The massive expansion of data centers is leading to a sharp rise in electricity demand, particularly in the USA.

According to S&P Global, data centers there will require almost three times as much electricity by 2030 as in 2024. In addition to renewable energies and fossil sources, flexible gas-fired power plants and, in future, nuclear power will also gain in importance. ----> $NUKL (-0,57 %)

Vistra is benefiting from this development in particular, as it is broadly positioned and has long-term contracts with Microsoft and Amazon, among others.

Operating profit is expected to increase by at least 15% in 2026. Revenue and profit are likely to grow faster than previously expected over the next few years.

Copied for better readability:

"Vistra, US winner with electricity for AI Similar to mass storage, the massive construction of AI data centers with enormous energy requirements, especially in the USA, is also leading to supply bottlenecks for electricity. Compared to AI storage systems, however, these are much more difficult and much more time-consuming to get under control. According to calculations by data service provider S&P Global, data centers in the USA will require almost three times as much electricity from the grid in 2030 as they will in 2024. In addition to electricity from renewable energies and fossil sources, turbines that run on natural gas and can be ramped up quickly to supply electricity to data centers on site, nuclear power plants are now also being planned. The Texan company Vistra, which is broadly positioned with fossil and green electricity, is a big winner in this development. Vistra is already supplying Microsoft and Amazon's AI data centers with solar power on a long-term basis. By 2026

operating result is expected to increase by at least 15 percent. With electricity capacities in short supply over the next few years, Vistra's turnover and profit are likely to

should now grow more strongly than previously estimated."

Artificial Intelligence is not just a software revolution; it's an energy. With the exponential growth of data centers, the demand for clean, constant and scalable energy has put the nuclear sector in the spotlight. But investing in nuclear is not just about buying uranium.

1. Tier 1: Mining (The Base)

2. Tier 2: The Fuel Cycle (The Funnel)

3. Tier 3: The Innovators (SMRs - The Future)

4. Tier 4: Engineering and Operation (The Execution)

Why NUKL?

Unlike other ETFs that focus 90% only on mining, the NUKL offers the diversity needed to capture value throughout the supply chain. It is the tactical choice for those looking for

• Sector diversification: Less dependence on the volatility of the uranium spot price.
• Tax Efficiency: In the UCITS (Accumulation)ideal for European investors aiming for the long term without annual taxation of dividends.

If AI is the engine of the new economy, nuclear energy is the fuel.

The 'competitive advantage' of $NUKL (-0,57 %) lies in its exposure to a sector with high entry barriers and growing global strategic relevance. The companies in the ETF's portfolio benefit from specialized technologies, complex regulatory licenses and capital-intensive infrastructures, creating a significant 'moat'. The diversification inherent in an ETF mitigates the risk of individual companies, but performance is intrinsically linked to the dynamics of the nuclear sector.

After a stable October (+6.2%), there was a clear countermovement in November.

My portfolio fell to 39.328€ and was thus -3,9% compared to the previous month.

The main drivers were the strong sell-offs in AI software, uranium, mining and defense - precisely those areas that are overweighted in my allocation.

Despite the setback, the year as a whole remains strong:

👉 Year-to-date I am still at +20.4% - solidly in the green.

1st performance & comparison 🚀

November was clearly characterized by risk-off mode. While broader indices remained stable, highly volatile future themes corrected much more strongly.

My portfolio:
-3,9%

NASDAQ 100:
-2,56%

S&P 500:
-0,49%

DAX:
-0,55%

FTSE All-World:
-0,48%

The underperformance is fully explainable:

Uranium, AI software, bitcoin mining and defense were under pressure - all segments that my portfolio partly tracks. But we remain calm and use attractive setbacks to buy.

Positive:

The long-term trend structure remains intact, YTD +20,4% clearly show: The overall path is right.

2. my savings plans & allocation 💶

The focus remains unchanged on strategic liquidity and consistent allocation.

Important in November:

👉 I bought Bitcoin for the first time.

This expands my structure specifically in the direction of digital assets - a building block that has shown relative strength despite market volatility. We entered at €74665 and are trying to use the 30% drop since the ATH to build up a small anti-cyclical position.

My savings plans are continuing as usual and remain the tactical tool for exploiting market opportunities in a disciplined and unemotional manner.

3rd top mover in November 🟢

The month was led by Nubank ($NU (-2,79 %)), which was up +8,06 % benefited from strong user numbers and continued high demand for credit in Latin America. Berkshire Hathaway ($BRK.B (-0,66 %)) gained +7,40 % driven by solid insurance profits and defensive positioning in the current market environment.

American Lithium (+4.44 %) showed a technical recovery, while the Bitcoin purchase ($BTC (+3,58 %)) in my portfolio with +3,39 % had a direct positive effect. Also small caps (MSCI World Small Cap ($WSML (-0,25 %)) +1.31 %) also performed stably. Tomra Systems ($TOM (-3,61 %)) rounded off the list of winners with a slight gain of +0,28 % driven by an incipient recovery in demand in the recycling segment.

4th flop mover in November 🔴

The month was much weaker for my highly volatile AI and energy segments.

IREN ($IREN (+4,57 %)) fell by -21,27 % the strongest - burdened by pressure in the mining sector and falling BTC margins. Also Cloudflare ($NET (+1,09 %)) also fell -21,19 % triggered by risk-off in the entire software/infrastructure tech sector.

The VanEck Uranium ETF ($NUKL (-0,57 %)) slipped -17,48% after falling spot prices and geopolitical uncertainties led to widespread profit-taking.

Tempus AI ($TEM (-2,1 %)) (-13,24%) and Rheinmetall ($RHM (-0,17 %)) (-12,99%) suffered from a general revaluation of growth and defense stocks. Mercado Libre ($MELI (-3,68 %)) closed the month with -10,00 % also significantly weaker, weighed down by consumer data from Latin America.

5. conclusion 💡

November was a classic rotation month: risk-off in speculative future themes, stability in value, fintech and more defensive positions.

After a volatile October with +6,2% the stabilization continued in October. My portfolio rose to 40.233 € and increased by +2,80 % slightly weaker than the NASDAQ 100 (+6.95 %)but still solidly in the green. While the major indices were driven by big tech, my portfolio once again showed strength in niche and future themes. ⚙️

1. performance & comparison 🚀

There was a moderate recovery over the course of the month: while the markets initially fluctuated, momentum returned towards the end.

With +2,8 % my portfolio remained below the NASDAQ 100, but performed better than broader indices such as the FTSE All World (+4.45 %) and DAX (+4.11 %) stable.

Particularly positive: the continued consolidation following the tech rallies of the previous months.

2. my savings plans & allocation 💶

My focus remains clear: managing liquidity and making targeted use of opportunities.

Since October, my new savings plan has been running on the Euro Overnight Rate Swap ETF (€ 500 per month) - as a flexible, interest-bearing "cash parking space" with daily liquidity and currently over 3.9 % return p.a. This allows me to keep capital ready to invest in quality shares in the event of setbacks.

3rd top mover in October 🟢

The month was led by IREN $IREN (+4,57 %)
(+25,8 %)which once again benefited from the massive demand for computing power for AI. Also Snowflake $SNOW (-5,54 %)
(+22,8 %) also made strong gains as investors increasingly focused on data-driven platforms again. The VanEck Uranium & Nuclear Energy ETF (+18.5 %) $NUKL (-0,57 %) rose significantly, driven by the ongoing global reassessment of nuclear energy as a stable and low-carbon energy source. Geopolitical tensions and supply bottlenecks provided an additional boost. While American Lithium (+15.4 %) was supported by positive industry news. Also CrowdStrike $CRWD (+0,41 %)
(+14 %) also impressed with strong demand in the cybersecurity segment and Datadog $DDOG (-0,86 %)
(+12,2 %) benefited from robust cloud spending by large companies.

4th flop mover in October 🔴

On the losing side was Ferrari $RACE (-4,73 %)
(-17,1 %)which was burdened by profit-taking and a more cautious outlook after a strong summer quarter. Tomra Systems $TOM (-3,61 %)
(-15 %) corrected after weaker volume growth, while Rheinmetall $RHM (-0,17 %)
(-14,1 %) suffered from geopolitical uncertainty despite a high order situation. Also Novo Nordisk $NOVO B (-0,09 %)
(-6,8 %) also fell further as regulatory risks surrounding GLP-1 once again came into focus. BYD $1211 (+0,77 %)
(-5,9 %) was volatile, weighed down by price pressure in China, while even Berkshire Hathaway $BRK.B (-0,66 %)
(-2,7 %) closed slightly in the red.

5. conclusion 💡

October showed: Rotation instead of rally. Techs with real profitability are gaining momentum again, while overheated stocks are consolidating.

With the overnight ETF, I am deliberately building up a strategic "interest rate anchor" in order to remain flexible in the coming months.

My focus remains clear: Quality, liquidity and long-term scaling.

$IREN (+4,57 %)

$NUKL (-0,57 %)

I bought more Iren and Nukl this morning.

I now have an even entry price of €46.00 and just over 30 shares in Iren .

The whole thing is very risky, as the share could still fall considerably.

Nevertheless, I assume that the $50 mark (or just below it) will hold. Even if I am wrong and it does fall further, I believe that it will turn sharply upwards in the foreseeable future and see a potential of several 100 %.

• 50 shares $VWRL (-0,21 %) bought back cheaper 😎 The rest will follow in the next few days/weeks

• $EQQQ (-0,23 %) I'll wait a little longer, or maybe I'll give priority to financing 🥲

• $1810 (-3,21 %) and $ARM (-2,68 %) minimally topped up. Buy the dip

• $VUSA (-0,2 %) - $HMWO (-0,3 %) - $BTC (+3,58 %) one off-plan purchase each. Buy & Hold

• My $AMD (+6,97 %) short has also performed well. My other warrants have very large KO distances and are held.

(of course I'm luckier than I am smart, but on the other hand it's crazy to believe that the stock market only ever goes in one direction 🤭)

$NUKL (-0,57 %) 🤓

I wanted to refresh my wife's portfolio and not just put it into an MSCI World or FTSI World. So I asked ChatGPT how I can set up a savings plan with the following conditions:

Individual positions < 10%

Individual stocks: Siemens AG, Microsoft, BTC and gold

Defense industry

Construction and infrastructure sector

Momentum

Robots sector

AI sector

Nuclear industry

The following constrellation came out at 2x200€/month:

Individual stocks: 32%

8% Siemens AG $SIE (+1,2 %) 2x16€ =32,00 €

8% Microsoft $MSFT (-1,74 %) 2x16€ =32,00 €

8% Bitcoin $BTC (+3,58 %) 2x16€=32,00 €

8% Gold $WGLD (-0,07 %) 2x16€=32,00 €

ETFs 68%:

20% multifactor ETF $IBCZ (-0,2 %) 2x 40€ = 80€

12% Robotics ETF $AAKI (+0,83 %) 2x 24€ = 48 €

12% AI ETF $INTL (-0,83 %) 2x24€ = 48 €

12% Nuclear ETF $NUKL (-0,57 %) 2x24€ = 48 €

7% Infrastructure ETF $EXV8 (-2,52 %) 2x14€ = 28 €

5% Defense ETF $ASWC (-0,71 %) 2x10€ = 20 €

Why all this:

The selection offers better access to momentum in the short, medium and long term and less vola in the overall picture. A total of 570 companies are included and 2 assets.

I would be very happy to receive feedback or suggestions. Thank you!

Hello Community,

July is history and here is my usual transparent monthly review directly from the portfolio, which has now reached a value of €34,485. It was a month that perfectly demonstrated the importance of a clear strategy and a steady hand.

📈 1. the performance: solid in a turbulent environment

I am satisfied with a monthly performance of +1.54%. As the chart shows, I was able to outperform the DAX (+0.57%), but was slightly behind the S&P 500 (+2.20%) and the strong NASDAQ100 (+6,35%). The result reflects my portfolio: a high tech component, which benefited from the strength of the US indices, but also positions in Europe and China, which held back in some cases.

2. my purchases: anti-cyclical & quality focus

💸 I made three targeted purchases in July:

• Keyence (501 €) & Novo-Nordisk (526 €): Here I built up my positions in two absolute quality champions at the beginning/middle of the month.

• Ferrari (101 €): Following the exaggerated share price fall of over 11% after the quarterly figures, I took the opportunity to buy a small, disciplined tranche. For me as a long-term investor, such irrational market movements are clear buying opportunities in excellent companies.

3. my savings plans & dividends

🏦 The basis of my asset accumulation continued as usual:

• Alibaba (404 €): I continue to use the savings plan to consistently expand my anti-cyclical bet on the Chinese e-commerce giant.

• BYD (19 €): Here, the dividend received was reinvested directly back into new shares. This is how the compound interest effect works optimally.

4. tops & flops: a reflection of the market

🟢 Top movers:

The list was topped by my speculative stocks American Lithium (+25.00%) and Iris Energy (+12.32%) and the Uranium & Nuclear Technology ETF (+11,36%). This shows that risk appetite in niches is increasing again in an uncertain market environment. My tech stocks such as Cloudflare and Datadog also performed strongly.

🔴 Flop mover:

Here were the losers of the month Novo-Nordisk (-29.94%) and Ferrari (-6,56%). These defensive stocks underwent a strong correction in July, which I, as with Ferrari as shown in the case of Ferrari.

🧠 Conclusion:

July was a month of contrasts. While the overall market performed solidly, there were strong rotations beneath the surface. My strategy of focusing on a mix of a solid ETF core, quality stocks and targeted speculative bets proved successful.

How did your July go? Did you also use the correction in some stocks to buy more? I look forward to hearing from you!
