Student job
Hello dear people on getquin, I am 19 years old and today you can marvel at my portfolio. I worked as a software developer at a web dev company during my school days and have been studying since October after graduating with a 2.0. The main part comes from the source described above, a few savings and Christmas money of 100-200 euros have certainly also flowed into it.
As I am relatively young, I think I can cope with the 50% $BTC (+0.25%) share, even if it will certainly send a shiver down the spine of one or two people.
I expect the relatively small individual share positions ( $HOOD (+9.49%) , $7974 (-2.06%) ), these are rather positions that reflect my fun and my interest in the stock market... well.
I had no interest in spending money on traveling etc. Often earned more than my classmates which felt kind of weird, I don't know...
Autism diagnosis pending.
Don't be too hard on me... or something?
RobinHood long?
Hello, would it be wise to go long $HOOD (+9.49%) before the quarterly figures?
Caterpillar reported poor figures today and the share is up in pre-market trading
No end in sight 💥

The S&P 500 has now lost 2.5 trillion US dollars since its high on April 9 after the 90-day tariff break. Current level-3% drop.

You can't make this stuff up:

This will indeed be a dark red chart tomorrow when we get the data reconciliation here.
The chaos in Washington is getting worse. The tax authority gets a new boss for the third time in a short space of time.
Savings in the Ministry of Health are massively disrupting drug approvals.
Vola= profits?
I joined another broker $HOOD (+9.49%) entered due to the stock market trading. The vola should allow profits to rise, at the same time the valuation has now fallen so much that I believe it is a fair entry point. The introduction to the bank also came at a good time. What do the usual representatives think? The valuation is like Schwab, despite more agility. At the same time, the profits are coming from very risky areas.
