A lot has happened in my portfolio again in recent weeks. In addition to a few sales (including $GOOGL (+1.23%) and $NVDA (+3.5%)) from hot sectors, I have built up cash and diversified further ($CMG (+0.15%)
$SNPS, (+12.87%)
$BRO (+0.26%)
$AMGN (+0.16%)
$LSEG (-0.25%)). Further acquisitions and new entries (e.g. $INTU (+1.83%)
$ADP (+1.45%)
$WM (+0.67%)
$CTAS (-0.66%)
$RMS (+1.23%)) are planned. As short- to medium-term trades, I have invested in $Adobe (+1.51%) and $TTD (-2.73%) as short to medium-term trades. I mainly invest for the long term, but a correction (technology, cloud) including sector rotation (consumer, pharma, software) seems inevitable to me. I am therefore taking a wait-and-see approach and, if necessary, I will reenter $GOOGL (+1.23%) and $NVDA (+3.5%) again at the appropriate time.

Please let me know what you think.

I will probably share future updates with you every two months at the beginning of the month (November, January,...).

I wish you all a successful time.

I think there is far too little talk about the share. The fundamental data is great, but nobody is talking about the share. I haven't seen it in any portfolios here yet. What do you think of the share? $ADP (+1.45%)

Reason: Due to time constraints away from individual stocks and towards ETFs

Easier said than done: You have put time and effort into the analysis and have gone through ups and downs with them.

It's hard for me, but well, it doesn't help

Yes indeed too much noordusa always had a lot of interest in it, so I want to $NN (+0.97%) buy and $ASRNL (-0.55%)
add on and add to the euro div etf to spread something outside USA. Also $KPN (-1.21%)
and $WKL (+5.65%) seem interesting to me. I am indeed trying to keep under 10% by own money, but if by growth I get above that, I would be fine with that. (Let your runners run)

Growth indeed I am looking at: $SBUX (+0.35%) and $CMI
$DE (+1.37%)
$HSY (-0.82%)
$TRV (+1.27%)
$APD (+0.85%)
$MCO (+0%)
$ADP (+1.45%)

But also for a little more dividend $MAA (+1%)
$TD (+0.99%)
$AFL (-0.89%)
$AVB (+0.79%)

Main I bought when it was very low and interest rates were also very low, so so the risk was much less. Only bought once. I may well stay away from this for a long time and use the dividend for the dividend snowball.

Otherwise quite difficult to stick with these boring and safe stocks, but this is what I like and sleep best with. (Slow but "sure")

Fantastic explanation everything was indeed correct how I think about it and this helps me tremendously to persevere, thank you Paul.

I'm curious what you guys think of this YouTube money tree show

For reasons of transparency and that one does not only make profits with levers:

$ADP (+1.45%) closed today with -53%. The 208$ were my SL and that was triggered.

Still open:

Still $NOC (-0.99%) the colleague can not really decide.

And $NDAQ (-4.55%) where here since Friday again strength came in from the side of the buyers 📈

Expansion (actually in the savings plan)
