71It's time to say goodbye to this German share too.
The figures were more than modest and improvement is possibly in sight in 2025/2026.
I've put in a stop loss and if it doesn't hit, I'll sell on Monday for a savings plan.
The only German stocks I have left are SAP, Allianz, DHL and Derma, but that should be fine.

MicroStrategy acquires around 27,200 Bitcoin for around USD 2 billion in cash + Lack of growth impetus: Infineon expects further declines + Record summer at SIXT + Cancom warns of profit decline
MicroStrategy $MSTR (-12.57%) Incorporated, known as the company with the largest Bitcoin holdings in the world, announced on Monday the acquisition of approximately 27,200 Bitcoin in the period from October 31, 2024 to November 10, 2024. This announcement comes at a time when the Bitcoin price has surpassed the 81,000 US dollar mark - a development that observers associate with US President-elect Donald Trump's positive attitude towards digital assets. ...
After a weak financial year, chip manufacturer Infineon $IFX (+0.2%) is cautious about its future development. The company announced in Neuberg on Tuesday that revenue in 2024/25 (as at the end of September) is likely to fall slightly. The segment result margin, which measures operating profitability, is expected to be in the mid to high tens of percent range. This is well below analysts' expectations. Customers' warehouses are still full, they said. "With the exception of artificial intelligence, our end markets are currently offering hardly any growth impetus and the cyclical recovery is being delayed," commented CEO Jochen Hanebeck. Infineon is therefore preparing for a subdued business performance.
The company expects a weak start to the year. In the traditionally weaker first quarter, sales are likely to fall to 3.2 billion euros, compared to 3.9 billion euros in the previous quarter. The segment result margin is expected to be in the mid-teens, after 21.2% in the previous three months.
Record summer for SIXT $SIX2 (-1.06%)
The IT service provider Cancom $COK (-1.19%) is reducing its annual targets due to new political uncertainties, particularly in its core markets of Germany and Austria. The SDax company announced on Monday after the close of trading in Munich that sales in 2024 are only expected to rise to between 1.65 and 1.75 billion euros, compared to a good 1.5 billion euros in the previous year. Previously, 1.75 to 2 billion euros had been on the cards. The Cancom share came under pressure after the news was announced and traded 6.6 percent lower. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) are now likely to fall below the previous year's level in the worst-case scenario: Cancom's Executive Board considers only 112 to 130 million euros to be realistic for 2024. Previously, the target was 130 to 155 million. The management justified the pessimistic outlook with the fact that Cancom usually generates a significant part of its business with public sector clients and SME customers in the fourth quarter.

ECB interest rate decision today + Major insider buying at HelloFresh + Infineon reaches milestone + Gamestop to invest more with new share issue + Stubborn inflation puts investors in a buying mood + Technology stocks determine Nasdaq 100
Hellofresh $HFG (-5.04%) meanwhile, soared 14.7 percent. The main driver was a company announcement just before the close of trading the previous day, according to which CEO Dominik Richter had acquired Hellofresh shares worth around 10 million euros. Insider purchases by members of the Management Board are often seen on the stock market as a sign of management confidence in their own company.
The chip company Infineon $IFX (+0.2%) announced on Wednesday that it had achieved a potential milestone for the industry in the field of gallium nitride wafer production. Infineon described itself as the first company in the world to master 300-mm gallium nitride (GaN) wafer technology in an existing, scalable high-volume production facility. The company intends to use this to maximize capital efficiency in GaN production. According to Infineon, chip production on 300-millimeter wafers is technologically more advanced than on 200-millimeter wafers.
Gamestop $GME (-1.78%) share price fell more than 9% after the video game retailer announced it would issue more shares despite a drop in sales in the second quarter. The company, which became known as the focal point of the "meme stock" craze earlier in the decade, said it would use the proceeds from issuing up to 20 million new shares to fund "general corporate purposes," including potential "acquisitions and investments consistent with our investment policy."
Stubbornly high core inflation in the US did not go down well on the US stock markets on Wednesday. According to observers, this speaks more in favor of a "small" interest rate cut by the Fed in the coming week. The Dow Jones Industrial benchmark index lost 1.5 percent to 40,115 points and slipped to its lowest level since mid-August. The price losses were widespread and hardly any sector was able to escape the downward pressure. The core inflation rate, excluding energy and food prices, stood at 3.2 percent in August. "Housing costs have once again risen significantly, having already risen more sharply than expected in July," wrote Johannes Mayr, economist at asset manager Eyb & Wallwitz. Speculation in the meantime that the Fed would cut interest rates by 50 basis points had thus been significantly dampened.
Technology shares in the Nasdaq 100 fell less sharply by 0.5 percent to 18,729 points. Price gains by major chip manufacturers provided some support here. Shares from the renewable energy sector benefited on Wednesday from Kamala Harris' good performance in the TV debate with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. According to a stock market analyst, Harris' improved position is a positive prospect for companies in the renewable energy sector, as Trump is seen as an advocate of burning fossil fuels. Shares in photovoltaic companies First Solar and Solaredge gained 9 and 10 percent respectively. The fact that Trump was rather disappointing in the televised debate was also reflected in the 15% fall in the share price of Trump Media & Technology .

Feedback on my ETF and portfolio weighting
Hi guys, I've been a silent reader of many posts and discussions so far and thought I'd join in, because what better way to get feedback than to take opinions from strangers on the internet to heart?
About me:
I am 24 years old and come from Switzerland. I currently work in auditing and study business administration part-time. I started investing in March of this year. I would like to tell you that I thought about and defined an investment strategy BEFORE I started investing.
At the beginning, I mainly focused on individual stocks such as $ADBE (+1.65%) , $SPOT (+0.9%) ,$ENR (+3.25%) and $IFX (+0.2%) (which have performed well so far). Now I've realized that an ETF strategy is more sustainable than holding a lot of individual stocks, as I can't possibly keep up with every single company on a regular basis (annual reports, trends, etc.).
I started investing in ETFs with findependent (a Swiss broker). This broker buys ETFs automatically, with the advantage that you don't have to choose the ETFs yourself. Unfortunately, I noticed that the broker invested in 10 different ETFs, which I think is too much for a portfolio size of less than 15k, as I also hold other positions such as individual stocks.
So I am now reallocating and have found the following interesting ETFs at my neobank which I plan to invest in as follows:
$CSSX5E (+0.44%) 150 per month
$XDPU (+1.06%) 150 per month
$VWRL (+0.87%) 200 per month
I mainly plan a growth strategy, but hold 1-2 shares for the dividends. I plan a long-term investment of the products and don't think much of short-term gambles.
I will sell some individual stocks and put them into ETFs, I am still considering how heavily the ETFs and individual stocks are weighted overall in the portfolio, as I also hold a little $BTC (-0.05%) and alternative investments (whisky and LEGO). Does anyone have any tips on how I can define a sensible weighting?
Many thanks in advance for (critical) feedback :)

US antitrust watchdogs have questions for Nvidia + Sales figures from the semiconductor sector shock investors + Cost savings at VW not a selling point
The dominance in chips for artificial intelligence has made the chip company Nvidia $NVDA (+1.51%) into the sights of American competition authorities. The US Department of Justice has requested information from Nvidia and other companies with legally binding requests, the financial service Bloomberg reported. The antitrust watchdogs are concerned, among other things, that Nvidia could make it more difficult for customers to switch to the competition, according to sources close to the matter. Nvidia has benefited from the AI boom more than almost any other company. The company's chips have established themselves as the leading hardware for training software with artificial intelligence in data centers. This has brought Nvidia explosive growth in turnover, profit and share price. In addition to the chips, the company also earns money from software. Rivals such as AMD and Intel have so far found it difficult to seriously compete with Nvidia in this business.
Disappointing sales figures from the semiconductor industry sent shockwaves through the sector on Tuesday. Shares in the chip company Nvidia, for example, were hit hard, plummeting by almost seven percent in New York, making them one of the weakest stocks in the Nasdaq 100. The technology-heavy index recently fell by more than two percent. Nvidia shares had already come under heavy pressure recently following a disappointing outlook. Since the beginning of the year, however, they are still up more than 120 percent. This is by far the strongest increase in value of all stocks listed in the Nasdaq 100. In New York, the following also fell ARM Holdings $ARM (+0.48%) , Intel $INTC (+2.41%) and KLA Corporation fell between six and seven percent on Tuesday. Among the biggest losers in the leading European index EuroStoxx 50 were ASML $ASML (+3.19%) fell by 4.4 percent, and in Paris STMicro $STMPA (+0.58%) fell by 4.6 percent. In Frankfurt Infineon $IFX (+0.2%) lost 4.7 percent, which put them in last place in the leading Dax index.
Car shares were also weak. The VW share $VOW3 (-1.43%) slipped by 1.2 percent. The tightening of austerity measures is not seen as a reason to buy. DZ Bank, for example, said that the market's profit estimates for 2024 and 2025 could fall. This is because costs for restructuring and personnel measures could have a negative impact, and the news also implies a weak development of the VW brand. Other car stocks such as Mercedes $MBG (-0.53%) and BMW $BMW (-1.54%) fell by up to 1.9 percent.
