place of the TER.

Overnight money will yield significantly less in the near future, growth does not harm my investment strategy, but it does not have to be the maximum return that can be achieved.

Putting everything into dividend stocks is suboptimal, so why not go "relatively risk-reduced" into ETFs in the medium term with part of my money.

Please give me your valued opinion on the approach and the chosen stocks, thanks for reading and have a sunny weekend.

Your dividend topi

After 11 months of dual studies, I can proudly announce that my portfolio has reached €5,000 for the first time - a small but significant milestone for me!

Hi there!

I wanted to ask if you have any ideas about which ETF I could also save in. As I am slowly approaching my late 40s, a payout is basically quite interesting for me, and it also gives me enough motivation when some money comes back.

I am currently saving actively:

$TDIV (-0.67%) and $XDWL (+0.79%)

But now I ask myself the question, does it make sense to add a third distributing, yet growing ETF? The US portion of XDWL was too large for me and TDIV somehow came in handy, but is something missing? (I've never had good feelings about EM so far)

The plan at the moment is to put 300 euros into the TDIV and 300 euros into the XDWL each month.

On top of that, I'm averaging around 130 euros a month in dividends, which I want to split between the two.

I also have a further 400 euros available, which I will either divide between the two, although I feel I would weight the TDIV higher (?) or prefer to invest in a third ETF, but which one?

As I said, a distribution (something like 1.5-2.5%) and growth are important to me.

What would you recommend?

Thank you!

Right now $XDWL (+0.79%) buy more yes/no?

Hi there,

I wanted to do some reallocating now or pay in enough so that the positions fit again. My goal is to save for at least 20 years and to have a nice sum for our son for his studies etc. The savings rate has now increased to €300

I would like to invest 20% each 10% in $BTC (+0.14%) and $ETH (+0.52%) in the portfolio. and reduce my $IBC3 (-1.96%) to 20% and the rest to $XDWL (+0.79%) and $FGEQ (+0.37%) 30% each.

Do you think 20% is too much for crypto?

I would be grateful for any opinions and suggestions.

Another €350 will be added tomorrow via a savings plan 😊
