Target return of 15-25% for 2026 already exceeded. Do you think a correction is ahead? What now?

It's only two weeks into the new year and I've already reached the upper range of my target return (15-25%📈) for this year. What would you say, fixed-term deposits from now on 😂🙈?

No, of course not, I'm raising my personal target slightly to 35-45%... But I'm going to be a bit more defensive.

A part will be put into the wikifolio of @Epi or a similar momentum strategy. But that's still in the making, because I'm still researching it...

Oh, the thank you goes out to $RKLB (-0.98%)
$PNG (-1.92%) and $IREN (+2.46%) . We will certainly see a small correction soon, but it can continue like this afterwards...

Let's see your YTD performance and your personal goals for 2026

@Epi and that's exactly why I'm becoming a little more defensive and dealing with momentum 😊

@Epi Halleluja

Tenbagger2024@Tenbagger2024

Stay relaxed and keep your feet on the ground. Just don't get megalomaniacal.

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@Tenbagger2024 Yep, the next correction won't be long in coming. But right now I'm just enjoying the moment 😊

•

Tenbagger2024@Tenbagger2024

@Klein-Anleger Hang in there, there's still plenty of time before the million. And you will enjoy it and cry. And we are with you.

@Tenbagger2024
What do you think about RKLB and ASML? Let it continue to run or is a correction in the offing?

••

Tenbagger2024@Tenbagger2024

@bull_investor_1994_
After the strong start to the year, I expect a correction in any case. However, I remain invested in ASML, which I see as a long-term investment. There are reports of full order books here.

Charmin@Charmin

I would be "okay" with a price return of 10 percent, 15 percent would be nice. I am "modest", despite the tech focus. In addition, the dividend yield - calculated on the overall portfolio - should be another 1.5 to 2 percent.

Everything is being held, acquisitions are planned in chemicals - despite the poor situation - because I am still counting on a turnaround, even if it is a long time coming. I am sowing the seeds here ...

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@Charmin 👍 Good luck!

S.A.U.@SAUgut777

The year will still be long and the crazy megalomaniac orange-utan is still here 😉

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@SAUgut777 completely forgot 🧡 the lovely orange man on Greenland 😅

•

S.A.U.@SAUgut777

@Klein-Anleger There will definitely be something to come this year.

•

Johannes@Johannes12345

You say something. Sometimes I really wonder what kind of stuff this guy is getting himself into...

••

Chris@Multibagger

I clearly defined my goals for 2026 in Deep Dive Part 3. That's enough for now. I also don't think it makes sense to adjust your annual targets after 2 weeks

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

Return so far 4.4% plus! The target for this year is my usual 10% again! And I would like to break the 500k mark! Still missing 18k 😉

•

Wealth-Accelerator@Wealth-Accelerator

@BavarianLion I agree with the interim status and the goals 👌🏼

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Wealth-Accelerator So 18k will flow into the portfolio through my savings plans anyway! Possibly another 10k through individual purchases, everything else is in the hands of the markets 😉

•

Wealth-Accelerator@Wealth-Accelerator

@BavarianLion
My year is difficult to forecast.
Best case scenario: I can still invest 20k. Worst case 0 😅
Currently still 12.5k short of the 500 😬

•

Basti92@BavarianLion

@Wealth-Accelerator It's best not to put any pressure on myself 😉 My savings plans are secured in any case, I still have 25k parked with Scalable, but I want to keep them in case Captain Orange goes crazy again and the stock markets go into decline 🫣

•

Alex@nitroxx

Next April is coming 🙈

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@nitroxx so go short in March 😅🙈?

••

Alex@nitroxx

@Klein-Anleger that wasn't a recommendation 🤡 but you know that 😀

••

Metis@Metis

Hold until the end of the year. That is also the real challenge 😉

•

DocTrader@value_crafter_1628

YTD +9.59 %. The portfolio is divided into a value block, a dividend block and a growth block. The growth block only accounts for 35%, which is of course where the performance comes from, as it does for all of us. I hold BTC, foreign exchange, gold and silver separately to maintain an undiluted picture. Annual target: 15% + savings rate + reinvested dividends (>6000 €/a). Good luck to all! 🍀

•

TradingHase@TradingHase

YTD 9.12% I still think I would be happy with 20% at the end of the year 😉

•

All-in-or-nothing@All-in-or-nothing

For me, it's quite simple: the goal is to outperform the "market", i.e. common benchmark ETFs. I'll be able to tell you what the target return looks like on 31.12.2026😉 And also whether I've achieved my target return. My volume target is much more clearly defined and definable because it can be planned for the most part.🤷🏼‍♂️

•

bull_investor_1994_@bull_investor_1994_

Unfortunately, that doesn't mean anything in my eyes. Who says your shares won't fall tomorrow? That's always just a snapshot.
Even if you take out your profit now, you'll still have to pay tax on over €1000, which is great, but you have to be realistic.

•

Pascal@Pacco93

@bull_investor_1994_ I don't think he'll understand that 😕

•

Patrick Schäfer@Hotte1909

7.5% (91k) but to be honest you have to say that about 3% of this was generated by 80% of the portfolio and the other 4.5% by 20% of the portfolio.
The target is again 20%

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@Hotte1909 stark 📈

••

Shiya@Shiya

We are almost identical, we also have around 25% YTD.
My target return is at least 50%.

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@Shiya Strong, so at least you haven't attached me yet 😊🙈🚀

••

Shiya@Shiya

@Klein-Anleger If I hadn't sold Rocket Lab so heavily at the beginning of the year, I would have easily sold 30% YTD

•

MrSchnitzel@MrSchnitzel

Very strong! Hopefully it stays that way.😅
Unfortunately, I'm only at just under 4% for this year.
$NOWThe stocks $RBRKand $FTNT have mainly dragged me down.🫣😕
The winners for me so far are currently $BTC, $NBIS, $IREN and $NOVO B.

•

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@MrSchnitzel Thank you! You're just saying 4%? 4% is 4% up, after only two weeks! Congratulations 📈👍

•

MrSchnitzel@MrSchnitzel

@Klein-Anleger When I compare it to yours or Shiya's, yes.
It makes you envious.😂
I'm really excited to see where we'll all be at the end of the year.

••

Klein-Anleger@Klein-Anleger

@MrSchnitzel when we enter a significant correction, you will no longer be envious 😅 but happy!

•

MrSchnitzel@MrSchnitzel

@Klein-Anleger If so, but I will also be strongly affected 🫣😂
Let's see if a stronger correction will come at all, I think at the end of the year we should be back in the +. :)

Schmon@SchmonInvest

7.86% - target is 10%

“Lloyd_is_water!“@Ash

Congratulations. 🍾
For me it's currently 5.5% YTD. Target 2026 -> more return than 2025. 😅

HODL-Humpy🐪@HODL-Humpy

Congratulations, it looks similar for me at the moment, I'm 23.56% YDT. Powered by Rocketlab and Irish.

But I also believe that Iren and Rocketlab still have some way to go this year. One or two corrections will come - or not😂 But I'm not planning to leave the rocket just yet🚀

How are things looking for you? What are your price targets for Rocketlab and Iren?
I also still hold a large position in Hims which I increased substantially at under 30.

So far YTD +24%. My long-term target is 25-30% p.a. Nevertheless, I have set myself a target of around +50% again this year.

•

K@TechNav

YTD +5.17%. The goal is simply to beat the S&P, so 10-12% by the end of the year would be enough for me.
If it's now over 20% again like last year, I wouldn't have a problem 🤷‍♂️

•

Mi11@Migu11

January got off to a wild start, yep. $IREN $ONDS $RKLB $PNG is doing splendidly. But $3LSI $UEC $GILD and $GLXY are also doing well, or are catching up a bit. But as many others here say, it's just a snapshot. I don't have an annual performance target. The goal is to become more concrete in my own goal. A larger sum (long-term) can be invested in Feb. I will again add to the 3xGTAA of @Epi, would like to add a long-term position in Nvidia and add to $BNTX. Otherwise, gradually liquidate several smaller positions (<1% portfolio value). The Posis are getting too much for me... Congratulations on your return @Klein-Anleger

•

HyperX@AxoWallStreet

Fixed-term deposits might be the best option. We'll see 😅

•

~ S.@Semos25

I just hope it works out well with Neutron, otherwise we have a problem

Pain ahead I would say 😆 Just be prepared for temporary pain, but stick with it in the long term.

•

Sven@Nevs1848

Wow 🤩 I've just exited my KO at $IREN with 160% in 20 days. It's gotten a bit too warm for me now, somehow I can't get the hang of letting profits run hin🤷🏻‍♂️

•

Alex@nitroxx

3.4 so far.... is room for improvement, but there are also a few positions that are stuck 👀

•

Frank@schlimmschlimm

Congratulations! My current YTD figure is 11.37%.

•

bull_investor_1994_@bull_investor_1994_

I am currently at 23%. The only problem is when you consider that another 25% of the profit would be lost if you were to take it out, the joy is immediately put into perspective again...
As I said, I'm happy about it too, but it could look completely different tomorrow, but that's what makes it so appealing 👍🏼

•

Leon@Investingyoung

7% always aim for as much as possible, I'm happy with anything over 15% because I calculate with 15% pa in bills how much money I have when I'm 30 😂🥸

•

Richard@trabajohombre

YTD 13% mainly because of gold and silver. A correction is very likely. I'm bracing for a big drop in the general stock market. Putting some cash aside to buy the dip!
