Tuesday:

Wednesday:
Inflation in Germany is falling almost to the ECB target. In April, the inflation rate was probably 2.1% compared to the same month last year. The inflation rate is recorded by Destatis. However, experts had even expected a fall to 2.0%.
Donald Trump's tariff policy is having a full impact on the US economy. While experts expected growth, the US economy is shrinking unexpectedly. GDP shrank by 0.3% (annualized in the USA) in the 1st quarter. In the 4th quarter of 2024, the growth rate was still 2.4 %.

The Bank of Japan leaves the key interest rate at 0.5%. It justifies this with the tariffs imposed by the USA and a lower growth forecast.

(Yield) Review April
After making my first small investments of a few hundred euros in the stock market in February '25, I added a larger amount in the course of April. It also took some time to develop an investment strategy; where do I want to invest? What risk do I want to take? Accumulating or distributing? ETFs and/or individual shares? If so, which ones and why? Are there specific countries and/or sectors I would like to focus on?
Only at the end of last week were all the answers to these questions clear: a long-term investment horizon of just over 35 years with relatively low risk. A healthy ETF/share mix of 60/40. Distributing portfolio with high-yield and high-growth positions and with a relative focus on the USA and Europe.
I have a good feeling that I am happy with my strategy in the long term and finally no longer have to constantly turn the entire portfolio inside out.
My ETFs and individual stocks are $HMWO (+1.22%)

Trump signs decree to mitigate tariffs for carmakers + DHL slightly increases operating profit + Mercedes-Benz posts another profit slump at the start of the year + Hims & Hers enters into partnership with Novo Nordisk + Spotify disappoints with outlook for the second quarter + PayPal disappoints with revenue
Trump signs decree to mitigate tariffs for carmakers
- US President Donald Trump has signed a decree to mitigate tariffs for car manufacturers.
- An order signed by Trump on Tuesday stipulates that car manufacturers will not be subject to multiple "overlapping" tariffs.
- Companies that pay tariffs of 25 percent on foreign-built cars should not also have to pay a 25 percent tariff on steel or aluminum, according to a representative of the Department of Commerce.
DHL $DHL (+0.76%)increases operating profit slightly
- DHL performed surprisingly well in the first quarter with moderate revenue and profit growth.
- However, Group CEO Tobias Meyer referred on Wednesday to the economic environment, which was characterized by general restraint as well as US customs and trade policy.
- The management confirmed its forecast for the year, although possible effects from changes in US customs and trade policy are not included in the targets.
- Revenue rose by 2.8 percent to a good 20.8 billion euros in the first quarter, DHL announced in Bonn on Wednesday.
- Of this, almost 1.4 billion euros remained before interest and taxes (EBIT), which is 4.5 percent more than a year ago.
- The free cash inflow increased by more than 17 percent to 732 million euros, which was also higher than estimated on the market.
- The same applies to the profit attributable to shareholders, which rose by a good 6 percent to 786 million euros.
- Annual targets confirmed without customs consequences
Mercedes-Benz $MBG (+1.57%)another profit slump at the beginning of the year
- The car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz continued to struggle at the beginning of the year due to weak business in China.
- In the first quarter, the DAX-listed company's profits plummeted by almost 43 percent to 1.73 billion euros, as the Stuttgart-based company announced on Wednesday.
- Turnover fell by a good 7 percent to 33.2 billion euros because, as already known, sales had shrunk worldwide. In day-to-day business, i.e. before interest and taxes, the result slipped by almost 41 percent to 2.29 billion euros due to the difficult situation.
- In the important passenger car division, the adjusted operating profit margin, which is highly regarded by investors, shrank by 1.7 percentage points to 7.3 percent.
- This was a smaller decline than analysts had feared.
Hims & Hers $HIMS (+2.97%)enters into partnership with Novo Nordisk $NOVO B (+1.21%)enters into
- Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk has partnered with Hims & Hers Health HIMS to sell its popular weight-loss drug through a bundled offering on the telemedicine company's platform, the two companies announced on Tuesday.
- Customers will get access to offerings of all dosage strengths of Wegovy and a membership starting at $599 per month, Hims said.
- The offer will be available on the Hims & Hers platform starting this week, it added.
- The companies are working on a longer-term roadmap of bundled offerings that will have a unique consumer rating and pricing that we hope to unveil in the coming quarters, Hims CEO Andrew Dudum said.
- Earlier this month, Hims announced that it plans to sell Eli Lilly LLY's Zepbound through its platform.
- While Novo's Wegovy and Lilly's competing drug, Zepbound, were in short supply, several telehealth companies were allowed to sell cheaper copies of the treatments.
- The brand-name drugs have since been removed from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's shortage list, which could limit mass production.
- Dudum added that the company will continue to offer personalized compound versions of semaglutide on its platform.
- Semaglutide is the active ingredient in Novo's Wegovy.
Spotify $SPOT (+0.52%)disappoints with second quarter outlook
- After a strong start to the year, music streamer Spotify is expecting less momentum in the second quarter.
- In the short term, some disruptive noise is to be expected, said company boss Daniel Ek on Tuesday, according to a statement on the presentation of quarterly figures.
- The number of monthly active users, an important indicator for advertisers, for example, is likely to grow less strongly in the current quarter than recently.
- The forecast disappointed analysts' expectations.
- Spotify shares came under pressure in pre-market trading and lost six percent.
- However, Ek remains confident in the long term.
- Spotify's freemium model gives customers a lot of flexibility in uncertain times.
- Users can choose between a free, ad-financed offering or paid premium services.
- In the first quarter, the number of premium subscribers rose surprisingly sharply by twelve percent to 268 million.
- Monthly active users increased by ten percent to 678 million.
- Spotify expects a further increase to 689 million in the second quarter - although analysts had more on the cards here.
- Sales rose by 15 percent to 4.2 billion euros at the start of the year.
- Thanks to lower expenditure on personnel and marketing, the operating result soared from 168 million euros in the same quarter of the previous year to 509 million euros.
- Here too, however, experts had expected more from the music streamer in advance.
PayPal $PYPL (+1.97%)disappointed in sales but EPS up
- Earned more in the first quarter of 2025.
- Earnings rose from USD 0.830 per share to USD 1.29 per share, meaning that the company performed better than the market had expected.
- Analysts had previously estimated EPS of USD 1.16 per share.
- On the sales side, things went better than a year ago: revenues rose from 7.699 billion US dollars to 7.791 billion US dollars.
- However, this disappointed analysts' expectations, which had previously stood at 7.85 billion US dollars.

That's me! 📊
Hello everyone!
I would like to introduce myself and my "situation" in addition to my portfolio. I am 32 and work in sales (field service).
In 2023, I bought a house (~€360,000) together with my wife and child. At the bank, we were greeted with "You are financing at the worst time in the last 25 years". The 4.7% or 4.99% each month is already a significant factor.
In addition to the house, child and hobby (large garden), there is only sporadic money left over for the stock market or through a small ETF savings plan.
When it comes to individual shares, I focus on dividend payers such as $DHL (+0.76%) or $O (+0.61%)
Short-term target by the end of the year: €5,000 portfolio value
