I’m being cautious for now. I sold my $PETR4 shares at nearly their peak for just under 8€, and I did the same with just under half of my $VAR shares—Klingbeil was happy about that. I won’t be buying $PETR4 again. The dividend has been cut back, and on top of that, you now have to pay withholding tax. I can see VAR going back up to around or just under 3 euros.

@Dividendenopi I sold my $PETR4 shares at 7.60 euros. I don't like the newly introduced withholding tax either, but maybe I'll buy a few more shares if the price stays at the current level or drops a bit more and I "make some money." 😉

•There are definitely alternatives in the high-yield sector, especially in Scandinavia. Yes, the withholding tax there is even more of a hassle at first. But once you get the hang of it and the tax office has figured it out, the withheld portion comes through reliably and with little effort. Even though Norway has now revamped its refund platform. When the weather turns bad, I’ll post a detailed update. Until then, in addition to $VAR, you might want to check out $AKRBP 😉

@Dividendenopi That sounds great. Yeah, once the temperatures drop again. It’s brutally hot here, too—the apartment is absolutely sweltering 😵💫 🔥🔥. I think I’ll head out to the countryside this weekend—I’ve got an 80-centimeter-thick rubble stone wall there, so it should be more bearable.
